Pinday Wednesday

There are tons of recipes for crockpot meals I am dying to try.  Mornings are Hallie's happiest time, and Griffin is usually content to play with his toys without constant Mommy entertainment before lunch so its the way to go if we want to have dinner on the table  before 7-8.  We tried a  crockpt lasagna recipe  last night, and it was pretty good!  

Find the recipe HERE.

I did tweek it a little bit. I skipped the mushrooms since I knew Griffin wouldn't  eat them and added a chopped onion and half of a red pepper when I browned the meat. We really liked it, but next time, we may not use all of the cheese. 




We cooked it for four hours and then enjoyed with some sauted broccoli and sliced bread with pesto. 


This one is a Pinterest win for sure!

Pinday Wednesday

We have all been a little sick over here since the weekend, and that means we were about to lose our minds.  I have mentioned my undying LOVE for Pinterest before, and I really do try do some of the things I find.  I'm at at 5% success rate and going strong :)

This week we made homemade slime.  A late 80s/90s kid such as myself would refer to this ask "GAK."  It was a HIT.  I'm talking about hours of entertainment.

You can find the website HERE.

We did add a little more glue than it called for.  It only takes a little Borax so one box will last forever, and now is the perfect time to stock up on glue since its back to school time around here.


Griffin helped me mix it together.  When we needed to use our hands to finish it, he started crying because he didn't want to touch it. Ha.




It took him a minute, but he came around.






He always wants to make mustaches :)


I think we will make this in all colors of the rainbow in the near future.

Happy Pinning!
