Michelle wrote me for some ideas for her baby’s upcoming barnyard-themed first birthday party. Here’s some of what she said… “I have some ideas…like using hay bales as seating, and the favors will be bandanas tied on sticks w/ these little barns I got in the $1 section of Target (gotta love Target)…I do have […]

This is not My Insanity–but I wish it were! Back in the middle of my April craziness, I got to sneak away for gourmet group at my friend, Jennifer’s house. She and Alicia went all out creating this evening in Wonderland (as in Alice in Wonderland) for us. I asked them if I could share […]
