As the weather is changing, the days are getting shorter and the weather is cooling down, I find myself starting the day with a warm cup of coffee. My favorite way to prepare a cup is with lots of chocolate flavored creamer, some sugar and a good coffee. I'm still experimenting with blends, finding out what I like.

Butterfly Cheese and Crackers Bento Box

Snuggle Like a Mermaid
Everyone has seen those adorable crochet mermaid tail blankets floating around the internet. I know I have. Like every week I see it at least a few times and I think to myself how much my daughter would love this. However, it's made from yarn and we have cats. Cats and yarn do not mix.
