TENSION ROD ORGANIZER

Good Morning Everyone!

Would you like to know a super quick and easy way to create a spot for organization?

Here is a little tip using a tension rod and curtain rings.

I was rooting through my front closet a few weeks before Christmas looking for something. I don't even remember what it was now, because I got distracted when I stumbled across an old tension rod we were using in the bathroom before we installed the permanent one. This happens all the time. It's a wonder anything gets accomplished around here.

FIVE MINUTE FESTIVE TISSUE BOX COVER

Hi Everybody, 

Hope all of you had a good Christmas, full of fun, family, and too much food! 

While I was wrapping the last of the gifts on Christmas Eve (Mrs. Last-Minute!), I just happened to glance over at my boring tissue box on the kitchen counter.

I'm currently going through my very old recipes and getting them onto my computer so that I can start a binder. They were originally done up on my typewriter. Oh yes.That contraption with the annoying little bell that dings when you get to the end of each row!

Hi everybody! 

Got a weather report for you! Winter has hit Alberta with a vengeance. We made it to the 
top of the list for the Coldest Place in the World this Thursday, registering in at minus 40 degrees! Brrrrr! Here's a photo of our deck three days ago. 

Why yes, I certainly did shovel all that lovely snow!

Crazy! I'm soooo glad I put the outdoor lights up at the end of October!
But enough of that! Now on to the post!

When I first graduated college I was briefly unemployed. I would get up at 6:00 in the morning to watch my favorite news show, Canada AM, before heading out to hunt down a job. There was a weekly segment devoted to cooking.
