Happy May!!!

I'm all set for the month of May.   This is my cross stitch and crafting journal where I document what I am working on and future projects.  I use stickers to dress it up.  

Last weekend I didn't blog at all.  I was exhausted and just laid around all weekend.  I did some reading but no crafting at all.  I don't usually get sick but every once in awhile I "crash".

I've been meaning to share some products with you that I really like and thought you might also...first....

Method products........I especially like their foaming hand soap (in the front), left in back is their pink grapefruit surface cleaner and then next to that in the blue/green is their foaming tub and tile cleaner and last but not least I adore their Peace body wash....yum!  I used to use Philosophy and I loved their clean fresh scent but they started diluting it and you could barely smell it and it's not just me...others were complaining in reviews so now I  have a new love....Peace body wash.  I know some of you don't care for scented anything but I am all about good smells where ever I can find them! 

Another product that I have not actually used yet but have in my possession are self-adhesive curtain brackets....genius!!!  They do  include screws if  you have heavy drapes or something and you can always use more to support whatever you are trying to hang.  I will definitely let you know how they work when I use them.  They're going to be perfect for hanging my quilts too!


 Last but not least is a product I have always steered clear of....instant mashed potatoes, but I saw these and thought I would give them a try.  I love mashed potatoes but it's just me, myself, and I, so I tried them and dang if they aren't tasty!  They have all different kinds too.  I highly recommend.  You just add boiling water and stir and they're ready in 5 minutes!  They have larger family packets too.  Delish!

BTW all these products are available on Amazon and/or Walmart.

Sorry about the photo quality....it's getting ready to storm and it's very dark out.  I love a good storm!

Happy Trails!!!

I have the Method granite cleaner and love it. I use it in between the times I do the deep cleaning. Keeps my granite nice and shining.

Festive looking planner! We cannot do scents, Real Lemon I use in the bathroom cleaner that I make from scratch is as close as we get to fragrance. Hope you are having a good week.

I've actually bought those potatoes at dollar stores, too. Confession time. Yes, I know it takes no time to bake a potato, especially in a microwave. And it doesn't take much more time to peel a couple potatoes and boil them. But the cheapest potatoes are the biggest bags and we are two people. And you can boil 2 cups of water in the microwave in two minutes and stir and have a side dish, lol. I recommend the red potato version!

I have a lot of crash days lately. Days where I just can't bring myself to do much of anything. I use a lot of self-adhesive hooks to hang things on these concrete walls we have. During the seasons of temperature fluctuations, can often hear things crashing down and then I have to go investigate to find out what fell off the wall. I have A LOT of stuff on the walls. I used to make packet mashed potatoes when my kids were little with lots of butter and salt and pepper and they loved them. Then I decided to get healthy and make everything myself and the kids were very disappointed that my real mashed potatoes weren't as smooth and silky. Ha! :) Happy May crafting.

I have crash days and get told off strenuously by my sister for not achieving my steps goals! Half way around the world and we have similar items in our cupboards. Loving Method pink grapefruit handwash and the foam soap hand cleanser. Also love the furniture polish whose smell reminds me of marzipan. I've replaced the kitchen cleanser with another brand who send you their recycled plastic bottle and you just add a dissolving tablet into the bottle filled with water. Much more economical for me. I also love that particular mashed potato!
