Homemade French Fries

As those that know me, I have quite the obsession with cooking simply and deliciously!  One of my ALL time favorite blogs to frequently check for recipes and The Pioneer Woman and I also religiously watch (well, actually DVR) her show every Saturday at 10am on the Food Network!  Over the weekend I took a trip to my local Bed Bath & Beyond and purchased a "Fry Cutter" for around $15.  I tell you what... this was probably the best $15 I have spent in a long time because my fries I made tonight were superbly scrumptious.

For the full recipe please visit The Pioneer Woman here for this great dish!

Valentine's Day Love Bug!

So with Valentine's Day less than a week away I am sure you are all getting ready!  This year was my daughter Isabelle's very first Valentine's party at school and I was so excited!  I found this post on Everyday Cricut and decided to mirror this project and make these super cute valentine's!  On the post at Everyday Cricut they used different cartridges, but since I was really not interested in making a special trip for these I decided to find things similar to what they did!  The cartridges I used on these valentine's were the Birthday Bash and the Simply Charmed cartridges.  Birthday Bash carried the scalloped square and the Simply Charmed cartridge carried the "Love Bug"!  I did all the doodling by hand and added the "Love Bug" message with my printer on the computer!
