Nov. 6: I am thankful for family time. Listening to my daughter giggle with her daddy is the sweetest sound on earth.
I am struggling to decide which series fits this post... so it will just be an ultimate cross-over series post: Randomly a few Things I Heart with some Super Mommy Secrets from my Goode & Gooseberry Patch Project...whew.
Today the fam and I ventured over to Flower Factory... aka Mama's Disney World.
Seriously.
I could spend hours in that place.
Flower Factory definitely qualifies for "Things I Heart".
I just heart all their inexpensive country decor fixin's and baskets... oh the baskets!
Their baskets are so economical and just perfect for decorating and entertaining...
I have shared many of their country decor pieces on here before, pretty much most of my decor now comes from there if I don't make it myself.
Ok, I realize that this could be considered a Christmas decoration and it is only Nov. 6.
The way I see it is that if Mother Nature can threaten snow flurries and wintry messes... then I can decorate any way I like...just sayin'
Anyhoo... While we were there today, I found this piece and absolutely loved it...
It is just perfect for all my Gooseberry Patch Cookbooks... another thing that I totally heart.
I know, I know-- you're shocked, right?
The thought that I heart/adore/ love Gooseberry Patch just caught you COMPLETELY off-guard.
Sorry.
I will wait while you pick yourself up off the floor.
Anyhoo, this cool little stand-a-ma-jig also has these awesome little pegs for pot holders... which I mentioned yesterday that I needed to invest in ;)

Notice one of my often mentioned books missin'?
Don't worry, she doesn't leave my side... I am often seen with her in my purse so that I can find ways to work her recipes into my next meal or meeting anytime I have a spare chance.
Speaking of that, tonight I didn't cook because we spent too much time playing at Disney World...
So, for tonight's Goode & Gooseberry Patch Project entry I thought that I would give you some of the awesome Super Mommy Secrets (tips) that are found throughout this gem of a book!
Some of my favorites are:
"Plain china glass mugs are easy to find. Create a one-of-a-kind set by adding polka dots, stripes or names with acrylic permanent paint...it's so easy and paintbrush clean up's a breeze using just water."
"Slip a favorite photo in a pint-size charm photo frame...so sweet on the front of a family cookbook album or journal."
"With no effort, a painted child's chair easily becomes a charming end table!"
"Instead of a shelf to hold bathroom towels, bring in an apple-green painted basket to do the task!"
Being the creative gal that I am, the little tips at the bottom of each page of all my GP books are one of my favorite things about them... they always get my mind a churnin' with new, fun ideas.
So, there you have it. My attempt at a cross-over series post: Randomly a few Things I Heart with some Super Mommy Secrets from my Goode & Gooseberry Patch Project... like I said-- whew.
3 GOODe Thoughts:
I heart those tips too! I certainly heart that ladder/stand thingy. I would love to have that.
All nice ideas! Thanks for posting them. I like your little easel for cookbooks. My poor cookbooks are hidden in the pantry and only see the light of day when I'm using them.
