Tick or Treat!

Spiders & Witches

Here are some new LO's that I did with pictures from our Annual Halloween Party...


My best friend Mindy & I and a few SPIDERS!!! We both hate them so I am not sure why I used the spider decals on this page. You cant see too well but the spiders have little black gems on them - too cute!


In the top left hand corner is my friend Alexis as a witch and me as June Cleaver. The bottom right hand corner is Ruth as at witch and Jimmie as a knight.

Camping LO

The pictures on this page are from our camping trip this past October to Hickory Run State Park in our state of PA. It was a beautiful crisp morning at the lake - perfect for pictures! The picture in the lower left hand corner is my husband standing on the damn. You can actually hop over the wall and walk out onto the damn. I got up the nerve to walk out and that's where the top center picture was taken. And the picture in the bottom right hand corner was taken in a tree on the edge of the lake.

Halloween Treats

A fun way to turn Rice Krispie treats into Halloween Rice Krispie treats is to add some colorful Halloween sprinkles into to the mix.

Use mini marshmellows to make the melting and stirring easier.

Garnish the top with extra marshmellows

I can say that there are NONE left after our Halloween party, not even a mini marshmellow! They were a big hit!

Happy Halloween!

New Scrap

My mom gave me these cute Hershey Kiss stickers for Christmas last year and I have been waiting for the perfect pictures to scrap with them. I'm really pleased with this LO - its cute and fun!

Chicken Salad

This recipe comes from my Mom and it is SO easy...

Chicken + Ranch Dressing = Chicken Salad

That's it! I actually made this for a lunch to take camping and I used canned chicken {you can find it right next to canned tuna}. You just drain the chicken and pull it apart with a fork and mix it with Ranch Dressing, salt and pepper. If you like celery {yuck!} in your chicken salad then I guess you could add that too!

Enjoy :-}

"LIFE'S GOOD BETWEEN REESE'S PEANUT BUTTER CUPS."

I'm sorry but there is nothing better than a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup. Nothing...




The most important aspect of a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup is the way you eat it. Personally, I like to bite all of the chocolate edges off all the way around. All that's left is the peanut butter center...the best part. I stick it in my mouth and just let it melt.

What's your favorite Reese's product and how do you eat it?

Odd Food

I am going to share with you my absolute favorite sandwich of all time. You may say ewww {like my husband is saying right now!}.... or you may say .... I think I'll try it!


My grandmother used to make these sandwiches and pack them up for a picnic. I can remember eating them at amusement parks, the beach and by the pool. They are great if your a vegetarian or just love olives. And they also make wonderful finger sandwiches if you chop off the crusts and corner them - serve them at an old fashioned tea party!



What am I talking about?


cream cheese & olives






Ohhh it is sooo good! Just take a dollop of cream cheese and warm it for about 15 seconds in the microwave. Chop up a few green olives stuffed with pimentos and mix it up. Spread it on bread or even better - toast. You could also try spreading it on a bagel for breakfast or on crackers for a snack


Just try it!


What is your favorite "odd food"?

In The Garden

Beautiful gardens aren't they? These pictures were taking the day before my wedding (5/20/2006) at my parents house.

I really wanted a spring time garden wedding and my parents house was the perfect location. A lot of hard work went into making the gardens just perfect. We had aunts, cousin, grandparents my father and brothers all outside working hard to pull every weed and plant every flower. Everyone did a wonderful job!

Pretty in Pink

Girls - I stumbled across the BEST website! It's a great place to avoid doing any work by creating and publishing fabulous designs. You gotta love it!

The coolest part is that it gives you the prices of everything - let me just say - I would have to be a millionaire to afford this outfit. But I like to dream big :)

Here is my lil creation...its so pretty...pretty in PINK!
