Arts and Craft Sunday: Homemade Glue!

Homemade Glue by Mommy's Got It All

We don't usually keep glue in our home, just the occasional glue stick or wood glue for quick fixes. Tonight as I was looking for Kid friendly craft projects I came across this neat fix for glue on the blog Mommy's Got It all.

I was so impressed I decided to post it here instead of the craft project I was looking for and plan on trying to make my own ASAP!

How much easier can it get?! The best part is that you have all the ingredients you need right in your own kitchen, no need to venture into town when you realize you're out!

In The Spirit Of Menu Plan Monday

 


I don't participate in Menu Plan Monday but I do however indulge in internet Food Porn...however I must confess that my version of Food Porn is more a testament to "This Is Why You're Fat" than to Menu Plan Monday.

Today's sinfully delicious and fattening dish is..Bacon Turtle Burgers!

Substitute the turkey dogs for beef and you've got one heck of a dish!

Arts and Crafts Sunday: Frosty Ghosts


As a kid I wasn't a particularly great crafter but instead preferred to immerse myself in the pages of my books. While other kids looked forward to macaroni necklaces in ART class, I would gaze longingly out the window at the Library of my Elementary School. As I grew older I alternated between my books and creative writing; I dreaded fruit bowls, and Self Portraits.

Fortunately for me, My Mama has always been a crafter so the dream of being able to one day create was never forgotten. Of course its helpful that I now have a daughter of my own and find myself scouring the internet for fun, easy crafts that a 16 month old can help with!

When I came across Rosetta's Frosty Leaf Ghosts, I was sold. Easy, a-d-o-r-a-b-l-e, KID FRIENDLY and just in time for the upcoming holidays!

Enter To WIN Warner Bros. #DarkShadowsonDVDandBlue-Ray ENDS 10/16

When it comes to Johnny Depp, I'm a huge fan. From his animated children's films to his more mature themed films, I'm front row and center with a bowl of popcorn; so when I saw the Dark Shadows trailer previewed on TV for the first time I knew I HAD to see it.

Unfortunately for me, being a stay at home mom of a 16 month old, I'm usually too broke or too busy juggling the antics of my little heathen to be able to hit the theater. This leaves only the option of waiting for Dark Shadows to be released at the nearest (and only) RedBox in our little podunk town, which is a gamble in and of itself.

Luckily for my readers though, I have been given the chance to giveaway a copy of a Dark Shadows DVD and Blue-Ray combo pack!

Warner Bros. Pictures is proud to announce the release of Dark Shadows on DVD and Blu-Ray October 2nd 2012!
From the incredible mind of Tim Burton comes the hit film Dark Shadows, based on the classic television series! Barnabas Collins (Johnny Depp) has been trapped for two centuries by an evil witch (Eva Green) who just happens to be an ex lover. Barnabas now has to struggle with the ever changing 1970s and save his families business! With an all star cast that includes Michelle Pfeiffer, Helena Bonham Carter, Chloe Grace Moretz, Jonny Lee Miller and more, Dark Shadows will be sure to whet your appetite for fun.
Are You Creepy Enough Quiz! Do your friends refer to you as a Child of the Night or do you shiver at the thought of a creepy crawly? Take the Are You Creepy Enough quiz to find out.

Barnabas’ Terror Trivia! Are you a Barnabas buff? Take the 3 truths and a lie trivia all about Barnabas Collins and you can unlock clips and downloads from Dark Shadows.

Dark Shadows Horror-Scope! Whether you are a Virgo Vampire or a Transylvanian Taurus, you can get your custom hauntified Horror-Scope.
