Crafting for Friends

One thing I am always happy to do is help friends when it comes to crafting after all crafting is my passion.

My friend, Jen, is homeschooling her daughter and son. She asked if I could help her make some work binders for the kids writing materials. It was so much fun making these books for them. The nice thing about making these in binder form is when the kids interests change so can their covers. Enjoy your books Amelia & Eric.

Family Dinner

Since Dave has been home, we have taken advantage of him being available to have family dinners at home (saving the money from eating out is a plus too). It has made me pull out and dust off my recipes and cookbooks in order to have some variety for the family. Fortunately, the kids taste buds have developed so I am taking full advantage of that to be creative.

This being the case, I found I needed a place where I could list all the weekly meals I make (other than the board in the kitchen where I post the week's meals for the family) so I could know what I've made and not repeat the meals we like too often. So, Tuesday afternoon, I found myself creating my weekly menu page and decorating my "Menu Planner" binder. It looks great in the kitchen too!! This week I've made 3 new dishes and each one has been a hit!!! It feels great to cook again too! :)
