Grab-n-Go

In preparation for a busy and potentially stressful week I've made a bucket o' lunch goodies. Pre-bagged grapes, breads, sandwiches, and other various lunch items. Then in my stupor each morning I can pick a few different items and go. If you've seen my lunches, you konw they don't always go together as a nice ensemble. These might not either, but they will be fast!

It worked!  Lunch was just about the easiest part of my week!  Yea for planning a head!

Dr. Seuss Thing 1 Cupcakes

BIG frosting tip and disposable tube

Pre-baked cupcakes from Baker-noon frozen for later in the week

 

White frosting for the base and blue hair for the topping.  I did a big glob in the middle and then tapered it into somekind of "hair-do" and added blue sprinkles.

I forgot to get a picture after I cut out circles and wrote "Thing 1, Thing 2" and glued them on the cupcake liner.

Crafter-fun

So this picture has nothing to do with my craft because I don't want to show people who might be the reciepent of my craftyness. But isn't this an adorable fabric swatch! Yea craftyness

So I don't usually check this too often but I was wasting time online and checked my school blog stats. 

They tripled last month! 

 I'm still trying to figure out how they would be so high, and not some kind of fluke.  Either way, it is exciting to think that perhaps people are interested in what is going on in our classroom.  Are you?  Go to More Than ABC's!

On my to do list:

See what comes next if people kept coming at this rate.

And why?!

Stuff I've Underlined This Week:

See what happens when we focus more on our battles than on God?  Our enemy appears bigger, we appear weaker, and God appears smaller.  wow!

God sometimes stays the encouragement of others purposely so we will learn to find it in Him.  (when it seems like we're alone...who should we be looking for?)
