Simplify 2012 ~ Super Bowl Party
Unless you live under a rock I'm sure you have heard that the big game is this Sunday.
I am not a fan of watching any sports unless I am there in person.
Honestly it is an entirely different experience actually being at a game or big event.
I will probably check in for the halftime show & a few commercials,
I mean c'mon isn't that why most of us Mamas watch it anyways? Lol
So whether you're having friends over, going somewhere,
or just watching the game with family I
wanted to post some things that will help you
make the most out of your Super Bowl Party, & not spend it in the kitchen all day.
Here are a few simple, fast, & tasty apps for your "party"
I have made these Creamy Spinach Pinwheels from
A Few Shortcuts quite a few times-a definite keeper!
I have a list of recipes I want to try from the same site so here are some that would be
perfect for any get together.
This Buffalo Chicken Dip gives you the flavor of hot wings without the mess! Score!
And fresh Salsa is the best.
And for a little something sweet how about S'mores Pops!?!
& for all of you football fans out there
is offering up a FREE mat of any NFL team you like just for
picking the Super Bowl team that wins!
Enter HERE
Entering is simple so why not show the football fanatic in your life that you have team spirit too :)
I'm rooting for
(that's not my house btw, oh and when I say "rooting for" I really mean
I randomly chose )=D
Much love

My Favorite Things Friday Link Party ~ #27 & Blogging Advice 101
So I am realizing (after almost a year of blogging) that
*it's OK not to post something every single day(not saying I have),
* it's time to really start opening up on here & letting down my walls as a blogger,
*if I have a stressful week and can't find any free time to craft or post that my readers will
forgive me, after all most of you are moms and/or fellow bloggers & you understand,
*& that I want to have followers that like & read my blog for what I post about,
and I will no longer require it for giveaway entries.
OK, thank you for all who linked up last week!
Look at me favs
Check out what my new friend Donna from Loopy Loop Creationsmade, so simple
I love bringing nature inside & here's how to use it for Vday from Making Over The Martins
This lovely clutch comes from Sew Fantastic, & she says it's a great
beginners project. So I will totally try it out just as soon as I get my sewing
machine out of the box & figure out how the thing works ;D
I LOVE everything about this scrabble tile! Wow so pretty!
Artsy Va Va shows us how
& ever wonder how to make you're own baker's twine?
Vanessa over at Nifty Thrifty Things has the answer.
Great posts this week! I am excited to see what you link up this week! If you
have been featured in my Stay At Home Nation Spotlight then grab yourself my button
(located at the top of my sidebar) & post it proudly because you earned it!
Now let's have fun & link up below. All I ask is that you visit at least 2 other links

yes it's true I am coming up on my 1 year mark of being a blogger. I really
enjoy blogging & crafting, as well as cooking(and eating too) :)

Have fun No Rules! But I do ask that you please consider to continue to help spread the word about my
blog & my Link party by posting my button in your 'parties' section under Friday link parties.
I have had quite a few of my posts pinned on pintrest so that's a good option too, &

Simplify 2012
Hello Hello
I'm sorry I haven't been posting much recently but I'm really trying to get the house organized & get rid of things we don't need or aren't using for 2012. We really want to get
the most out of our lives in 2012 & simplify.
I'm sure you have read other bloggers who have said the same thing. I know it sounds great but
is it possible to make such drastic changes?
Join me in 2012 as I simplify my life, lose this baby weight, & get organized.
I will be posting tips for making these things a reality & I would really love for you all to
share in my journey with me.
We all have areas in our lives that we would like to change or better.
If you want to enjoy life more, get fit, & organize your life once and for all then
let's make it happen this year!!!
Why not do it together & share each others progress & tips?
Even if you have personally made changes like these to better your life then
it would be great for you to share your success stories with all of us to
help encourage us that it CAN BE DONE!!
There was Occupy Wall Street & now I'm starting
Simplify 2012 at Stay At Home Nation.
Contact me HERE if you would like to guest post with tips for
organizing, weight loss, simplifying your life, or anything else amazingly helpful.
My Favorite Things Friday Link Party will still continue
every Friday at midnight & will be open all week, so be sure to link up whatever
you have been busy working on. I love to see all of your craftiness & keep an eye out for my weekly features from the previous week's party!
Honestly ya'll.....
yes I say ya'll but I do not have a southern accent......
"ya'll" is probably the only southern thing that I have picked up in my 31 years living in
Georgia, well that & grits.
Much Love
