parentwin: Feminists' Box
http://www.parentwin.com/p/links.html
The Fake Career Woman. I don't understand the pro-life movement. A Tramp isn't just what she wears. Feminism - Doin' it wro. I hope you didn't think you were a person or anything. Why I'm going to continue to tell my girls they're beautiful. Beauty is in the eye of the self. Just a mom, Facebook? Yes Just a mom. Advice Column Perpetuates Rape Culture. Women have the right to birth control. Sandra Fluke and Rush. Women, Stop Oppressing Yourselves. The War on Women is not about Abortion. Then I went crazy.

parentwin: Birthday parties in the modern age
http://www.parentwin.com/2015/08/birthday-parties-in-modern-age.html
Friday, August 7, 2015. Birthday parties in the modern age. My kids are turning seven next Monday, and to celebrate, I'm throwing them a party at a local bowling alley on Saturday. And so, I find myself here. Just a few days before this party. With three kids coming. This is how far we've wandered, people. Right now, though, we do have six kids coming, which is plenty for me. This coming school year, I will do my best to promote at least acquaintanceship with other parents. I will try to learn about ...

The Creative Adventures of Kat: OH MY TUTU! A Giveaway.
http://creativelykat.blogspot.com/2011/01/oh-my-tutu-giveaway.html
Wednesday, January 26, 2011. There is nothing I love more than making tutus. For me it is how I relax after a stressful day. As evidence of this my daughter has more tutus than I can count. I’ve traded tutus for cloth diapers, made them as birthday gifts even. Next to my sewing machine sits several totes, the largest tote the one full of tulle. Anytime I go to the local craft, hobby or fabric stores I buy several yards of tulle. Shimmer tulle, matte tulle, in all colors of the rainbow. January 26, 2011 a...

The Creative Adventures of Kat: April 2011
http://creativelykat.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 18, 2011. Monday, April 4, 2011. I recently obtained a this book. It was my grandmothers she only ever made one of the animals in it for an auction. My goal is to make several this spring to give to the numerous babies that are about to become part of our extended family. I plan to make them all baby/young child friendly by using embroidery floss to create eyes rather than buttons. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Tales of an Unlikely Mother. Teaching Ain't For Heroes.

The Creative Adventures of Kat: Just Roll with It
http://creativelykat.blogspot.com/2011/01/just-roll-with-it.html
Monday, January 31, 2011. Just Roll with It. Our family has an upcoming vacation which involves over 10 hours on the road with three kids. When going over what keeps the three kids entertained we came to crayons and coloring books. In hopes of keeping things neat and tidy I decided to make some crayon rolls using the tutorial over at The Pleated Poppy. As always my first step is a trip to the fabric store. I brought the oldest with because I know he can be picky about patterns. Tales of an Unlikely Mother.

The Creative Adventures of Kat: To Sew or Not to Sew
http://creativelykat.blogspot.com/2011/02/to-sew-or-not-to-sew.html
Friday, February 4, 2011. To Sew or Not to Sew. I came up with one idea and upon coming home and trying it, I was successful. I was quite happy with the results, although I still needed a needle and thread. I still wanted a new sew flower as well. I was sure that I could come up with something. After playing around with tulle for a bit I figured that one out as well. I’ve outlined the basic steps I took to create the two types of flowers. Wrap the ends of the tulle around the center and tie in a knot.

Much Ado About Cooking: June 2011
http://adoaboutcooking.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Much Ado About Cooking. Thursday, June 23, 2011. I needed to do a little therapeutic cooking. I dug through the fridge and drug out some ingredients that were getting ready to go bad and decided to see what I could do with them. I chopped up a cup and a half of mushrooms and added one chopped shallot. Then I sauteed them in a pan for about 3 minutes with a tablespoon of olive oil. Just enough to make them a little tender. Then I got out 5 eggs. Don't they look cool? Links to this post. Steak Diane and Re...

Much Ado About Cooking. Saturday, July 30, 2011. Lemony Orzo Veggie Salad. This is a recipe I modified from one I found at cookinglight.com.

The Creative Adventures of Kat: March 2011
http://creativelykat.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 15, 2011. Easy as 1 2 3. Step one was figuring how to take the seat off. Thankfully that was simple it was being held on by four screws on the underside of the chair. Step two was removing the faux leather. It seemed like each chair had about 40-50 staples holding that awful fabric on. Thankfully they pulled out easily and a pair of needle-nose pliers came in handy for removing any staples which were left behind. Good Now my chairs look much nicer and are much more my style. Now if you wer...
