I love dried lavender, don’t you? I love seeing it, and enjoy it’s relaxing, refreshing scent in the room. There is just something about it that makes life better. I had purchased quite a few bundles of dried lavender, so as you might imagine I had oodles of dried lavender bits left in the boxes. […]
Creating Valentine’s Day Charm
If you like this little piece of art, then I think we would get along famously. We would probably get along even if you don’t like it, because I like pretty much everyone. But the point is, if you see the glass as half full, believe the best about people (unless proven otherwise) like […]

I don’t normally do recipes, but this one is one of those super easy ones that never fails to impress people, so I thought you wouldn’t mind me sharing this one. I haven’t had a lot of time to do much cooking lately, but I dearly love to cook and have guests. So I was […]
