Make something cool: Pup tent

Ran across this great idea today on the interwebz. Who doesn't want a pup tent? So cute!

Another version to try too - this one starts with a sheet and looks easy:

Summer drinks: Watermelon slushee

We are having fun experimenting with summer drinks at our house. We've master the orange julius, iced almond coffee, and chai tea blended drinks. Yummm... Today we invented a watermelon slushee and it was delicious! Great mocktail for using up watermelon that has gone a little mushy.

Watermelon Slushee

4 cups seedless watermelon cubed
4 T sugar
juice of one lime (optional)
8 ice cubes

Put it in the blender and let it go. The longer you blend it the smoother it will be.

Enjoy!

Make something cool: ruffled shrug

I just saw this adorable shrug on one of the blogs that I follow. It is made out of a t-shirt that was stained and looks simple enough to attempt. What a great way to repurpose clothes! I'm raiding my daughters dresser as we speak...
