T-Shirt ReFashion

by gidget sewing & crafts

It started out as a boring t-shirt (cute print, boring shape, bought second-hand). I wanted to make it into a halter, based on a cute hand-me-down from my sister-in-law… voilá! Sorry about the poor, late-night lighting… I really love how it turned out. Can’t wait to make another!

Pineapple-Basil Chicken Salad and Roasted Squash & Gouda Soup

by gidget food

This recipe is by no means an exact science, but I love how these two dishes cook up together nicely. The soup is based on one we had at our CSA’s farm visit day, and the salad is a variation of one I saw in Everyday Food magazine. What I love best is how you [...]

Tending to Eden {Book Review}

by gidget green & natural living

Photo by newbeatphoto Can you believe it’s been six months since the big earthquake in Haiti? I can remember praying fervently as a fellow blogger attempted to get out of the country, forced to leave behind the son she was trying to adopt (he eventually came home to the US thanks to Humanitarian Parole).

I went for the classic custard-style ice cream, because I’ve had better results with it in the past and it paid off. Since then, [...]
