Scrap area

I saw these tv stands systems that look really cool. I am thinking I might want to get one, and use it in my scrapbok area. They have some that look like armoirs, so I can close it up when I am done working, and it won't take up a huge area in my living room like the table set up I have right now.  It just makes everything look messy and cluttered.  Time to save up some of the green stuff and possibly buy one. 

Scrappin’

Now the Christmas is over with, I can now get back to working on other projects. I need to get back into scrapbooking, as my pictures are piling up and i have yet to print off a single picture that has been taken on the new camera. I have over 4,000 pictures that have been taken just waiting to be printed. I spent some time today going through my scrapbook area seeing what all I have for supplies. I came across some Ferrari parts stickers that I have no idea where I got them from. The things you find when you clean!

Baking, baking, baking

I have been baking so much lately, that I am starting to not like baking right now.  Ugh.  

One weekend this month was the cookie exchange for church, had to make 6 dozen cookies.  Then last weekend was my turn to make cookies for church for after service; 8 dozen there.   

Today I have been making banana bread, mini loaves, and full loaves for gifts; peanut butter temtations for us.. Mmmm.. then peanut brittle for another gift.  

I boiled up 3 pounds of red potatoes for the cheesy taters for tomorrow night.  As soon as they are cool, it will be time to mix them all up and get it in the fridge to chill, can't wait to put them in the crock pot and get them to smell up the house!  Mmmmmm

As soon as the baking is done, then I need to get the house cleaned up.  Nothing has been done in here for a while, so I need to get busy on it!

Well, I best get back to baking.  

Bedding and beds

I am on the hunt for a new comforter set. I need to see if I can find one in the same shade of blues and brown like I have now, so I don't have to make new curtains. Although making the curtians was lots of fun. I would like to get one of those sleep number beds. We have one of the mattress water beds.  It has been nice while we have had it, but I think its time for a change.  I know that Trent would love to have a sleep number bed, but now that he has a loft bed, its not an option.  

Gifts for next year…

I am going to start working on gifts for next year.  Starting with this cute ornament.

Fair Isle Snowflake Ornament

I can do them up in different colors, as I have tons of yarn left over from various other projects.
