use what you have
Don't we ALL have too many craft supplies?
Well, I am trying to use up some of mine.
Over the last week or so, I made up a batch of greeting cards.
all the supplies were things I had on hand I don't have time to go shopping any way |
I have been bad about not writing thank-you notes and thinking of you notes. Now, I am all set and plan to do a better job. |
Gavin had fun with the leftovers from these card projects. He really liked the glue stick. |

Making my kitchen easier to work in
My kitchen is a rectangle. Sometimes I had the trash can at one end of the kitchen and other times I kept it under the sink. Then I figured out that for this kitchen..... |
Gavin is a big helper with shaking out the new trash bag and putting them in the cans. |

Cute food just tastes better
Gavin is a little guy, little for his age. He eats pretty good and because I hope he keeps growing, I try to serve him foods that are packed with good nutrition for a 2 year old. I don't think he need any empty calories.
I am not trying to bulk him up, just feed him what he needs and is best to help him keep growing developing.
He is a big fan of fruit and yogurt. But he does not seem to eat protein foods to much at my house. Last week, I used this PC tool to make his pb on whole wheat. He smiled when he saw his cute little sandwich and ate it just about fast as little guy should.
One of my tricks Pampered Chef Cut and Seal - I don't know if they even still sell them.. I've had this one for at least 10 years it cuts around the edges, then crimps them to seal in the filling. |

the crusts won't go to waste. Our dog usually eats some bread with his supper everynight so I just saved the cut off parts for him. |
Gavin's lunch today PB on whole wheat, low fat cheese and apple sauce. He had milk, oatmeal and a banana for breakfast. Mid morning snack was pineapple and crackers. |
He happily ate every bite of his lunch. |
another masking tape label the plastic lids on PB fit any standard canning jar With the label, if anyone else in this home finishes off the jar, they will remember to save the lid for me. thank you Carol -for the tip about the jar lids. anyone have any toddler feeding tips for me? |
