Happy Easter!

Wishing you and yours a very Happy Easter. In our house we celebrate with coloring eggs (so fun, we like to get very creative), an egg hunt, dinners with family, making our traditional bunny cake (36 years and going strong) and of course Easter baskets. Even the pup gets in on the fun.

Do you celebrate Easter? What are some of your favorite traditions?

Food Friday: Bento

Awhile back I got an adorable book called Yum-Yum Bento Box: Fresh Recipes for Adorable Lunches. It has been sitting on my shelf for a few years, waiting for the day when I had some supplies to create cute food. Today I attempted to make a Hello Kitty boiled egg. Note to self, use larger eggs next time! Sadly my egg only had a cute Hello Kitty face, and was still egg shaped because it was too small. Still, it was really fun and it makes me want to buy a lot more egg molds for future egg making.

One of my favorite YouTube shows, Cooking With Dog, has a very good video about making bento: What about you? Have you tried making cute foods for bento boxes?

Woof Wednesday: Look into my eyes!

She knows she is cute, and she knows just the look to get exactly what she wants. Oh, and she is not afraid to use it either.

Scrabble Inspired Pillows

Oh how I love these Scrabble inspired pillows! Don't you?



If I had an extra $98 laying around I would buy them right away for our family room. After all, our family room is all about play! I imagine they wouldn't be hard to make yourself, but I really love supporting indie artists when I can, don't you?

They come with the inserts and can be found on Etsy along with other fun options in the same shop called Shop Dirtsa.
