a few pics of Danny

I was folding up laundry and putting it away.  then I began to wonder where Danny went...I checked in the bathroom.  He had taken the cloth wipes container (that I keep beside the toilet) and took a wipe out and went into the bathroom and turned on the bathtub faucet and got the clean wipe wet and was washing off himself.  I had to take a pic.  lol

He normally doesn't let his picture be taken.  I have to sneek it.  He was just catching me, when I snapped this one.  I thought it was so cute that Danny was sitting on Kyle's lap.  Him and Kyle get along really well. 



No Bake Cookies from my Mom

K and T window door window pic
1 stick butter
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup milk
3 to 4 Tbspns baking cocoa
1 tspn vanilla

Bring all of the above to a boil then boil for a full 2 minutes then add:

3/4 cup peanut butter
3 cups quick oats

Drop by spoonful onto foil.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These turned out really well.  Our other no bakes haven't been turning out.  I think these turned out so well because my Mom did the 2 minutes part, after the intitial boil.

yeah!!!  happy days here.  lol

Help Save Handmade!

Save Handmade Toys

We're all for strengthening the safety standards of mass-produced toys, clothes, and accessories made in China, and banning toxins like phthalates and lead. But this year, congress passed the ill-conceived Consumer Products Safety Improvement Act, a law which goes into effect in two months and will absolutely decimate the small toy manufacturers, independent artisans, and crafters who have already earned the public trust. The very same ones that we often feature here and in our yearly special edition gift guides.

With this act going into effect February 10 2009 so many people we love will be affected: Moms who sew beautiful handmade waldorf dolls out of home, artists who have spent decades hand-carving trucks and cars out of natural woods, that guy at the craft show who sold you the cute handmade puzzle--even larger US companies who employ local workers and have not once had any sort of safety issue will no longer be able to sell their goods. Not without investing tens of thousands of dollars into third-party testing and labeling, just to prove that toys that never had a single toxic chemical in them still don't have a single toxic chemical in them.

How to Get Involved -- it only takes 5 minutes of your time!

-Find your congress personand senators and write a letter like the sample here.
Particularly if they serve on the House Subcommittee on Commerce, Trade and Consumer Protection or the House Committee on Small Business.

-Send an email directly to the CPSC or contact chairperson Nancy Nord at 301-504-7923

-Vote for amending the law on Change.org, digg style:If it makes the top ten proposals, it will be presented to President Obama in January!

-Place the Save Handmade! button on your blog or website to help spread the word to everyone you know who cares about protecting the little guy and preserving beautiful items made with love for our children.
