The seasons are changing, time to re-organize your closet!
Posted by: | CommentsCreating an efficient closet space is a challenge, even for me. It seems like closet spaces come in all shapes and sizes anymore, so it can be difficult to decide what really belongs inside.
About a week ago, we had our first freeze. It got down to 28 degrees and I just wanted a nice warm sweater to wear. As I searched through my closet to find something warm, I realized that my closet was a mess. It’s a pretty big space and I was starting to just toss things that clearly didn’t belong inside. NOTE TO SELF: having more space in your closet doesn’t mean you need to fill it with stuff.
I was quickly reminded of that it’s time to switch out the summer and winter cloths in my closet. Here is what I did….

Posted by: | Commentsby Corrie Petersen
Starting a new business when you work full time can be a challenge, but it is possible. There is a lot of prep work that you should do before you start. Being prepared is key in the success of your business.
• Organize your home
Start by organizing your home. Get rid of things you don’t need or want anymore. Give your home a once over from top to bottom, room by room. Make sure everything in your home has a specific spot it goes in and that it always stays there. Get rid of clutter as well.
When you start a new business with a clean home it won’t take you as long to clean each day or week. When you have more time, you will be able to work your business more during each day and week. Read More→

Holiday Baking: Time-Saving Tips and More
Posted by: | Commentsby Tammy Embrich
There is nothing better than the sweet smell and delicious flavor of fresh homemade pies, cakes, and cookies…especially during the holidays.
Baking for the holidays should be both rewarding and fun. Get your kids involved. Have them go with you when purchasing the ingredients…make a day out of it and go for lunch. It will make the day more meaningful and also will get your children interested in actually helping to prepare your family favorite treats.
You can always take the easy way out and purchase Mrs. Smith or Sara Lee ready-made desserts. But of course, it’s just not the same as made from scratch and certainly not as much fun. If you’re like me…you want everything festive, special, and homemade. The aroma of homemade delights baking in the house gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling. Read More→
