Opps....I should always preview. But, I just made the basic white cake recipe.

I made the second rainbow cake for my son's second birthday and it was such a hit my daughter wanted it for her Groovy Girl 6th birthday. For the first one I used the McCormick liquid food coloring...

I like this idea a lot! Thanks for sharing it!

What a fun party!

My one piece of advice about a nursing chair is that it have a high back so your head has a place to rest. You'll be in the chair at all hours and sometimes it is nice to close your eyes and put yo...

I don't remember Bewitched in color at all ;)

we did this last fall with pears and with apples and it was so much fun...the kids still talk about it and both me and my husband were amazed with the difference among the pears and apples.

Nobody has mentioned Good Night Gorilla. My daughter enjoyed it; but my son LOVED it. We read it with him every night for almost a year and it still comes into rotation. My daughter loves Flotsam b...

I read once that smell is a reliable way of telling if your cake is done. After I read that, I noticed I would smell my cakes about 5-7 minutes before my timer was scheduled to go off. And it turne...

amazingly wonderful...what a lucky birthday boy! From a Fellow Busytown fan!

I live in King County Washington and the King County Library System has something for the younger set called Books to Grow On. They are boxes of books, videos, toys, CDs on a theme--there is usuall...

When we have flown, I have regularly picked up some of those Dover Sticker books and the Buki Activity books--they are small treats that are easy to carry. I also always pack pencils, colors and pl...

Super cute baby! Cute room too!

Funny to read the comment about sock monkeys. My friend gave my daughter one for her first birthday with the comment that she felt everyone needed a sock monkey. My co-workers gave me...

That said, the VIA toy boxes very cute and stylish.

In my daughter's room, I installed two long shelves across one wall of her room. Easy to clean up, just put the toys on the shelf. I can then vacuum the floor. We have several of the Land of Nod st...

For both my children, I used a storage tub for the books. I have a bin that is 21 long x15 wide x6 deep. The children flip through them and they can put them away themselves easily. I recently got ...
