I'm a list maker. Otherwise known as a lister. I make random lists. Some on paper. Some in journals and some, inside of my head. My bucket list, for instance is inside my head. Why? That way I can add to it or even subtract from it and not feel a bit of shame. I have repeated my bucket list enough to those close to me so they already know it by heart, that is...unless I add something to the list. The other day, I added petting a baby panda bear. Yes, I know it's not safe. But, it's a bucket list that is in my head so I can keep it there until I change my mind (if I do). Years ago, when my daughter J liked to go grocery shopping with me, she liked to collect grocery lists that she found. When I found a few, I would save them for her. I asked her why she said that she thought it was intriguing to see other people's lists and their handwriting. She could use her imagination to guess what the occasion was, how old they were and maybe what recipes or menus they were creatin...

I love keepsakes and sentimental things too.
Let's see, today, hmmmm...I tried a new dish at an Italian restaurant. And I'm out of town, but still blogging on my stepfather's new laptop-a slight adjustment from using my desktop at home.
When I get home, I may come back for another visit to play around with your video software. :)
You have such unique ideas and I love those dolls your sister made. So adorable and what a wonderful keepsake.
I haven't been very creative lately but I have done handmade gifts in the past before I had my daughter. I can remember giving a girlfriend a mason jar full of all the ingredients and recipe for cookies (I think), I remember purchasing a torn up 1950's linen tablecloth (for 10 cents) with the most gorgeous pattern on it, I cut it up and sewed it into dish towels. My mom still uses them.
Gee, maybe I should do a video too!
Loved watching you! Hope you do more for us!
This was a fun post that let us put not only a picture but a voice with your blog.
Here's wishing your adorable self a great day with many blessings!!!
I'll be back....for a longer visit.
I was creative Saturday--we painted and completely re-decorated my son's room. It turned out great and he's really happy. Amazing what a coat of paint does for a room.
btw... I love that family frame behind you!
I tried to be creative on Saturday. I was looking for yarn to knit a sweater for my sister for Christmas. I could not find what I needed, which was frustrating, but I will look some more this week.
I'm all about creating gifts and finding something special for someone that has a sentimental value. Too much is spent on How Much something costs vs. what does the gift mean. Gifts are meant to have a meaning, especially at Christmas. Love the hand
prints of your girls...I wish I had thought to do that when my boys were little.
I made beef stroganoff on Saturday using a new recipe. It was nice but it was different...I'm not sure I'd make it that way again, but it was my husband's request for his birthday dinner.
