Who doesn't like free money? I wish I had a money tree for all the free money I'd love to have, but this is why this post is for you guys!

CSN contacted me about doing another giveaway for all you wonderful readers, and I, of course, said yes!

So here's the skinny. We all have tables. Coffee tables, end tables, console tables, buffets, random tables. CSN has a wonderful array of console tables. Here are a few of their vast inventory!

Saturday was Harrison's very first birthday! Yay!

For his birthday we had a Dr. Seuss themed party for him. We didn't snag the photos that Steve's father took. Doh! I'll have to bug him for them :) Here's what we got though.

This is the view from our front  door. We have some trees from the Lorax. I made the pom-poms from Martha's site, but I alternated colors of  tissue paper since I did not have enough of any one color.

But apparently I make a pretty decent quick bread. Little known fact: I do. Not. Bake. Period. Why? Because baking is a lot like chemistry. There are a lot of ingredients that have to go into a baked good and, if they don't go in in the right amounts or in the right order, you'll have a disaster on your hands. Another little know fact: I barely passed high school chemistry. It just doesn't make sense to me with all of those ide's, ade's, ite's, and ate's. Not to mention that unreliable unit of measure known as a mole. Nope, I will stick with my literature and art and other variably interpretable subjects, thank you very much.

Well, I really like quick breads and pound cakes and whatnot, so I decided it was high time for me to give them a go. I got a lemon bread recipe from Taste of Home and a pumpkin bread recipe from Heather.

Sidenote: Heather may have already posted her pumpkin bread recipe, so I apologize if this is a repeat.
