what a great shower theme concept! I'm planning (or planning to plan) a shower for my new sister-in-law, who I don't know very well. A book theme would be a way of creating a party that has an involved planner who is not a long-time friend :) books I'd use, to start: -- Corduroy yes! -- Spaghetti Park -- Let's Make Rabbits -- Swimmy -- 10 Minutes 'til Bedtime! -- Grow Vegetable Soup other ideas?

I have so many scraps. Monroe is so obsessed with cutting. I see a mother-son art project in our future.

my boys would dig this project. and it would work with already-tawny brown eggs!

salt dough: 1/2 cup salt, 1/2 cup warm water, 1 cup flour. Roll out and cut shapes, poke holes for string, bake at 250 for two hours (until hard all the way through), paint with acrylics if desired.

what to do with all that chocolate foil-wrap Make Your Own Glitter with salt and Tin Foil! * Baking Pan * Tin Foil * 1/4 cup of salt * 1/2 teaspoon of food coloring * Preheat an oven to 350 degrees. Directions: * Mix 1/4 cup of salt with a 1/2 teaspoon of food coloring in a small bowl until the salt is uniformly colored. * Spread the mixture out in an even layer on a foil-lined baking sheet. * Bake in the oven for ten minutes. Allow your homemade glitter to cool before using it. NOTE: * You may also store it in an air tight container for several months. * This glitter can be used for almost any type of project and may even be mixed with glue for special crafts.
