Diy Photo Booth

Here is a quick trick for a photo booth/light box. I took a piece of printer paper, bent it in half and taped it in a sunny window. 

Ignore the kitty nose prints. And below is a shot. 

What do you use?

Welcome Home Tory & Nursing Top

We brought our little girl home last week! Victoria Sylvia was born 2/24 <3

As a breastfeeding mommy I'm always looking for comfy clothes to nurse in that don't feel frumpy. Nursing tanks are great but pricey! I found this on Pinterest and had to try it!! Essentially clip the strap and tack down with a couple stitches. The loops slide on your nursing bra and you are off and running! Easy peasey with a $5 tank and a whip stitch.

Chia Seed Pudding

Happy New Year! Here is a healthy easy treat to help ring in 2014! 

* Warning if you don't like the texture of tapioca pudding - this isn't for you. *

3 TBS chia seeds

1 cup milk ( I used whole because it was in the fridge)

Seasonings ( I used a dash of cinnamon and a splash of vanilla) 

Combine- I put mine in a shaker. 

Place in fridge. 

Stir after an hour or so- I left mine in overnight for a breakfast treat. 

Christmas Fast Approaches!

How does Christmas sneak up on me every year! Still so many fun things to get to! Jackson has been coloring ornaments for present toppers- my helper! But I was hoping to get his lil mitts into some salt dough too. Not to mention cooking, baking, and wrapping! This Saturday is my last show- 9-2 at the Frear Building in Troy (attahced to the Uncle Sam Atrium). And with Victoria (Kurtz Baby #2) coming in February I'm not sure when my next show will be. What last minute preperations are you making??

Brrrr

The nip is back in the air! Time to crochet and make hot cocoa! 

Here is a pic of a not so enthused little man all bundled up! 

What's your favorite way to spend a cold day?
