Funny Stuff Afoot at My House

Okay, so we had a guest in our home this past week. My sister-in-law, currently living in Montana, but hopefully one day moving back here, came and stayed with us for a few days. We had such a fun time! She's a paper-crafty person too (and I think I've got her hooked on stamping. . . yea!) Anyway, I digress! One night while she was here, I made dinner. Scrumptious chicken apple sausages on the grill, but oops! I have no buns to put the sausages on. So we use bread. Which was fine. Until I looked over at Carly's plate and I see a small, discreet little pile of bread. Moldy bread. Ewww! So I look at my bread. . . moldy. Look at DH's bread. . . moldy. Double ewwwwww! I'm dying here and I look over at Carly, who is happily munching away at her sausage (and bread!) "Carly! The bread is MOLDY!" To which she replies, "It's okay. . . we grew up checking for moldy bread. I wasn't going to eat that part!" Talk about a gracious guest. . .and definitley not a Martha Stewart Hostess in the running serving her! :-)

How about you? Any good stories lately?

What's YOUR Song?

Fun little quiz I found. . . .my song is Born to be Wild by Steppenwolf. Hmmm. .. . not sure about the wild part exactly, but Born to Be Free would be right on the mark! Try it out, see what your song is and let me know!

Your Theme Song is Born to Be Wild by Steppenwolf
"I like smoke and lightningHeavy metal thunderRacin' with the windAnd the feelin' that I'm under"
A total independent spirit, you can't be held down or fenced in.You crave the feeling of wind on your face... and totally freedom.

Pretty Little Butterfly


Here's my card for the color challenge over at Splitcoaststampers. Yikes. . . this was a tough combo for me. I ended up with, for me, a slightly under-embellished card. I like it though-- not too froo-frooey! Thanks for looking and leave a comment if you like it. . . I love getting mail! :-)

I'm Having So Much Fun !


Oh my goodness! I am having so much fun making these cards! Okay, before I go there. . . "Bad blogger! Bad blogger!" You see, I'm having so much fun making cards that I forget that I have this brand new little blog that I can post them in for friends to see! Okay, after a looooong absence, here's one of my new creations! This is a CASE from Leslie at Running With Scissors. . . check out her blog! You'll wish you could relax in her garden while checking out her cards! Anyway, enjoy my little pretty!
