Dreaming of the most beautiful porch? Here are some of the prettiest porch decorating ideas from Pinterest, and I’m showing you how I decorate our Blue Cottage porch in a farmhouse style.
We don’t have a basement at the Blue Cottage, and we don’t even have a shed yet. So where does everything end up? On our porch.
It was filled with boxes and bikes and building supplies for a long time even after we moved in, but now it’s my favorite “room” in the house.
Welcome to the Blue Cottage fall home tour full of lovely and affordable farmhouse decor!
I can’t wait to show you what I have come up with this year!
I don’t know about you, but I need to get something done every day or I feel a bit lazy.
I’m pretty happy with what I got done this Saturday!
I also cleaned up my porch, and I finally decluttered the coat closet! [Read more…]
Finding treats that are nut free that my son likes for his school lunch was exhausting! I ended up baking a batch of these yummy nut-free banana muffins.
School is starting again soon, and I’m once again struggling with wanting to send my son to school with something yummy and healthy that doesn’t get bad or mushy by the time he eats it.
I don’t know about you, but I find it difficult to figure out a healthy school lunch because of the restriction that everything has to be peanut or tree nut free.
The cereal bars L likes don’t have nuts in them but are made in a facility that might have had nuts in it, so that one is out — that’s how strict they are in his school.
He likes chocolate peanut or almond butter on bread, but he’s not allowed to eat it at school.
He doesn’t eat bananas, he’s not a fan of string cheese, and we don’t eat cold cuts.
Yogurt or a boiled egg get too warm by the time he eats it — so he ends up with the same boring bagel or bread with butter, some crackers I’m not crazy about but they are nut free, organic apple sauce, a juice box, and water.
I wanted to come up with a healthy, nut-free treat and ended up baking a big batch of these yummy nut-free muffins, enough to eat for a few days and freeze some for later.
Surprise a new teacher or your child with this super-easy DIY back to school gift! I made this in just 5 minutes.
This “apple” jar full of pencils is so easy to make and only costs a few dollars.
I don’t know about you, but we are always looking for a pencil in the house.
When you need one for homework, there isn’t one to be found.
And if you find it, it’s often not sharpened!
Anyone would appreciate this jar full of extra pencils — moms, kids, and teachers. [Read more…]
