a thanksgiving page

I made a thanksgiving spread. And so I'm sharing it with you. :)

what am i?

I'm finally starting to work with some of the creative elements I picked up along the way. I think the cool washi tape is going to be one of the things that's going to take me a while to get used to.

be a good one

I owe you a page, or a few. This weekend was crazy. And it's not even Black Friday yet. I'm trying to build a routine where I make time to work on all my projects. Even if its only for 15 minutes or half an hour. Something is better than nothing. So, Yah. Here's today's page.... Thank Honest Abe.

I have the day off, so I'm gunna stock up on some pages today. So here's the one for today!

art and stuff

So I got into this crazy thing called art journaling. For those who don't know, its kind of like a cross between scrapbooking and artist sketchbooks and whatever else you feel like throwing in. It can be simple or complex, all done by hand or all found materials; it doesn't matter as long as it makes you happy. So here's a page. Every so often, when I remember, I'll post one for you. :)

new projects

Like I have the time to take on a new project. I really must be insane. Follow it here!

I'll still be posting all the other crazy-pants things I do here, and maybe by posting on another blog all the time, I'll get better about posting in this one more often. Maybe!

jobs, cookies, and how to find the time.

So my "real job" has gotten into this habit of only scheduling me on the weekends. And by weekend, I mean Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. This is a blessing and a curse. Advantage: I don't face the dreaded "Monday Morning"; Monday is more like my Saturday. Advantage: I can make all those pesky phone calls that you can never make because they're customer service hours are the same exact hours you work. I think they do it on purpose. Disadvantage: I can't hang out with anyone, because I have to work. Disadvantage: I have to take off for everything. I mean everything. Grandma's birthday? I gotta take off. Husband wants to take me out to the movies? I gotta take off. It totally harshes on my spontaneity. But despite all that, I do get some time to do some pretty cool stuff.

Like make these.

The cookies were really yummy, and they were make with cake mix. I want to try these with some other cake mixes, and see what happens.
 
And this.

And this was one of the easiest dinners I have ever made. I didn't follow the recipe exactly, mostly because I didn't have everything, and it still came out delicious. I also threw in some asparagus. If I did it again, I'd love to actually follow it, and throw in some other veggies. A one dish meal that doesn't take long at all. I will totally make this again. And there were plenty of left overs. :)

Today I'm going to knit something, so hopefully there will be some knit things up on this blog soon.
