Summer Projects

Image found here

Right now, I am in full on Summer mode. I am ready for the warm weather, not subbing for a few months, and soaking up all Summer has to offer! I think that this time is a great opportunity to work on projects that you put off throughout the year. I know I have a few that I want to do, and I want to share them with you!

Project #1: Organizing my Drawers


  • I have some drawers where things are just thrown in there. In one drawer I have SEVERAL lipsticks, my camera, extra jewelry that doesn't fit in my jewelry box in there. I want to get my lipsticks into a small bin, and place my jewelry in a bin so I can easily grab it when I need it. 
  • My sock and undergarment drawer is a mess! It seems like I have a lot of socks with holes in them, and I just need to get rid of them! I have a few new pairs that wouldn't fit in my drawer, so I am going to swap the old ones out for the new ones.
Project #2: Create A Blog Binder

  • In this binder, I want to include a monthly calendar, and a weekly calendar. I also want to include some paper to jot post ideas down. This way I can continue to become more prepared with my blog. I can also plan ahead to different holidays and not be rushing around trying to create my blog posts for the week. Do you have any ideas I can add to my binder??
What are your projects for this Summer? I'd love hear about them! Leave me a comment and let me know!

Cooking for a Crowd: Spaghetti Sauce

My family likes to save money when we have parties. One way to do so is to cook everything ourselves, instead of hiring a caterer. Today, I wanted to give you a recipe for spaghetti sauce that will feed a crowd. This recipe is best made in an 18 quart roast pan. We bought most of our sauces and tomato paste at Costco. Ingredients: 2 onions 3 cans diced tomatoes 2 #10 cans of tomato sauce 1 #10 can on spaghetti sauce 1 heaping tsp of garlic minced 2 (28 oz) cans of crushed tomatoes 4 (6 oz) cans of tomato paste 1 tsp sugar Onion and garlic salt, italian seasoning, parsley, oregano to taste 1 pound of each: ground meat, hot and sweet sausage Look at the deliciousness!  In a skillet brown your meat and sausage in a little oil. Once browned place off to the side. Combine your onions, garlic, diced tomatoes, and crushed tomatoes. *Sweat your onions down first, then add the garlic. Then your tomatoes.* Open your tomato sauces and spaghetti sauces (w...

High Five for Friday

Friday is here again! It is always a wonderful way to bring in the weekend. Here is what I loved this week. 1. I made another visit to Freedom Farms. I bought some apples, and bread. 2. I absolutely loved my Birchbox and Ipsy bags this month! The Ipsy review is coming tomorrow! 3. I am subbing today and I got to wear my jeans to school. I love days like that. 4. I just want it to be Christmas, because I have some amazing posts for you already planned out! 5. I discovered that McDonald's iced coffee with caramel is AMAZING! Thanks, Lauren for the link up! What about you? How was your week? Leave me a comment , I'd love to hear from you!

Christmas/New Year's Recap

First, I just want to say that I have absolutely no pictures from Christmas. I'm terrible, I know. In my defense, I was sick all through Christmas and just wasn't feeling "it." I do however, have pictures of some of the gifts I received and New Year's. Christmas Eve dinner was hosted by my parents and I. We had lasagna, wedding soup, salad, bread, and Italian butter. I made a homemade alfredo sauce to go along with the lasagna. I also made the Italian butter, and attempted to make my homemade French bread. This year, the bread did not turn out. For dessert, I made white chocolate raspberry shooters. They were SO good! I will do a recipe on those when I make them again! After everything was cleaned up, we honestly just relaxed. I would have liked to have gone to Christmas Eve service at our church, but I was coughing, clearing my throat every 5 minutes, and blowing my nose every 10. I was a hot mess. My grandparents came back out to our house after church and w...
