Potato Peeling Made Easy - And a Titus 2sday Link Up!

Dawn Wells, aka Mary Ann from Gilligan's Island, demonstrates a unique way to peel an Idaho potato...without the use of a potato peeler!

I've never been too fond of potato peeling because my arm is crooked and after about six of them my arm starts to get sore. I'm definitely going to give this method a try. Now... if only eggs were that easy!




You are loved by an almighty God,

My Second Clothes Pin Bag

And a Titus 2sday Linkup!


So last week when I made my clothes pin bag, I told you that I could do better--and I think I did. All it took was five minutes at the thrift store and I had a few adorable baby dresses in my hand and ready to go.

This one appealed to me in particular because the strawberries are a good fit for my kitchen. In addition to that, I love the pockets on the dress, because they are a great place to hold packages of Kool-Aid. I hung it on the wall, stuffed it with plastic bags and filled the pockets.

This dress was only $2.99. That's a lot less than I would have spent if I went out and purchased the fabric, and the buttons. And because the dress was sleeveless, all it needed was one seam across the bottom.

My daughter Madison suggested that I make one for my sister's sewing room. I love the idea. She can store fabric scraps inside the bag, and use the pockets for sewing notions like thread and a tape measure.

It's a good thing I picked up a few!

Enjoy your homes, ladies! God loves a cheerful giver, let that include the gifts of homemaking we offer our families!


Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will
also reap sparingly, and whoever sows
generously will also reap generously.
