Like most young girls her age in the universe Mischief is in LOVE with her American Girl doll.

So to try and contain the clutter I came up with this pretty sweet idea to re-purpose an old bookcase. Check it out.

One Word Wednesday

When I was brainstorming ideas for this blog I wanted to try a running weekly post that would inspire other people and give you a little insight into this crazy brain of mine.

So I came up with One Word Wednesdays. Each Wednesday I will give you one word that I am making a focus for the remainder of the week. In a world where we have the attention span of a gnat, words can still be very powerful. Just look at all the blogs out there, full of words but do we ever really HEAR them. Do we let them sink in and cause a change in us, make us better, move us to action?

As American as apple pie

So last week was the 4th of July. I am fairly certain it is written in Southern law that you must consume LARGE amounts of apple pie on our nation's birthday. So I set out toward the land of Google to find an amazing recipe the my 2 girls could help me with.

Google failed me..........

They all had so much sugar and the dough recipes required a degree in astrophysics. So I decided to use my trusted pre-made dough and make up the filling as I went. What follows might be the most amazing and organically genius apple pie recipe of all time. Enjoy and God Bless America!

Sit and have a chat won't you
