my new favorite snack

This is probably one of my favorite food pins.  That's saying a lot because I have pinned a lot of recipes that are really good but not so healthy.  This one is super simple and healthy too!

So you take this...

Slice up the apples thinly then juice the orange and lemon over top.  Let it soak for awhile.  That's it. 

I have been using half of a lemon because the oranges I bought aren't very sweet.

Enjoy!

some stuff

So I still spend way too much time on Pinterest.  It's hard to stay away {for me anyway} when there are so many good ideas floating around on there.  It had been quite awhile since I put any of those ideas into action so last week I decided to get some things done.

I came across this idea quite a few months ago....

I really liked the idea so I saved all our Christmas cards last year.  I finally got our book made last Friday.

Another idea I came across was journaling without journaling.

I loved that idea.  There are so many things that I throw away, even though I hate to, just because I don't know what to do with them and I don't want the clutter.  So my spin on this was to buy 6x9 inch manilla envelopes and label each with a month.

Now I have a place to store those random pieces and am creating a journal of sorts in the process.  I was trying to figure out a way to make the writing cute {stickers, printing out labels, etc.} but then I decided my own handwriting was the best way to go.  It just seems more personalized, or something.  Now I'm on the look out for something cute to store them in.

Now onto that cake I showerd you earlier this week.  Dave wanted a dessert last weekend, so I went to my trusty Sweet treats board to find something new to make.  I read some ideas to him and he picked the Snickers cake.

That is some good cake and it's really easy to make.  If you're interested in the recipe, you can get it by clicking on the link under the picture.

And on the flip side of that cake.  Here is another idea I'm using that I found on Pinterest.

I just used what I had on hand so my jars are two recycled pizza sauce jars.

I've seen this idea around on a few blogs.  Some people use 1 rock to represent on tenth of a pound or one half of a pound.  The easiest way for me is one rock equals one pound.  So far, I've got 14 in the lost jar and 20 more to go in the to go jar to meet my first goal.

So, that's what I've been up to.  My next Pinterest projects on my list are this and this. 

Hope ya all have a great weekend! :o)

Oh, and sorry for the extra crappy phone pics.

Nothing much going on around here. 
We have a half day of school tomorrow, then we are off until January 3.  :o)
I'm thisclose to being done with Christmas shopping.  I just have a few stocking stuffers left to pick up.
Considering I've been gone from the blog for almost a month, I doubt I'll be back on this year. 
So....hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and a safe and happy New Year celebration!

Because...

Because I'm too lazy to get some of my projects done..
Because I'm too lazy to load the pictures onto my computer of the projects I have completed...
Because I'm going into labor having horrible cramps this week (TMI? sorry) and don't feel like doing anything...
Because I want to post something but don't have anything to write about/show you due to the above reasons...

I'm going to share a few of my pins from my Random stuff that makes laugh and/or smile board.

Pinterest love
