I Need...
...A colander much like one of these. I want it in color, but not pink or red. pretty much any other color would do. I want one that will not chip off the color easily, hand wash only is okay. If you see one around, used is fine, please let me know! THANK YOU!


Potato and Sausage Roast
This is a dinner I made a few nights ago that was REALLY easy and was good too, I like easy and good!
- 1 Package of Italian sausage (about 5 links)
- 2 Bell Peppers- 1 Sweet Onion
- 1lb Red potatoes (cut in quarters) about 4 potatoes
- 1-2 Tbsp Olive Oil
- 1/4 tsp oregano
- 1 tsp Garlic Salt
- Dash of pepper
Directions:
Preheat oven to 450 degrees.Wash and cut peppers and onions into strips. Wash and cut potatoes too.Place all of the cut veggies onto a large baking sheet.Toss veggies with olive oil and seasonings.Cut sausages into 3-4 pieces per sausage. Place the sausage pieces on the pan with the veggies.Place pan in the oven and bake for 30 minutes.
Remove and serve!
I used 5 potatoes and used garlic power and salt once I saw that my garlic salt had expired. I also used a yellow onion instead of sweet, they didn't have sweet where I was and I also used Bratwurst instead of Italian Sausage. Still turned out GREAT!

Furniture Transformation Projects
My sister Bubba (Kristi) got me into a few blogs where people are transforming furniture from something not so great, to something amazing. I am now going to be working on the following projects and can't wait to see how they turn out.

I got this from craigslist for $10. The guy who had it got it from his father who passed away years ago. They are now moving to Arizona and he's now parting with furniture he doesn't have use for.
This is a shelf that has been in the garage since we moved in. A man and his wife built this house, the man passed away and the woman is the one who we purchased the house from. I'm sure that it's been in the garage for many years. We plan to take it off the wall, and possibly make it a shelf to put our DVD player etc. in.

We rented out our house and when we moved back in this shelf was here. This is the story that was given to me by the person who brought it into the house:
This was made by a great grandfather for someone who had a yard sale in Oregon City and were selling it the day before they moved to Kansas. The lady had it since she was two and it was made for her room then, and later on used it for a TV stand. When Karen, who bought it at the yard sale got it home she used it in the living room, then in the garage.

This I found at the Goodwill Bins for $15. I got this on one of my shopping trips with Mandie Pandie.

This was my moms, and I'm not sure who had it before her. She painted it three times, how it's my turn because I haven't changed it since it was painted for my room when I was little. I love this dresser and plan to pass it on in the future to one of my kids. This is a sturdy thing!
So, there you have it, my projects. I plan to do one at a time so I don't get into a mess and not finish them. I can't wait to see how these all turn out!

A New Blog

I decided to start this blog to talk about crafts, things and stuff. Pretty much just a blog to talk about things I like, things I want or projects I'm working on. I have blogged some of this same stuff already on my other blog, but I decided I'm going to make that one private because it has my little baby on it and she really doesn't need to be all over the internet. Although, I think she's pretty darn cool and who wouldn't want to see her?
I'm going to duplicate some of the same postings that I've put on the other blog, then keep them my craft, things and stuff on this blog in the future.
Let the blogging begin!
