Voting is on the finale at Project Toddler Runway is over, and the winner is…. Lacy from Brickstory Lane. Her winning collection was by far my favorite – MOD podge: I’ve gotten to know Lacy a bit through this competition and I really can’t think of anyone more deserving. Her designs were consistently great throughout the competition. {…Continue Reading}

“Trucky” Boy Apron
I received a special request for a “trucky” apron for my friend’s three-year old who likes to help out in the kitchen. This was a good kick in the pants to get me back at the machine; I’ve been seriously un-motivated as of late. Just tired, tired, tired!! So this is what I came up with. I couln’t {…Continue Reading}
No!
“No!” has been Arden’s word of choice for some time now. She’s finally begun responding with “hm” as an affirmative, which is a nice change. I know it’s a phase most children go through, but that knowledge doesn’t make it any more trying. My Mom tells me that when I was a little girl, I said “no” {…Continue Reading}
2nd Birthday Dance Party Food Ideas?
Arden’s 2nd Birthday party is rapidly approaching, and I’m in need of some dance party themed food ideas! I know, I know – it’s a birthday party for a two year old, so we’re not going to get super theme-y with activities. We’ll just have some fun kid’s music (and the iPad commercial music – {…Continue Reading}

Menswear Toddler Hat
I made this cute reversable bucket hat using some of the wool menswear fabric I had left over from my Lil’ Rascal project for Project Toddler Runway. I used the free pattern and tutorial from Sew Much Ado. Unfortunately, the toddler for whom I made this’ melon is a bit big and it doesn’t really fit {…Continue Reading}
Florida Fish Soup
This is a quick and easy soup that my Mom shared with me. I get frozen packets of fish that my Dad catches in the Gulf of Mexico and the 10,000 islands that are perfect for this kind of dish – this was made with triple tail, a firm white fish which tastes similar to snapper. {…Continue Reading}
Happy Valentine’s Day
Not only is today Valentine’s Day – it is the 6th anniversary of our First Date! Sort of an accidental Valentine’s date; I was dating somebody else but knew it wasn’t headed anywhere and accepted Dave’s invitation for coffee. Coffee led to dinner, and dinner led to drinks. I broke up with the other guy {…Continue Reading}
Project Toddler Runway – Auf Wiedersehen
I made it much futher than I could have possibly hoped. I’m “out” this week from Project Toddler Runway – just one week before the finale. My project this week was the Every Occasion Dress: I’m a little conflicted about being done with this – it was a really great challenge and definitely pushed me {…Continue Reading}
