I hope you’ve enjoyed our month of featuring BBQ and picnic recipes. I know it’s very hot for many of us, but at least this gives us a chance to try these recipes out before serving them at a party. Next month we’ll be featuring dishes that require no heat for making. We’d love to have you join us!

This week I thought I’d share with you (with permission) what some of my fellow bloggers from the Dishing It Up Recipe Hop group have said about debt and budgeting. It’s funny how money comes up in our conversations from time to time and how passionate we all are with our different perspectives Mama Does it All said about a recent vacation: “We’re able to do it because we’ve been using the envelopes and really paying attention. Plus I convinced my {Read More}

Yesterday afternoon the kids were quickly destroying the house and my sanity (think cowboys and indians with 3 ft. tall kids) , so I knew it was time for an activity. The 3 of us thrive on structure so these activity times are actually the calmest part of our summer days. I picked another art project that my co-teacher did with her art classes.
