I'm totally embarrassed by my kids...Morgan danced in the store and Maddie knocked over a cardboard display of dog treats! I made them stand in the corner of the store till I was done shopping!

I just started selling Avon and I love it! I just wanted to start out slow selling to family and friends but in this short of time I'm getting business from many others as well. I'm real excited about it! Now that both my girls are in school this SAHM needed something to do. So far so good.

Summer is over and fall is here...and I'm freezing!

Anyone know what Swiss Chard is? How about some great recipes that have SC in it? Please!!! We planted some (Don't ask...IDK why!!!) and now it seems like the right time to harvest this stuff...we have LOTS!!!!!! And now I need to know what to do with it.

Thanks for the congrats on becoming a Writer 3! I had no clue, I've been so busy lately that I've not gotten a chance to log-in for a while...So when do we start getting paid to write these reviews! Just kidding! LOL

I was thinking, at the end of a review where it asks if this is something you would recommend to a friend...I would like to see a maybe or something that's not a yes or no. My reason...some things I would recommend to some people but not to others or if I had mixed feeling about the item it would depend on the situation...Just a thought!

I finally got all my Christmas shopping done!!!!

I had gotten this for my daughters 7th birthday, she was always finding bits of paper around the house and trying to write stories on them. She absolutely loved the gift. I had her start writing the story out on regular paper and then I helped her get it going when she was done. I made sure to count all her words and after we got the story down on the papers I told her that all she needed to do was draw a picture of what was happening in the story on that page. She did a great job. I finished filling out the paperwork and sent it in. I received an e-mail letting me know that they had gotten the story and that her book would soon be here. When she got the book she said was very pleased with how her book turned out. There were no miss spelled words and the pictures looked great! It looks absolutely beautiful, she brought it to school and everywhere. I plan on getting another illustory for her this year as well.

On the topic of miss spelled words...there is a box that you can check to have them keep the spelling the way it was written (in the case that your kid wrote it out and spelled something in a very unique manner and you wanted to keep it that way forever!)

I'm trying to write a review on something but every time I click on the review it button it has a different reaction...it goes back to where I was before I started searching for the item! Almost like I'm hitting the back button or something. IDK but I guess I'll wait it out till another day. The item was the Illustory kit by Creations By You. I'm going to post it next on my blog because I feel I did a good job on the review and don't want to re write it later!!

Well, I've gotten the pictures taken...I just need to pick one for a card and order more for the grandparents! Because of the cooler weather I've been doing a ton of baking. I've made 11 loaves of zucchini bread and 2 apple pies, I plan to make at least 2-3 more apple pies before the holidays. My husband and kids attacked the last 2 pies I made so they didn't make it to the freezer like I was wanting them to.

Wow it's been a while, I'm back in ND and it seems like winter is just around the corner. Now all I need to do is get to work on Christmas cards and pictures!!
