Too long since I have written

I know it has been awhile... But I have been very busy. I am now working 2 jobs, and with it being so cold, I have not had much desire to go into my craft room, which is in the basement, and colder then the rest of the house. :(
I have been crafting off and on though. Whenever I manage to get the spare time, and the inspiration, which is not much lately.
Here are a few pics of what I made just before Xmas.



These are just a couple wreaths I made for Xmas gifts. I loved making them. I am thinking of making some for Valentines day as well. Whenever I can get to the dollar store. We have been stuck in the house for a week because of the blizzards we have been having. But the weather is starting to clear up, so hopefully I get the chance this week to get there.
This was one day, when I got stuck out of town, before the weather struck. This is good compared to what it became later in the day.
I am ready for spring. And hopefully my creativeness will return as well.
Hope everyone is happy and healthy. :)
Have a great week.
Hugs,
Melissa D

Summer time means campfire time

This is some of my family, the 3 ppl on the right are my cousins, visiting from China, their other little girl is off exploring the beach.
We had a wonderful day starting with a fire on the beach of the Atlantic ocean. I (and the rest of the community) take for granted that we live right next to the Atlantic, it was wonderful seeing this from someone else's eyes. I am so glad they had fun at the beach, I had a great time catching up with them as well.

I have not been very active on here but I have been caught up with tons of life stuff. I am trying to stay busy with my crafts because I will be having my first ever table at a craft fair type thing. Any tips from my fellow craft fair bloggers on how to best display my crafts???

Changing crafts again.

This (above) is what is taking up most of my crafting time lately. Smile I am still working with Vinyl, and clay, and cards, just beading is taking over lol.

I love making bracelets and learning new stitch techniques. And I like the fact that I can do this on the couch instead of going to my chilly craft room. Smile

What is everyone else doing?? hope everyone is great.

I have not received a comment since I switched over to the new dashboard with blogger, I hope it’s just a coincidence, well if it is blogger messing up good, cause I know that will be fixed, but if it’s because I have lost the few followers I had, I am sad Sad smile and sorry I know my post have been sucky and few lately. Forgive me please.

 

Hugs,

Yogurt review…


Source_dessert
I just tried a new yogurt. I bought these yogurts yesterday. They are from Yoplait Source Dessert. And I give them a 7 out of 10. I have only tried the Cafe Latte flavour yet, but this one passed, and I am not a fan of coffee. But this was yummy.
You get 16x100g containers in a pack, and at my grocery store they were on sale for $6.49 CDN so to me that is a good price. And they don’t contain added sugar so to me that’s a good thing. Most of the yogurts sold at the store near me has a crap load of sugar.
The pack I bought comes in the following flavours:
Creme caramel, Cafe latte, Strawberry parfait, Raspberry-chocolate. Can’t wait to try the other flavours. So I will be editing this post as I try more of them. Smile
Go get some yummy goodness.
Hugs everyone, have a great Wednesday,
Melissa D
**** Updated: Raspberry-chocolate is I'd say about a 6 out of 10. And I don't even like raspberries. :)
