Spring Cleaning Challenge – Inexpensive Bathroom Organization Tips
| March 27, 2012 | Posted by Amee under How To . . . |
Yesterday, I talked about tackling the shoe and paper clutter in your life. Well, today I am spring cleaning and organizing my master bathroom. I detest my master bathroom because of its layout, and there is no storage. Every inch of my bathroom is builder-grade quality, and I am certain the person who designed it did not have little girls with hair ribbons, a wife who has makeup, or even… more

Cake Pops: What Not To Do!
| March 23, 2012 | Posted by Amee under Cooking, Desserts, Family, Gluten-Free, Kid's Corner |
Have you heard about the new cake phenomenon called “cake pops“, created by Bakerella.com? I was intrigued by these round, candy-coated cake balls, and thought how hard can they really be to make. I googled how to make cake pops and watched the video by Bakerella, and then went shopping at my local Walmart. The cake pops did not look difficult to make, and I was sure I could even… more

Telephones and Gluten Free Banana Nut Bread
| March 20, 2012 | Posted by Amee under Desserts, Gluten-Free |
“Hello Grandma! I saw an elevator today, we pushed buttons!” said Tristan as he held two bananas to his ears. Yes, bananas are a hit in this household, and go fast. Bananas are fun to eat, and can be great telephones to talk to our grandmas and grandpas with too. One of the first foods my son Tristan fell in love with was bananas. He loves bananas so much I… more
A Stick, Bulls and Gluten Free Blueberry Muffins
| March 19, 2012 | Posted by Amee under Breakfast, Desserts, Gluten-Free |
When I was a seven year old girl I lived in the deserts of Nevada where only tumbleweeds blew and coyotes howled. My sister Heather and I loved to go on adventures where we stuffed my mom’s soda cans down snake holes and caught horny toads for fun. We owned an old metal swing set in our backyard, but that was about it. Every season a local farmer let his… more
Happy St. Patrick’s Day Leprechaun Cake Pops
| March 17, 2012 | Posted by Amee under Desserts, Kid's Corner |
Happy St. Patrick’s Day from Inspired-Housewife! Today, I tried to make a four leaf clover cake pop, but it simply did not turn out. I got creative and made a little leprechaun cake pop. I think he is rather cute considering I only made a handful of cake pops in my lifetime. I made his head first and decorated it, letting the candy melt harden. Next I made a hat… more
Myrtle and the Loquat Tree
| March 16, 2012 | Posted by Steve under Tenderfoot Tales |
During the early 1960’s the first four members of the Hamilton Clan rented a small but well-located three bedroom home on Clovis Avenue in Clovis California. It was well-located, because it was near where I taught school, and it also had easy access and visibility for a new real estate brokerage business that I was starting. We remodeled the living room into an office, and this meant that Jori and… more
Shaving Cream Bathtub Painting Leads to No Mess Fun
| March 14, 2012 | Posted by Amee under Kid's Corner |
A few weeks ago I was on this awesome sight called Pinterest, of which you likely have already heard about unless you live under a shamrock. I happened to see a “pin” from Having Fun At Home. The mother on the blog used a mixture of shaving cream and food coloring as paint for her child in their bathtub. My first thought was it was a really cool idea that… more

How To Cook Lentils
| March 4, 2012 | Posted by Michael under Cooking: How To . . ., Dad's Corner, Gluten-Free, Vegetarian |
The art of cooking lentils varies with the type of lentil you wish to cook, but the steps are relatively easy. There are a number of varieties of lentils, and a number of sub-varieties of those. Lentils fall into green or brown (most commonly found in standard American grocery stores), red, black, and a number of other varieties. Usually, at least what I have seen in the United States, the… more
