boho chic bedroom
My middle daughter has her own style…she calls it boho, vintage, free-spirited or eclectic. Basically, she does not like anything too traditional! She not only dresses with this carefree attitude, but she also chose to decorate her bedroom with a “boho chic” style. One very eclectic idea that we did in her room is hang […]
egg-cellent lunch
If you have young ones, this is a fun lunch idea for the Easter season. I prepared these a few years ago for our play group Easter egg hunt, and the kids loved them! I think the lunch was just as fun as the egg hunt! You will need an empty egg carton and a […]

Since we are being surrounded by all this green today, I thought I would share my visit to Kermit’s Key West Key […]
