e.a.t. and a gallery wall

I've always wanted a little something over this doorway in our kitchen.






And, now I have it!

I purchased some inexpensive 5x5 frames, ran some burlap 
through the printer and voila!






Another quickie project this week was a gallery wall in our powder room.






 We're headed south for Spring Break and I'm hoping to find some 
other 'trinket' to replace the starfish inside the large frame.





Have you been working on any projects this week, small or large?

Animal Print Mirror

I've had several posts  lately about my daughter's bedroom update.  

The last tweak to the room was adding duck tape to her mirror.  It needed a little something.

Easiest project ever!










What 12 yo girl doesn't like a little zebra in her bedroom?
(I do look forward to the day when her tastes are a little more subdued :)

Energy Bites

A friend shared this recipe with me over the weekend.  We were chaperoning our girls at their last Girl Scout Cookie Booth Sale and she thought of these because they're similar to a Samoa GS cookie in taste, but a little healthier.


Energy Bites

1 cup oatmeal
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/3 cup honey
1 cup coconut flakes
1/2 cup ground flaxseed
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
1 tsp vanilla






Mix everything above in a medium bowl until thoroughly incorporated. 

 Let chill in the refrigerator for half an hour. 






Once chilled, roll into balls and enjoy!

  Store in an airtight container and keep refrigerated for up to 1 week.
 









That picture makes me want a glass of milk!

Hope you'll try them ~
