Great Scrappin' Gallery

I was hopping around on my friend, Jeni's, blog.  She is an amazing artist, photographer, friend and mama.  If you want to discover some cool and wild ideas, check out her blog, Paper Piecing.

But if you are ever in Twin Falls there is a great scrapbook store called Scrappin' Girlfriends.  Love the name!  I really love their website. It's gorgeous!  And if you are looking for some creative scrapbooking ideas, go to their gallery and view the many items they have--neatly organized by category--I love that part too!

Their site header is inspiring all on its own!   The ideas are rolling...now I just need the time to do something!

Take this test Saturday morning!

My mom sent me this yesterday.  It's fun.  And it will make you think hard!   Should you try it Saturday morning?  Hmm....anyway, here's what the email said:

It takes an average of 5 tries to get to 100%.

Follow the directions!


It's harder than it seems, as it should be!


A brain waker-upper for today!

And by the way mom...I got 100% on my first try.  Not to brag or anything. I'm just one of those odd left/right brain thinkers!

Rules of Thumb

I found a fun website.  It's one every mom needs.  You are sure to find just the right "fact" to win any argument with your children!  It's called Rules of Thumb.  A Rule of Thumb, according to the website is "a homemade recipe for making a guess."  In junior high I had a teacher who called them guesstimates.

Here's some information that might come in handy someday:

  • If you can't figure out what you want to eat, you're not hungry.
  • The more children cry, the less they urinate.
  • The circumference of an elephant's front foot is equal to the height of its shoulder from the ground.
  • Never fill a child's glass more than half full.
  • Zigzag to outrun a crocodile.
  • Up to age 6, double the child's age to determine the size of the snowsuit to buy. (Someone has some honking big kids!!)

There are many different categories and if you have a good Rule to add...you can sign in and add your own!  You can even rate the rules.  It's a fun sight!
