So, today I tried my hand at couponing. I'm really not interested in having a huge stockpile, but stocking up on things we'll use (toiletries, cereal, etc), does seem wise. One of my exceptional deals today was Palmolive (28 oz), price-matched at Target to ad for $1.75, and with a manufacturer's coupon for $1.25, I paid 50 cents!

While surfing Pinterest.com, I found a wonderful, cheap paper craft, using toilet paper rolls/paper towel rolls! Here is a link to the site, with directions: http://tibblefork.blogspot.com/2011/06/toilet-paper-roll-wall-art.html

I will attempt this craft, with my dd, and see what we come up with. I will post results soon. :)

Pinterest: Website of Wonder!

Hi! I have just discovered the wonder of Pinterest! It is a wonderful site of things and places on the Internet, that people have "pinned" to their boards (folders of different categories), according to interests! :) Won't you join me? It's free. Just create a login name and password, and you're good to go! :) Happy Friday~ Wendy

One of Those Exceptional Days...

Amidst a day full of runny noses, and dirty diapers (I work part-time at a daycare), there was a beautiful walk to a small community garden, as the sun finally gave warmth and brilliant light, after some nippy, blustery winds! The crying ceased as each little soul explored the world around them, thankful too to be out in this day.

Earthy smells of green onions ready for harvest, and gigantic radishes that dwarf the common radishes, bought in bunches at the supermarket,are bonuses to this day and inspire thoughts of recipes yet to cook! So many spices to learn... Tastebuds to tempt...

All in all, this was one of those exceptional days!

Christmas in our Hearts

A Baby.
A Son.
A Gift of Love.
A Star.
A Promise given and Fulfilled.
A life lived in wonder.
Miracles and Healing.
Life-Changing.
Soothing.
A Cross and the Pain.
And submission.
Death the awful reality;
a consequence of years of disobedience
of humanity.
Not the end!!!
A Christmas story the start; winding its way to the victory: Easter's empty grave!!
A Savior--Bless God!
Jesus: Our Gift of Love
Christmas: His Birthday, and our Salvation Plan
Christmas in our hearts--God's Redemption--
Merry Christmas!!!
