Really Cool Thing for Gardeners


This is so awesome, you can make your own little paper pots for seedlings and just plant them in the garden when they are ready.

Time to Walk the Talk!


Well, I try to be all about the healthy food for my son. I am not perfect and sometimes go for convenience over the healthy choice. So in an effort to plan ahead and not be caught heading for the bakery for a not so certain what's inside type sugar treat for my son's birthday, I am deciding what to bring now. Yes, I really do have that much time right now to plan these things.

So I have decided to bring fruit kabobs. The little guy loves fruit and can be known to eat a whole fresh pineapple, so it is something he likes. The kabobs make it fun and cute. I was thinking of devonshire cream for the dip but that is really sugary too and kind of defeats the purpose of healthy, so I think vanilla yogurt (also a favorite of the little guy) will be a good dip. Yea...one of life's little events planned.

The above picture shows using straws as the skewer which I think I will do since kids and sticks=bad!

Free Magazine

Kiwi Magazine is a great magazine about natural and organic stuff for the family. I just got my first free issue of my free subscription by signing up for their Mom club and it was FREE. This month has a great project for kids painting with chalk board paint on terracotta pots and then planting salad fixings in the pot...it's very cute.
