Card Buffet

Here is a picture of my card buffet. there will be several project/cards to pick from in each one of these boxes. You pick the card/ boxyou want to make and all the things you need are in the box.  There might be a few things that are not because they are a shared item but I will help with that.  The next card buffet is Sunday Oct 28th at 3:30 pm.  Please RSVP so that I have enough room for everyone! ~Tina

I will be posting a picture of the new cards that have been added to the card buffet.  The card buffet is 1st come 1st serve so make sure you sign up if you like the card that has been added to the buffet. I make enought for about 15 people (cards) after they are gone. You might have to settle with another cute one! =-)

Here is the latest addition to the card buffet.


Hope to see you soon ~ Tina

Mini Cheesecakes

I love to make mini-cheesecakes with puff pastry shells! It's so easy, and they're always a big hit. The little shells are available in the frozen food section of the market. Then I buy the Jello No-bake Cheesecake and a can of cherry pie filling. Just follow the directions on the cheesecake box, omitting the first step (the crust). After mixing the filling, just spoon it into the puff pastry shells, top with cherry filling and Viola! An easy appetizer that any SHE can make!!

Flybaby Fridge Cleaner (leftovers)

I call it the Flybaby Fridge Cleaner and it is from Newmarket, Ontario - north of Toronto.

One whole chicken, or chicken parts - rinsed and placed into Crock pot. Mix together odds and ends from your fridge door and cupboards to equal one cup. Add bits of salad dressings, jam the kids didn't like, etc. Works best if it half sweet - jams, etc and half savoury - salad dressings, bbq sauce, etc. Clean out a lot of clutter and it is always good but never the same twice!

October ~ Holiday Countdown Checklists

Here's a Holiday Countdown Checklist that I am trying to use
By the end of October or maybe the end of December... lol.


Make one list of the gifts you need to buy and carry it around with you. Try and purchase one gift every time you are out shopping (don't forget gifts for teachers, babysitters and others that have helped you this year).

Begin to cook double of one meal each week. Good meals to try are chili, pulled chicken or pork, beef stew (all can be done in a crock pot and then frozen). I haven't done this one yet.

Get tickets to holiday events--seats for seasonal favorites fill up fast.

Arrange travel, hotels and boarding for pets. if you travel?!?! not me =-)

Good Luck !!!
