I did it all myself!!

Liking the new look as much as I am?

Want to know how I did it all?

Well, ok then....here we go....

First, I went to a Blogging Bootcamp hosted by Sarah Roe and CC Miller.
They told me all of their secrets, well as many as they could get out in those three hours, and I came home and started going to the sites they talked about.

First, lets start with MakinCuteBlogs and Design It! Love It! she has a TON of tutorials.  

Seriously, a TON!

I also like TheCutestBlogontheBlock and of course google.

If there was ever a question about something I didn't fully understand I just googled it.

For a cute (simple) yet snazzy background I just discovered PatternCooler.com

Now, before today I would have had a complete page full of sites I LOVE with those cute backgrounds.  However, PatternCooler has ALL of them beat!  Yes, ALL of them!

I discovered PatternCooler thanks to google, it was on like page 5 I think, so worth the wait!

Why do I like PC?  WELL!  You pick the background pattern you like.  You then pick the color combo YOU want, then you pick the size of patter YOU want.  You can even adjust the fade of the pattern........ and the best part.....it is SOOOO easy! 

And the VERY best part??

TOTALLY FREE!  Yep, 10000% free!  WooHoo!!

Now, if you want to add cute fonts and signatures and post dividers I suggest you check out Kevin and Amanda!

Talk about put you on a cute font overload!  Oh my!

Have fun with your blog my friends!  Make it your own!  Do what YOU like!

I think I am FINALLY happy with mine....for now.

Now, this is the free way to go about doing a blog makeover.  There are PLENTY of sites out there that will design the entire thing for you and will even install it!  WOW!

Strawberries and Cream Instant Oatmeal | Recipe

I don't know about you but, we go through oatmeal like that is the only thing to eat on this planet!   Seriously a TON! My youngest would eat it for every meal and snack....every day....if I let her. Yes, the little packs can be cheap (if you can find a coupon and get them on sale) but it still adds up.  I used things I already had on hand so there was no extra cost to make this.  FREE is ALWAYS good!   I tried before to make little packets to keep on hand but that was a complete fail.  I have since reworked the recipe and am happy with the results.  I decided to just keep the oatmeal in a glass container this time and scoop out what we need, when we need it.  You can also make this into packets by just scooping the desired amount into zip-top bags. {Strawberries & Cream Instant Oatmeal}   12 Servings 6 Cups Quick Cook Oats 1 1/2 Cups Oat Powder 2 Cups Powdered Milk 1 - 1 1/2 Cup Sugar 1 Cup Fr...

Today I am posting at Mom It Forward!

Hey guys!  I have some EXCITING news!  Today I am posting over at Mom It Forward ! I have shared my Fiesta Chicken Tacos recipe, it is SO good!  Go check it out!  While you are there, check out all of my other posts I have shared there. The Fiesta Chicken Taco mix is GREAT on nachos as well!  I also made a quesadilla with some of the mix last night and it was AMAZING!  This is also a very frugal meal, the total cost for me was $2.67! Here is the breakdown: Leftover Chicken - Free Black Beans - $0.50 for 1 can Frozen Corn - $0.17 (it was on sale and I used coupons, it was $0.33/bag and I used half a bag) Tomatoes and Green Chilies - FREE (again, on sale and I had a coupon) Tortillas - $2 Total- $2.67!  Now, if you had to buy all of that at regular price it still equals out to a very frugal meal. Enjoy!
