Total Bedroom Makeover for under $350: From Boyish Blue to Totally Pink Princess

This tackle did not happen all at once. This tackle, which I finally think is done, has happened over the period of about six months or so. But, now that it is finally finished, I figured it was time to share. Poor, poor Molly. For a few years, she has had the bedroom that was [...]

Churning Out Ice Cream (and Memories) with an Electric Ice Cream Maker (WFMW #50)

Years ago, I attended a girls night out at a friends house. Our hostess made us homemade ice cream right while we were at the party. She raved about her ice cream maker which she could just plug in, start up, pour in ingredients, and then leave to make the ice cream for her. I [...]

Deleting Email Addresses
