Mason Jar Soap Dispenser

I loved this idea when I pinned it and I made one of these about a month ago right away and I love my soap dispenser!

So I made as part of a Wedding gift for a friend. I just love these! :)

The hardest part is drilling the hole in the lid but it works out.

Also I etched her new last name in the glass with an etching tool- so fun! :)

Did I mention how much I love these anywhere...? ;)

Broiled Parmesan Tilapia

Made it tonight!  I actually ate some of this, I hate fish, but the topping was so good.  Pyper ate it!  Since she's one, I think that's a big deal.  Make it, you'll like it!

Creamy Pesto Sauce

I pinned this recipe from All Recipes one of my favorite sites to get recipes from.  The recipe turned out fantastic and I didn't even follow the instructions to the "T".  Which if you know me at all you know that I don't read directions well.

I have made this 2 times since posting it 4 weeks ago, if that tells you how good it is.  The second time I made it I used sun dried tomato pesto, which I prefer.

Here was what I did differently, in case you want to try it:
My first comments from Pinterest:
I used 3/4 cup heavy cream and 1 and 1/4 cup 1%milk. Used thin spaghetti noodles. Grated fresh asagio cheese. And didn't use mushrooms, shrimp or fresh tomatoes. I did however put in a can of Ro-Tel which made it PERFECT! Just enough kick to be noticeable but not overpowering.  My picky eaters LOVED this, which is a relief!


The second time I made it:
 this time left out the onions, used pene rigate noodles and used sun dried tomato pesto. WHOA.SO.GOOD.

Simple Crock Pot Chicken & Rice

Here is another idea I pinned :

 We tried it and it was pretty good! Super Easy too : ) 

A new recipe

 I pinned this and made it. It tasted just like a regular baked potato, but more work lol 

A Little Humor for a Monday

Okay this is super childish, but I though it was super funny.... I pinned this- 

and then.... I did these (not perfect, but I you get it) ... in all of the stalls in my work bathroom! It was SO funny to hear the buzz around the office. PLUS someone actually took a picture of it of one of them and posted it on FB. So much for a boring Monday huh!?

I pinned this- 

And we were out playing the other day and I remember it and took this- 

I like it but I want to do brighter chalk colors and a higher camera angle next time.
