I always come home and tell my 9yo daughter, Jasmine, about what's going on at Susan's house. She loves it too!<br /><br />P.S. The crayon maker is awesome (J has one and I hate broken crayons, so this little machine is genius), and secondly, the rice thing works. My mom washed (yes, in the machine clothes washer - washed) her cell phone recently. She didn't know it was in there til her phone started ringing from inside the washer. We put her phone in a bag of rice for a week and it works!YarnOnTheHousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08418269642619415980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35689847.post-3701161989648873212011-01-11T22:02:37.147-06:002011-01-11T22:02:37.147-06:00you have to bury the phone in the rice for it to w...you have to bury the phone in the rice for it to work. Mine went for a swim in my morning coffee in the car on the way to a play, and it was 6 hours before I could rescue with the rice.

When I lived where winter came on hard and dark and full of snow and the world was a monochromatic black, white and gray all winter, I started budgeting for flowers in the house after New Years Day when the Christmas lights were gone. The first tulips at the grocery always went home with me. Worth every penny! Now that I live where the roses bloom until Christmas (I never seem to have many there for the New Year's Eve table though, and there's always something blooming and NEVER any snow(Yay!) I don't need to . I still bring some in in the winter anyway because the days are short and we get a lot of gray, rainy days. they always help.<br /><br />By the way those are lemon leaves which are great to use for making chocolate leaves.KarenJnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35689847.post-8880179535377964572011-01-08T14:34:34.705-06:002011-01-08T14:34:34.705-06:00Oh, just have to put in a plug for a great Baby si...Oh, just have to put in a plug for a great Baby sitters club blog.<br /><br />http://bscag.blogspot.com/<br /><br />My DD has every single book and has been rereading them and blogging about each story line.

I need to borrow your phrase, "Quit your bickering!" with my two boys. I'm not sure it will work on them, though, haha! The tote TC made is cute, and I love the grumblings about her blanket. I feel that way about a bunch of icords I'm knitting up. I hope Peachy's phone turns out okay! Oh, and I was wondering about that Crayola crayon maker... I'm thrilled to see if actually works. You wouldn't believe the mess of broken crayons we get around here! I love the handmade cards, too. I have a large stamp collection that I don't utilize often enough. Your post reminded me about that.
