Contributor Huckleberry Love: Crochet Baby Duck Easter Hat


Let's welcome the second contributor post from the lovely ladies at Huckleberry Love, but the first post from Jamie. Remember, these four gals run a blog together and Jamie is their resident crochet expert.  Heaven knows I've never been able to crochet a thing in my life, so let's thank Jamie for bringing a new skill to this blog and I hope I can pick up a little something in the meantime, because I would love to make this little crochet duck hat!

DIY All-Natural, All-Purpose Cleaner



Green! Green! Green! 
That's what this world is boiling down too! And thank goodness for that, tomorrow is St. Patrick's day and I don't want to get pinched. So here's the deal, I find St. Patrick's day incredibly amusing. As many of you know, I'm from New England and we LOVE St. Patrick's day! 
We have a huge parade, we die the bay green, we wear funny green hats, we chase leprechauns, we find pots of gold at the end of rainbows. We pretty much roll out the green rug and give green hugs.

DIY CHRIST Easter Photo Plaques


Easter is almost here! I know we have Saint Patrick's day first, but isn't it exciting that the day of resurrection is right around the corner. I mean just think of that! Death was conquered on that day.

Lathe-Turned Wooden Drawer Pulls



Life keeps on taking many turns! I went from being a social worker, to getting an MBA. Often, my life reminds me of that soap opera, "As the World Turns" and though my life is not nearly as dramatic as the show, I find that saying to be true, which is why, I'm naming this post, "As the Lathe Turns."

Aten-hut! All blogger-readers stand at attention! Orient your eyes at the military chalkboard below. You will read the following post and execute instructions with military precision. Dismissed. I've always wanted to wear a uniform and shout instructions. Just kidding.
