Well, I finally managed to get the last of the bulbs planted this weekend. Buying over 2,000+ bulbs at 75% off sure sounded like a good idea at the time. But having to plant 2,000 bulbs on my own, plus breaking out in a major rash twice, and being doped up on Benadryl {I’m allergic Read More >>

Why mess with a good thing right? I’ve been making these Quaker Oats Vanishing Oatmeal cookies for about 10 years now. And like all good things, they never seem to stay in the cookie jar too long before the HH or the kids snatch them up. Sometimes I’ll add in chocolate chips, shredded coconut, raisins, Read More >>
