Best Teas and Teatime Accessories – Friday Finds

By

This post contains Amazon affiliate links. I admit it - I love tea. (It might actually be true that I drink more tea than plain water. Which I admit, is bad.) I love iced tea (Snapple Lemon Tea being my favorite), chai tea, bubble tea, some green teas, and Twinings English Breakfast Tea. So, not surprisingly, tea accoutrements and accessories are some of my favorite things. One of my newest additions to my tea items is a cute set of engraved tea spoons given to me by my friend, Carrie of Curly Crafty Mom, for my birthday. (Thanks, Carrie!) Using these cute spoons when I'm drinking cold or Continue reading...

Fabric Craft Caddy Review

By

This post contains Amazon affiliate links at no cost to you. Thanks to Mollie Ollie for providing me with a Mimmo Caddy for review. If you are a crafter, you know that crafting as a hobby means owning craft supplies. Often, LOTS of craft supplies. Organizing all those supplies can be quite difficult! (One look at my craft room would show you that.) So, I'm quite happy today to be reviewing the Mimmo Caddy by Mollie Ollie. This adorable, sturdy and useful fabric craft caddy helps me organize my supplies - and take them along with me when I'm on the go. For a limited time (through Continue reading...

Slow Cooker Sausage & Mushroom Baked Ziti

This is an easy baked pasta dish that cooks up easily in the slow cooker, and is filled with pasta, sausage and mushrooms. This recipe is adapted from the slow cooker baked ziti recipe by The Recipe Rebel. Happy Monday, everyone! We have been getting so much snow lately in New Jersey. The weather has been cold, too, so my family and I have been wanting some warm comfort food! So recently I cooked up a big slow cooker full of tasty baked ziti with a hearty tomato sauce, mushrooms and sausage. I found this delicious recipe at The Recipe Rebel and adapted it a little by adding more Continue reading...

PhotoWall Canvas Print Review (Friday Finds) Plus 25% Off Code

By

Thanks to Photowall for providing the print reviewed in this post. Happy Friday! It's been a cold and snowy week here in New Jersey, leaving me to spend most of my time indoors. That's one reason I was especially happy to receive my new beautiful canvas print from Swedish wallpaper and print company, PhotoWall. I chose to review a 31.5 x 19.69 inch "Light Forest" canvas print by Canadian artist, Lisa Audit. My print is a beautiful depiction of a birch forest. In the print, stark but beautiful white birch trees stand tall against a winter sky. I am reviewing the print as part of my Continue reading...

Spring Bird Grapevine Wreath with Lace and Ivy

By

This post contains Amazon affiliate links at no cost to you. I can't believe that spring is only a little more than a month away! I love springtime. I enjoy hearing the birds return and seeing trees start to green and early perennials pop up in gardens and on lawns. (I planted some crocus in my front lawn last fall, so I excited to see those bloom.) I decided to make a quick and easy spring bird grapevine wreath to celebrate spring's upcoming arrival! I am sharing this post as part of the Pinterest Challenge Blog Hop. Today my blogging friends and I all will be sharing our own homemade Continue reading...

Pink KitKat Sweetheart Cake

By

This post contains Amazon affiliate links at no cost to you. This past weekend I wanted to bake a Valentine's Day cake for my family. I thought it would be fun to make a pink KitKat cake - I've seen KitKat cakes on Pinterest and thought they looked great! It turns out one of my twin daughters wanted to do some baking, so she made the cake instead! She did an awesome job! Although I planned this cake for Valentine's Day, I think it'd be awesome for an anniversary or birthday, too! Plus, it's simple to make - this cake is made with cake mix and store bought icing. (Although my daughter did Continue reading...

Sweet Valentine’s Day Rose and Hydrangea Bouquet (Friday Finds)

By

Thanks to Nearly Natural for providing me with the bouquet described in this review. Welcome to Friday Finds! I love fresh flowers. If I could, I would have a vase full of them daily in my home. Always having fresh flowers would make me happy, but not perhaps my wallet. Luckily for me, I recently received a lovely bouquet of faux rose and hydrangea from Nearly Natural, just in time for Valentine's Day. They look so good that I had to inform my daughters that they aren't real! I am sharing my new artificial flower arrangement as part of my regular Friday Finds column. In this column I Continue reading...
