Do You Ever??


Display your most precious pottery pieces?
I treasure each and every one of these little gems. I just received a couple of new pieces from my two boys in high school ceramics, and I couldn't have been happier! I think I need to make more room on my shelf :)

(dont you love how even though these were done at many different shoools and times, the glaze colors are all so similar?)

My Favorite Flower too!!


I think the Peony is the favorite flower of everyone I know!
I only have two bushes, for now :)
One is a dark raspberry color and these are the other
This color is so vibrant and gorgeous
I hope to add a light pink and white bush to my garden
love love love

In My Kitchen{Egg White Bites}


So...these little lovelies have become my newest obsession!
Maybe you already make something like this...I however just discovered how easy and delicious these are to make...and they are the perfect "clean" snack!
If you have never made them before, here is my quick recipe~

✿Egg White Bites✿

Chopped Veggies (your choice) - for these I used Asparagus, green onion and spinach
Egg Substitute ( I use Costco's Kirkland brand)

Spray a muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray
Place a tablespoon or so of chopped veggies in the bottom of muffin tin
Pour 1/4 cup egg whites into each cup
Bake @350 for 20 min or until egg is cooked

I love topping mine with a little salsa....delicious!
Enjoy!

Do You Ever??


I haven't done a "Do you ever?" post in awhile (you can read my last one here). I originally was inspired to do these after Tracy Porter started doing them on her blog....I loved the idea!

My friend Pam over at Views from my kitchen sink, did a great "Do you ever?" today, and I was so inspired that I rushed to do the same!

Do you ever....frame an old recipe from someone you love?
This is my Mother-in-law, Jannice's Button Biscuit recipe.
She made these for almost every family dinner we had, my FIL cooked the main course, and Nana made the biscuits. The boys always got to help!
I love that it is in her handwriting, and that it is stained from so much use, even though, she knew the recipe by heart, she still took out the card.
❤I love that it is mine❤

Earth Day!

This picture is from a very cool book that we own Earth From Above


So...today being Earth Day, I thought it would be fun to find out what each of us do to be green.


~Do you use "earth friendly" cleaners?

~Do you recycle?

~Do you take your own bags to the grocery store?

~Do you garden naturally?

~Do you still use paper towels?


There are so many more things...share how you are"going green"!
