my homemade marshmallows


my homemade marshmallows, originally uploaded by jodyrow.

I decided to make this fairly easy recipe for homemade marshmallows. They turned out very yummy. One regular batch and one peppermint...to make peppermint mochas! It was fun and let me break in my early Christmas present from luke (a kitchenaid mixer)! I think we will make it a Christmas tradition!

recent baby purchases




I have been spending a little of my craft money on these cute homemade baby items. Nothing really important things like bottles, strollers, or diaper genies, but too cute to pass up all the same!

my mossy wreath



Look at my festive front door! Just kidding! Martha Stewart motivated me to make this cute Christmas moss wreath. I thought if was a great idea since the moss was free right in my front yard. The wreath was cute for about a day or so until the moss dried up a bit and shrunk down leaving ugly bare spots. By then the snow had covered the ground so I could not harvest any more moss. So I will not post a picture of my sad looking Christmas wreath. Here is a pic of what Martha intended it to look like.
