Digital Layout

Hey y'all,

I don't know about you but it has definitely been a Manic Monday!!!  But instead of complaining I decided to share the only thing that went right today... a layout!!!
Isn't that awesome, and it only took about 15 minutes using my Creative Memories Storybook Software!!

Little known factoid:  I'm actually a CM consultant (ID#38443543) and we are having a monster sale on ALL of our digital products!!  If you are interested, you can order online anytime at http://www.mycmsite.com/sites/jesshdiame

I'm plan to start having more pics of projects and what not's in the future, so stay tuned!!!  Thanks for stopping by!!!

By the way,  the cake mix brownies were pretty good.  I'll definitely use my 8x10 pan instead of my 9x13 next time.  Although they were moist, I like my brownie a little on the THICKER side... kinda like me!!  :-)

Rough Day Dinner

I know that this blog is originally about crafting, but it's about love too. As a Southern woman, I express my love through food. I love food and feeding my friends and family and the food I fix often reflects my many moods. Sometimes, I get frustrated that it's just me and my daughter because I'll a whole bunch of stuff and we just can't eat it all.

Anyway, today has been a rough one. I accomplished my Couch 2 5k goal (Week 5 Day 2) and weighed 2 pounds lighter than I before vacation (that was really a shocker) so that was exciting!! The rest of the was tedious, awkward, and frustrating. Except for my impromptu lunch with my bestie because I left my sack lunch sitting on the kitchen table... thanks B.

I'm tired, my baby is tired, so we feast on my Quickie Spaghetti and Meatballs (would have a side salad, but we are out of lettuce). Quickie Spaghetti is simply frozen meatballs, your favorite premade sauce, 1 can of diced tomatoes and whole wheat noodles. (Gotta get some extra veggies in there, I'm just glad she eats them)

For dessert (Sira's back to school snack) we are having Cake Mix Brownies. I've never tried these before and I got the recipe from the pattie cake blog. (thank you) We're gonna try this with the dark chocolate fudge from duncan hines. Either Sira or my trash can will be devour them!!
