Awesome Homemade Mother’s Day Gifts

Even if you’re too old to make your mom a macaroni necklace (and have it be appreciated) that doesn’t mean that you can’t make her something from your heart. It’s a great way to not buy anything, or at least buy minimally maybe. Ultimately it really is about the thought behind it. A necklace from […]

Lavender For Mother’s Day

 
I’m not a lavender fan, or at least I wasn’t. Suddenly however, lavender is having the best week ever in my house.

Lest you think this is just sour grapes, let me say that despite my protests the hubs always gets me something.

8 Gifts of Hanukah

Hanukkah is about faith, about the little guy winning the right fight, about perseverance and about purification. Why there are eight presents associated with it, I’ll never know. So that kids will pay attention? That’s what the jelly donuts are for. But, in keeping with the tradition, I thought you might like to know what […]
