C is for.....

C is for: crafts! I found this little, round, neon green, gingham tin at the quarter store... yep just a quarter. I came home, cleaned it up and slapped a sticker on it...I'm not sure what I will use it for...but it is cheerful and will be fun to use. The sticker and the stickers below, came from the wallpaper border section at Dollar Tree.


What's a girl to do with so many empty bacon bit jars? I painted the lids and slapped more Dollar Tree stickers on the front... I made homemade orange tea mix for one, goldfish and turtle food are home to the polka dotted jars...the others are waiting patiently to be filled!

C also stands for today's awesome Church service on consumerism! The man in the plaid shirt on the far left...just lost his 15 year old daughter in a car accident. My heart breaks for him and I pray for him and admire his strength. He's had a tough Spring. I just want to hug him.

C stands for a big patch of Comfrey! I have done nothing with this herb, except feed it to our rabbits and put it in bouquets like the picture below! It's interesting in a bouquet of iris' don't you think?

p.s. I finished the book, The Persian Pickle Club...it was excellent. My friend Lisa W., you will be so very proud of me...I've set a goal for myself to read 15 books by the end of summer. Next up... Whirlwind by Cathy Marie Hake. Brad, Tommie and I did another 10 mile stretch on our bikes. It felt good...especially since I've ate way too many bbq potato chips this weekend. A hot shower is calling me...and so is my new book. Oh...I failed to mention ... at the shabby chic fair, they had a table of free books. This was one of them. So tell me...what book is in your hands this week?
