Story Behind the New Look



SOoo here is the story behind the 'New Look'

 I was updating my family blog (you can check it out here)
and thought

"I wonder how this would look on Dew This?"

BIG mistake!! My family blog is a two column for one and another - I completely messed up and lost my original formatting for EVERYTHING!!

I almost panicked! Then I said,, Okay lets fix this

1 hour later you have the new updated form.

So I hope you like it- I'm not to sure yet but it'll work for now!!

Have a great weekend!!

UPDATE: I was just informed that my button HTML was a little out whack!! Well, I have fixed it and you should be able to use it now! I am learning so much about computers through blogging- who knew??

New Look!

So... what do you think of the new look???

Heres another addition of 
 Hoo are You??


1. Do you make a budget and keep it, or just fly by the seat of your pants?
 
I keep a running tab in my head:) This semester I have had to create a budget  for my finance class and I know I am already way over!!

2. Do you do spring cleaning and if so which month?
 
Every year since I have been married I have moved in May so I guess you could call that my spring cleaning :) I just cleaned through my house last month so maybe I won't be moving....
 
3. Are you a yard sale lover and do you have them and go to them?
 
LOVE yard sales! Sadly, Riverton yard sales are pretty lame and not all the great. I have a pile of stuff by my back door for the first weekend I can throw it out for a yard sale!!
4. What do you take when you have a headache?
 
I usually just suffer but if it gets bad enough I will take Tylenol.
5. Name 3 things that you feel lucky to have in your life!

Crackers and Milk


Okay so I admit this really isn't a 'recipe' but it is one of my favorite snacks! 

All you need is two ingredients
Crackers
Milk

Hard right

So you pour a glass of milk (any kind)



and then you dunk in your favorite cracker:)

You could do grahams

(my favorite) 
any variety is great! 
I prefer honey but the cinnamon make a great milk drink when the crackers are gone


OR  you could crush up some of these saltines 


and eat away- I like my crackers still to be crunchy but I know some who like them soggy

or you could duck a few of these babies



now I know these are probably considered more of a cookie than cracker but hey they are still delicious!


Sorry this is posted kinda late- my husband has the flu and so it has been fun keeping the kids away from 'daddy' so they don't get sick- it's so sad:( 

What do you like to dunk in milk??

Hoo are You Tuesdays!!

Welcome to another week of Hoo are you Tuesdays!! 

Here are this weeks questions!! 
1. Where do you usually have your thermostat set at in the winter?
Actually it is set around 70- I would love 72-74 but those extra degrees but cost a lot of extra money!
This has been one bitter cold winter!
2. What room do you tend to put off cleaning until last?
My spare room! It is the catch-all for EVERYTHING! I hate how it all piles up and just put it of forever. When it gets clean I get soo happy!
3. Do you like to clean with music on or off?
Totally with music! I love to sing and dance around while I clean- I figure its my workout for the day:)
4. When do you take time to blog?
Mornings- first thing or right before I head off to bed
5. How much time do you spend looking at other blogs a week?
 Oh, a LOT! I am trying to cut back but there are soo much cute stuff everyone makes!!

So what are your answers??
