busy, busy & a fun new feature

My goodness, time certainly does fly when you're having fun. This past vacation was one of the best ones yet...and we didn't even go anywhere!
But now it is back to work, back to school, back to tutoring time. And did I mention on top of that I am taking two classes at BPS?? Am I crazy??? Nah...just (overly?) ambitious. Besides, I figure that whatever I cannot get to in terms of scrapbooking I can catch up with next month at Croptopia (can't wait, ladies!!)!
In the meantime, don't be surprised to see posts coming in at 1:00 am ;-)

And now for some news...
After much thinking I have decided to put "what i'm loving wednesdays" on hold for a bit.
However, I have come up with a fun new feature I hope you will enjoy just as much.
Beginning next week, Mondays will be....

"Melissa & Martha Mondays"!
(yes, it is in fact inspired by Julie & Julia...except with recipes AND crafts!) 
Woohoo!

I heart Martha Stewart. Like seriously. Naysayers have your wrath, but I think she and her team are a collection of creative genii (it's proper english, I looked it up) and I, for one, cannot get enough of the amazing creations and concoctions that they produce time after time.
Have you ever picked up her Everyday Food magazine in the checkout aisle at the grocery store?


It is hands down my favorite cooking magazine out there. It is filled with a copious amount of helpful tips and the pictures alone are enough to get my mouth salivating. Fresh herbs, gorgeous cooking utensils, local produce... It's like foodie heaven.

But I digress,
sort of.

Beginning next Monday I will be posting about one of Martha's recipes or crafts that I have given a try.
I'll let you know how it went, my thoughts, if I would recommend it, etc...

Should be a lot of fun, I hope you'll check it out!

looking forward to seeing what you do! I often look at that mag at Borders, but can't really justify $A20!

Can't wait to see what you do! Martha and I sometimes have a love/hate relationship, so I'm hoping to get more love from what you do:) Can't wait for Croptopia! How is your JYC coming??

I love Martha's Everyday food magazine! I made a bunch of stuff from it for xmas.... also that book you showed, "great food fast" is one of my all time favorites, I've had it for years and made a bunch of recipes from it.
