Don't Forget!

Don't forget to sign up for Sweet Bean's Shop Swap by August 5. More details here. I think I'll be making Parisian macaroons. I'm "famous" for baking/cooking brand new things for special events...sometimes to spectacular success, and sometimes not!

I'll be taking a blogging break these next couple of weeks. My class is coming to a crashing halt (3 tests coming up within the next week and a half), and I need to simplify a bit. Wish me luck, and check back in now and again to read my twitter update.

Away for a bit, and a Good Idea

Hello, friends!

I'm off working on another blog with my husband, and will be concentrating on that for a bit (too much computer = blurry-eyed Lauren).

In the meantime, here is my Good Idea. Take all of your old electronics, cell phones, lithium batteries, compact fluorescents, etc. to your local recycling center. We did this on Saturday, and it was such a trip, and totally FREE! We just drove up to our local Hennepin County recycling center, showed my I.D., drove into the warehouse, dumped our stuff, and drove out. It was a total breeze!

Come check out our new blog! We've started posting, but no design as of yet.

On a Brief Hiatus

My husband is out of town this week, so Hal and I are off to stay with Grannie. Mom is going to help me make Christmas stockings for MY family, and we will work together on a fun project from Craft Pudding (super cute things...Magda is amazing). I'm also hoping to snoop and find my Christmas presents. I'll post about it next week!

I call this: Beauty and the Beast. Enjoy!
