Walking Tacos


I think for these to technically be "walking tacos" they are supposed to be served in a mini bag of Fritos but those are way more expensive than a full size bag so I usually just serve it in a bowl. So I guess this would be more of a taco salad. What ever you call it, it is yummy and a great meal for a busy summer night. Most of you probably already know how to make these, especially if you ever went to summer camp, but sometimes I need a reminder of the old classics that I love but forget about if I haven't made them in awhile.

Oh, my, gosh. Becky, look at her bag!
It is so big. She looks like,
one of those nerd guys' girlfriends.
I like BIG BOOKS and I cannot lie...

Mini Cereal Box Notebooks


Two years after adding some mini cereal boxes to my craft stash, I have finally used all of them! I started out with a Mini Cereal Box Desk Organizer which my son still uses every day. I love the fun pop of color that it adds to our living room. Now I am going to show you how to turn the rest into fun little notebooks.

Mustache Outlet Stickers


I never really understood the trend of putting mustaches on everything even if it doesn't make sense at all. I do, however, like putting them on faces like a finger tattoo or coffee mugs with a mustache painted underneath and now - electrical outlet faces!

Taco Pizza


I have a thing for the taco pizza from Casey's but I am too cheap to buy it very often. So I learned to make it myself! It tastes just as good and it is pretty easy to make too. I actually like it even better because when you order a taco pizza they put all of the toppings on at once so the leftovers have soggy chips and slimy lettuce. When I make it myself I can just put toppings on the pieces I am going to eat right then.

Super Mario Savings Bank


As part of our Super Mario master bedroom decor I decided to make a savings bank that looks like one of the mystery blocks. I think it would look better if it were a wooden box with the design painted on but I decided to work with what I already had so I made this one using a cardboard box and colored cardstock.

"Public" Restroom Sign


There are five doors in our hallway that can be a little confusing so I thought it would be fun to add a public restroom sign to help people find the bathroom door.

Cheesy Beef Taco Dip


This cheesy beef taco dip is great for parties and it is hearty enough that it even makes a tasty meal....not that I would know anything about that. No responsible adult would eat nothing but taco dip for dinner. ;)

How To: Cut A Pineapple


Pineapple is in season now and if the only pineapple you have tried came pre-cut, you have no idea what you are missing out on. A freshly cut pineapple is full of flavor and makes a great snack. It took me years to buy one though because I had no idea how to cut it. If the same thing has been holding you back, scroll down for instructions on preparing your fresh pineapple.

LEGO Super Mario Decor


After seeing lots of awesome ideas on Pinterest I really wanted to do a Super Mario bedroom. My son decided that he wanted a Batman room though so I couldn't do it in there. After thinking about it for a little while I decided to go with a Super Mario master bedroom! Just because we are in our thirties doesn't mean we have to act like adults. :p We wear our geekiness proudly.
