Fun Menu Ideas

I love sharing fun sites of friends. My old visiting teacher, Lydia, has a cute cooking blog. It is called Put a Lyd on It. (Get it - lydia/lyd on it?).

Why I love her site:

When I'm in a funk and I don't know what to cook, I normally go through her site and look through her opinions on the recipes she's done. I like that sometimes she tries things and says she'd do something different. I also love that when she gives the directions to recipes she adds the differences she did, or substitutes, or things like that. I am not a good cook, so I like to know these little short cuts. Anything that can make life easier is wonderful. Plus, she answers your questions when you leave comments.

If you're looking for another fun cooking inspirational site, check her's out. :)

Project: I Can Survive

So my girl Emily has started up this super cute blog called Project: I Can Survive. She shares a lot of cute ideas and crafty things she has done. I love seeing friend's talents. I am totally blown away by the cute things she comes up with.

For example, she took this rocker...

And turned it into this! SOO adorable. Love it.

I also love all her cute diaper wipe/diaper cases she's done. Seriously. Do they come any cuter? I have seen tutorials online and have failed at every attempt (plus I don't know where to find cute fabric anyways... drag). I've seen them on sale online too, but I really can't justify spending $15 on a diaper case when I can just deal with having the normal one for free. She said she only spent $3 on it. So if you've got skillz that would be nice, right? :) I bet those would be really fun for baby showers, etc.

So check out Emily's new blog. Seriously. She has a lot of cute things on there. :)
