My First Post

I decided to start a second blog focusing on my many other interests. I will include my other interests besides papercrafting here. First of which is raising my four boys. I have stories to tell about these monkeys! I also love to travel, we lived overseas in Israel for nearly 3 years and loved every minute of it. I adore cooking and I guess I'm pretty good at it since there is not much talking around the dinner table....mostly slurping. I like to read, mainly mysteries, but I'm also working my way through some classic literature as well.

I run my business Pink Hedgehog Paper Crafts from home. It comes in handy when one of my boys breaks their arm, gets sick, or if there's a day off of school. I have a BS in psychology but I've always been a stay-at-home Mom from the day I graduated in 1994. I tell my kids I use my degree to mess with their heads, and it's not far from the truth!

I also love cooking and have recently taken up knitting (about a year ago). I plan to archive my knitting projects, share recipes and cooking tips. Watch for more stories and events. Here's a couple of teasers:

• The $10,000 toothpick
• Happy Family Potato Soup
• His & Hers Wedding Scarves
• What do you do when you have to pee and you're on the top of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris?
• World's Best Enchiladas
• Globe Trotting Cat
• What's Rubbish?
• Leave the Dead Gophers in the Ground.
• The 6 Year Old GI Joe
• When a boy plays fetch by himself.

That's just a few of the tales I have to tell. Watch for lots of recipes and photos of yummy food. I'll show my knitting projects in progress and tell goofy stories about my kids.

That's all for tonight, but I'll be back soon!
