Tour of Tables Blessed with Talent

 Tour of Tables is a fundraiser for Canton's Community Education project.  The event was held this past Saturday.  I am going to show off a few things today and more through the week.   

There is a clue hidden here in these photos as to my "big news".  I have also hidden a clue in my blog layout and in a recent video.  Do you know what my good news is?  You know I love to play games so don't post your answer here send me an email paschal.sara@gmail.com and I will enter you into a drawing for some yummy crafty treats.  (Family and Friends that are in the know are not eligible.  Count yourselves lucky that I have told you the good news first so you can bask in my ROCKSTAR GLOW.)  LOL!!

Okay, I want to play Nickelbacks version you can click to it with this link HERE.

However, I will keep a Disney rating here on the blogo with Hannah Montana...

I remember watching this so if you are in want of good laugh play this little number...

 All remaining paper treats that I personally don't use throughout the year are donated

 to the Church Youth, our local Nursing Home and other charities.

Happy Stamp Day.  May God bless our Country and the World.

Merry Christmas R

I have my Niece's CHRISTmas gift all finished and wrapped up. Here is what the first photo shows you...
Tall can is recycled drink mix container and holds 4 colors of playdough and cutters.
Jug is recycled Container and holds Shower Gel.
Bottle was purchased at Michales and has hand and body lotion.
Small bottle is recycled hand sanitizer bottle that holds body glitter gel.
Two bars of handmade soap.
Tow pots of lip gloss Chocolate and peppermint.
Christmas Tree Ornament.

I have to tell you our reasons behind making gifts this year. We wanted to teach our Children the Christmas is not about getting it is in the spirit of Giving. And the main reason we celebrate Christmas is the Birth of Jesus. With the economy the way it is and my craft room piled high with products (that one is for you Dad, my Dad was shocked at all I had when he came to visit before heading south) it was decided a group effort of time and love was going to create the gifts this year. It has been a great ride working with all three of our kids making projects and teaching them the basics. My DH just scratches his head and wonders when he will have the kitchen back to normal.
Now I need to finish up gifts for the boys. I have the playdough made, do you have anymore suggestions for me. (They range in age from 3 to 8.)

Kool Aid Childs Play

Edited to remove slide show Nov 17...

Who ever thought there were so many uses for Kool Aid? We actually don't drink it much around here because of the sugar content and the artificial colorings but over the past year I have found many other uses for it. I do like to hand out the single servings after I realized how much my Niece and Nephews love the stuff.

Below is a slide show of your little DD as she turned 3 yesterday. My good friend Jen sent some home made playdough to her for a bday treat. She had it packaged so nice and tucked into the container was a leaf cookie cutter, so very creative and this is the bday item she refuses to let rest along with the Dora noise maker from Grandpa thanks Dad and Jan :)

I am so torn about posting photos here on my blog I so love to share them. So I have changed my mind once again and I will be posting a few for you.



Jen's Playdough

1 Cup Flour
1 Cup Water
1 unsweetened pacakage of Kool Aid
1 T heaping Cream of Tartar
1/4 Cup salt
1 T Vegetable Oil
Heat over Med in a non stick skillet 'til not watery and forms a ball
Cool (cools faster if you spread it out)
The warm dough is great therapy for your hands :) so why not play along
Store in air tight container

I will share more Cool Kool Aid projects in the next few weeks...

Happy Stamp Day!
