Cookie Mania - Cookie of the Month!

What a delicious idea, three months of delectable 

cookie-wiches. Tookies promotes this as a gift idea but

 I am half enticed to go ahead and buy this for myself, 

(my sweet tooth is screaming 'do it. do it')... and 

with cookie names like; Sweet Sugary Lemon 

Cookie-wich, Chocolate Gooey Brownie Cookie-wich

 and Soft and Sweet Pastel Pretties Buttercreme

 Cookie-wich how could one resist?! 

Tookies also offers cookie Jars like this Smores 

Bar Cookie Jar... Which are pretty amazing. 

New Mat... Brilliant DIY

So, Between the sandy/rock driveway that Dave 

and I have and the fact that Dave is a Contractor and

 has some pretty mucky shoes on a regular basis our

 pretty blue door mat turn brown pretty fast. I have 

been dreaming about a creative durable solution for a 

while and it looks like I found it over at How Does She.

 Look at the clever way she repurposed these old stakes! 

This mat would look great on our front step and would 

compliment our rustic decor perfectly. And as a bonus it

 would get rid of some of the scrape wood in the back

 that we have lying around from some of Dave's odd 

jobs (double score)...now... 

where to find those adorable frog boots...

love.

Spreading it around a little.

Herb Infused Lemon Popsicles

Its gonna be a hot one today...

they are calling for a heat index of 110 today.

Holy Hotness. 

The forecast across the nation appears the same-ish.

Here is a delicious nice frosty recipe

 to help cool you down for the day. 

Rosemary-Infused Lemonade Popsicles 

makes six to eight 3 oz. popsicles

1 cup water
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
2 big sprigs rosemary, plus a few leaves for each popsicle
zest of 1 lemon
1 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice (10-12 lemons)

In a medium saucepan, combine the water and sugar and cook over medium heat. Once the mixture has boiled and the sugar dissolved, add the corn syrup, lemon zest and rosemary, and simmer for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and allow the rosemary to steep while the mixture cools, for at least 15 minutes.

Remove the rosemary sprigs. Combine 1 cup of the simple syrup and the lemon juice. Pour into popsicle molds along with a few whole rosemary leaves, freeze for 40 minutes, add the sticks, and then freeze completely for 3 hours or more.

Drinks anyone?

Don't let your drink dribbles get you down! 

Protect your tables in style. Aren't these wooden 

doily coasters from Uncommon so adorable? 

I think they would make the perfect house warming 

or hostess gift. Or the perfect "its Wednesday, 

Im in a rut and need to get a cute package in the 

mail soon gift" it suites all needs really. 

I think they are positively adorable!

That puts me in charge of putting together the 

most amazing bachelorette party ever. I have

been racking my brain to figure how to make 

that happen. This morning I came across these images.

She is a pretty low key girl... wouldn't it be AMAZING 

if I used helium and found a way to cover every inch 

of the ceiling in brilliantly colored balloons?! 

She would adore it!
