A 100% SAFE way to make kids bath water glow.  No highlighters.  No harmful chemicals.  All you need is ONE ingredient found in almost any grocery store.  It is 100% edible, safe for kids, and even made for ingestion.  (Glowing bath water is just TOO FUN not to try when made in this way)

this looks so fun for the kids why not have glowing bath water from bath time its only made with 1 ingredient tonic water, so cool

And as you whack it's stuffing out, yell,


dammit, dammit, dammit!

ice pack wrap & slice cookies


i was browsing my usaul blogs i like to read and found two great ideals one is this very neat ice pack wrap you can make with a siple tea towel all you do is sew a pocket on it and then sew velcro on the sides and pop a ice pack in the pocket and wrap it around your leg and this way you can walk around if you need to i think you could make a smaller version for the kids if you wanted to maybe i just might try making a smaller one for my friend instructions are found on this lovely ladies site



http://finnyknits.blogspot.com/2009/06/icy-knees-tutorial.html




also today found this great recipe for slice and bake cookies i just hate making drop cookies i can never judge how much to put on the spoon ....LOL i just love sliced cookies especially good if you are making alot of cookies like for the kids school bake sale and you can make so may variousions of the cookies , so go to this great blog for the recipe and instructions
