Where did March go?
| March 31, 2011 | Posted by Kate under blog party, hearthcraft, organizing, randomness |
Please, someone answer this question: What happened to March? How did we arrive at the 31st when I still feel stuck back at the beginning of the month? Who said this was okay? Time sure flies when we’re busy. And busy I’ve been! I’ve been working on a couple special projects for a friend as… more
Link up
| March 20, 2011 | Posted by Kate under randomness |
Here’s some links that have interested me this month so far: Mary Jane’s Farm – I have loved the magazine, lusted after the books, and have finally joined their forums. All that’s really left is for me to join their official sisterhood so I can earn badges, girl scout style, for doing awesome farmgirl… more
Reusable Bags
| March 16, 2011 | Posted by Kate under crafts, dog, hearthcraft, sewing |
I’m a big fan of reusable bags for shopping, especially grocery shopping. They are, of course, environmentally friendly, but I confess, that alone probably wouldn’t convince me to use them. I don’t care to sacrifice money, comfort, or convenience solely for the environment – to use an environmentally friendly product, it has to meet other… more
On my mind…
| March 11, 2011 | Posted by Kate under cats, crafts, quilting, randomness |
Right now, this hot cocoa recipe looks really good. It might be because it’s darned chilly in here, and because I’m tired and in need of something hot and sweet. But it looks good. Too bad I have no chocolate or cocoa powder. Bah. Yesterday, I took my cat Felony (yes. felony.) to the vet… more
New Bathroom
| March 10, 2011 | Posted by Kate under dog, home |
So, the first in a series of photos showing off the new house as it becomes more put-together and less filled with boxes and crap all over the floors. First up, the upstairs bathroom. I don’t have a ‘master’ bath, but this is right next to the ‘master’ bedroom, so I’ve claimed it as my… more
Monday Menu Plan!
| March 7, 2011 | Posted by Kate under cleaning, hearthcraft, Menu Plan Monday |
So here’s the menu plan for the week. I’m starting this again to try and regain some semblance of control of my grocery bill. We’ll see how it works. Monday Lunch: Some eggrolls from walmart. Just ate them. Bleh. Monday Dinner: Leftover Penne a la Betsy, from The Pioneer Woman Cooks, one of my favoritest… more
21.5 Hours – Unplugged
| March 6, 2011 | Posted by Kate under daily life, hearthcraft |
So, I picked up the idea to unplug myself from the Sabbath Manifesto, a site dedicated to a weekly day of rest. The idea was to – in old Jewish sabbath style – unplug myself from television, the phone, the internet, commerce, etc. The site has several guidelines to follow, but they are only that… more
100 Things
| March 5, 2011 | Posted by Kate under 100 Things, hearthcraft |
As I mentioned, I’ve been filling out the Goddess Guide Workbook 2011, and one of the projects in there is to create a list of 100 Things to Do in 2011. I’ve done a 101 Things in 1001 Days list, but this is more short term, and in my mind, is meant to be more… more
Changes
| March 4, 2011 | Posted by Kate under cats, daily life, dog, fish, fostering, hearthcraft, tarot |
2011 is looking up to be a year of change. Already, I’ve moved from my tiny 2 bedroom condo into a huge and spacious 4 bedroom home in another part of the city. I have almost a third of an acre, and although I can’t have chickens or goats (pity) I can plant trees… more
