Here's a 6x6 page I made for someone. My printer isn't working:( So I had to write out the verse. That wasn't my intention, but not much I could do about it. It needs to get in the mail today. I love the friendship blessing stamp set from CTMH, that's what i used to random stamp and for the flowers I cut out.

my dirty little secret....
My dirty little secret is.... I hate to embellish.Not because I don't like how embellishing looks, just because It takes so much time to embellish. Just lazy I guess. So I had about 30 layouts that needed embellishing. I'm down to about 15 now. So here's what I've done all morning. I don't know why some of them downloaded sideways. It took so long for them to download, I'm just going to keep them that way.

Look what I made
Hi everyone,
Sorry I've been missing the past week or so. I was in charge of this years book fair. That is now over. My last day was yesterday. I loved being in charge of something again. It gives me something to do. Because being a stay at home mom is endless days of sitting around . LOL!
Last night I made this cake for our schools Fun Fair Saturday. It will be raffled off for profit. In case your wondering, hopefully not, it's a gum ball machine. Not my own idea, I got the idea from one of my many cake decorating books. It was super easy to make, no cutting or shaping to do. Well have a great weekend. Hopefully I can get started on crafty things this coming week.

recipe of the week
I've decided to make 1 new recipe a week. I've tried this in the past and didn't stick to it. Hopefully doing this every week on my blog will motivate me. Please join me in making dinner more than a rotation of the same 4 dishes every week.
Recipe: Whole Oven-Barbecued Chicken
Prep: 10 min total: 1hr 55 min
I made this tonight, it was sooooo tender and juicy.
ingredients:
2 small lemons
1/2 cup barbecue sauce ( I used a honey smoked)
1 tsp. Italian seasoning
2 cloves garlic, peeled
1 whole chicken ( 3lb)
1 pkg. (6oz.) Stove Top Stuffing Mix for Chicken ( I used Stove top for chicken with less sodium)
Preheat oven to 350f. Grate 1/2 tsp.lemon peel; set aside. Cut lemons in half; squeeze juice into small bowl. Set aside lemon halves for later. Add BBQ sauce and seasoning to the lemon juice;mix well. Place Chicken in baking pan. Place 2 of the lemon halves and the garlic cloves inside the cavity of chicken. Rub skin of chicken with remaining 2 lemon halves and discard. Tie legs together with twine.
Bake 1 hour 45min or until chicken is cooked through (165f), brushing with the BBQ sauce mixture every 5 minutes during the last 20min. of baking time. Sprinkle with reserved lemon peel during the last 5 min.
Meanwhile, prepare stuffing mix as directed on package. Place in 1 1/2 qt. baking dish sprayed with cooking spray;cover. Place stuffing in oven during last 30min. of chicken baking time. ( I didn't do all of that, I just made the stuffing like it said on the box and then served it. I forgot to get it made and put into the oven in time. I'm sure it's good baked.)
Remove and discard lemon halves and garlic cloves from chicken cavity. Skim fat from drippings in chicken baking pan;serve drippings with chicken and stuffing.
Serves 6.
If your thinking this recipe looks familiar... that's because I got it from the Kraft food magazine. Spring 2008-

you know your a mom when.....
You know your a mom when...... you find a random piece of toy or clothing lying around the house and you know exactly what it goes, or what it belongs to. Yep, that's the star wars sword that goes to Anikian from the 2nd movie, not the third. Or..yep that's the zip off leg that matches the pants whoever wore like 3 years ago, and those pants are in the garage 3rd bin on the left. LOL:) We're spring cleaning, so I've had those moments today.
