I finally have a place I can give my sewing machine a permanent home! I’m still pretty much an amateur when it comes to sewing, but my projects are few and far between because the only place I really had to sew was on our dining room table. Then it was in the way for
You haven’t had nachos until you’ve made Grilled Chicken Nachos. Grilling provides a crispiness to the chips and a smoky flavor to your fixins. Pile on your favorite nacho toppers and pop it on the grill. You won’t regret it! It’s been a pretty good 4th of July weekend so far. I worked the day
June went by in a flurry. I have no idea how it’s already July. We had a weird weather month, often with chilly and rainy days, so it didn’t quite seem like summer until recently. My goals for June were to get most of my final kitchen projects done (one more checked off!), make a

I hope everyone who was celebrating Father’s Day had an enjoyable weekend! We had our families over on Saturday for a BBQ. While it sprinkled on and off, at least the rain held off and we were able to spend part of the day outside. My husband loved the I Love Daddy shadow photo gift
This DIY subway art project featuring our home city – Des Moines – is one I’ve been pondering for several months. It’s easy to find ready made subway art for major cities, but for a smaller city, you’re pretty much on your own or ordering from Etsy. I was pretty close to ordering one, but
This I Love Daddy Shadow photo makes a great gift idea for Father’s Day or a birthday. Also makes a perfect quick and easy photo gift for mom’s, grandparents and other loved ones. Last week I showed you the Father’s Day photo gift I made my husband last year, plus some additional photo gift
