Oil & Vinegar Lazy Susan

March 6, 2013 by Elaine No Comments

Chef Kev loves to have all his cooking essentials close at hand and I love to organize so basically, a marriage (pun intended) of the two was bound to happen…

Now, the ‘before’ wasn’t a horrible mess, but did make my need-for-things-to-be-tidy-and put-away problem a little nuttier.

 
But then I remembered that we had been given this as a Christmas present years ago.
 
 
We do use it, but not daily of course, so I stole the lazy susan component from the box! Come on out Suzy!
 
 
Then I gave the bottles a good clean and loaded them on…
 


And a few minutes later I had a nice and organized oil & vinegar collection!
 
I love it when a plan comes together…
 
Especially when the plan spins! Weeeeeeee! ….
 
 
What about you? Any quick and easy updates around your home? I know I’m not the only one out there who likes things all nice and tidy so ‘dish’. See how I did that? Cooking, kitchen, dish? Ah, never mind.

March Calendar Roundup

March 1, 2013 by Elaine No Comments
March is one of my favourite months! Why? Because my birthday is this month! It also happens to be the birthday month of my little guy Chace, my dad, my father-in-law, my brother-in-law… AND my aunt (who shares the same birthday as me). And now that I think about it, I have quite a few friends who share this birthday month too… wowza, this is a busy month!

Here is the collection of desktop calendars that caught my eye for March. Simply click on the link below the one you like to be redirected to the download.

Every child is an artist

August 17, 2012 by Elaine No Comments

TGIF!

I came across this today and loved it so much that I had to share.

So true. So true.

Being in a creative profession (I’m a Graphic Designer) I believe this to my core. I work hard to foster Chace’s (my three year old) creativity and keep him inspired. There is nothing better then seeing the uninhibited creations of a toddler.

Have a great weekend everyone!
