“How fun!” I find myself exclaiming this many times throughout the week. Here are just a few things that touched me or made me smile:
“mmm… caramel!”
I am ready for winter to be over. There, I said it. lol I know I said I wouldn’t be negative here, but I think a lot of us are feeling a little winter weary. Ohio had another big snowfall on Tuesday, and right now there is still snow on the ground. And yet, hope springs eternal. Emphasis on SPRINGs! 🙂
I’ve been seriously considering trying my hand at some indoor gardening because I don’t know when I’m going to be able to get my hands back into the dirt outside. lol Here are three great posts for things you can grow on your counter:
Reveal Natural Health started an herb garden.
The Inspired Room created a five-minute succulent garden in the kitchen.
At Home with Jemma guest posted at Nancherrow and designed a beautiful terrarium. Gorgeous!
Do you have any indoor growing areas? Any tips to share?

My friend, LeeAnn, put together this wonderful post to teach children about Easter. Whether you have kids at home or grandchildren, there are many great ideas! It is a wonderful resource!

Ed designed another free printable to share. I love to plan our menus and write out the grocery list for the week. We hope you enjoy these. Click the links below, save the pdf files to your computer and print them out as many times as you wish. These will print out at 100% on a regular piece of 8 1/2 x 11 paper. The left side is for meal planning and the right side is a handy grocery list. Maybe you can hang this on the fridge and ask your family to update the “Grocery” side as needed during the week. 🙂 Please feel free to share these.
