Happily living a simple life, exploring the great outdoors with my husband and our 2 amazing girls. I'm a Shutterbug-constantly taking pictures and have had a real camera in my hand since I was 12 years old! I love to cook, craft, bake, travel and help people! I've been told I'm a "Jane of all trades" but I usually refer to myself as having Creativity A.D.D. This blog will consist mostly of recipes and foodie posts, but occasionally I come across an organizing idea or DIY post I just can't resist sharing!

Did someone say Sangarita?

Frozen Sangarita? Um, yes, please! What an awesome recipe! You just layer frozen Margarita and Sangria, super simple and so delicious! I think this will be my new favorite for Summer! Now, to get a new blender that won't protest when I throw ice in it...
