Baking nerd. Paper Love

I just been baking Chocolate Chip Cookies like crazy. I made Fantasy Fudge and Mrs. Fields' Blue Ribbon Chocolate Chip Cookies!
(My go-to recipe now and forever ~!! )

 Mrs. Fields' Blue Ribbon Chocolate Chip Cookies and more is found at Mrs. Fields' blog:  Mrs. Fields Secrets. This is her REAL blog.

The Fantasy Fudge recipe is found on the back of the Kraft Marshmallow Creme bottle. The online recipe can be found here: Kraft Fantasy Fudge @ the Kraft website or here verbatim: http://www.christmas-cookies.com/recipes/recipe191.fantasy-fudge.html. Apparently, the recipe has changed a bit since the original was formed in a 9 x 13 in. pan using chocolate chips and the new is done in a 9 in. square pan using a melted semi-sweet chocolate bar.

Since it's a , I am trying to follow my resolutions.

My Resolutions are:
  1. Lose Weight. - So far I've lost 5 lbs. I love the Kinect.
  2. Organize and  Getting  Rid of Clutter - Threw out some old stuff, still working on that. Especially the uncluttered.
  3. More Patience with Family.
  4. Be more social. (Trying.)
  5. Update my education.
  6. Start a small business and make income with stuff I know how to do. No get rich quick schemes, etc. Just good old fashioned work.
  7. Re-do my domain, spatula-girl.net.
Found a printable Resolutions list here: http://printable.tipjunkie.com/new-years-resolution-list-printable/ and an inspirational desktop wallpaper here: http://lilmagoolie.com/2011/01/03/printable-resolutions-poster/.

Organize, organize with: http://www.mommytracked.com/,http://organizedhome.com, and http://www.livinglocurto.com/ is one of my new fav places to visit.

Holidays are upon us!

I hope everyone has enjoyed their holidays thus far. Thanksgiving was a doozy for the entire family...we all got colds.

Now, the weather is really cooling down. Our pilot light pooped out, so we have no central heating. This week is so busy. We're running around doing holiday shopping, kids got flu shots, kiddy X-mas parties, and holiday baking galore! TV is about to croak, so we got a new LCD 32" Sony Brevia at Best Buy! Hubby caved and treated himself to an XBox360 with Kinect, and got Dance Central.

Goal this coming new year is BE MORE ACTIVE!! This baby/me weight has got to go!

New KF Studio Printable Schedule 2011! Yay!

If you're like me, sometimes you want to get a two year planner but can't get one. If I'm lucky, I can find a really cute planner at Target for 1.00 US or somewhere else for under 3.00.

Or you can print and cut one out at:

It comes also with memo sheets!

Haven't blogged in a long while.

Yes, I've caved to FB-ing and tweeting. Ugh, the sign of the times.

Honestly, I haven't been crafting too much lately. Life has been terrible.


But, it's going to be a new year.

After trying to figure out how we were going to send our little girl to Preschool, we were lucky enough to find at our local parks and rec activities catalog: SATURDAY PLAYSCHOOL! Yay for us! Yay for her~!

She is such a talker and a big time social butterfly. She's excited to start today!

Reasons Blogging I have not.

Hello all,

I try to blog on here, but I'm getting BSOD and browser crashes.I'm frustrated. I just got a new laptop early this year. It has been giving me hell. I want to throw it against the wall.

I'm one year older, but I don't feel wiser.

My son just turned six just last week. He started school. He spent the summer in Summer School. We didn't do anything spectacular for him this time. Just dinner at the Cheesecake Factory and bought him a Buzz Lightyear at the Disney store.

Well, I better wrap it up before I crash-
