Baby Explosion Boxness

Well, I finally finished the gift for my sister to take to her friend's baby shower. I am quite happy with it. AND oh my gosh!!! I forgot to tell y'all the great news! I finally got my Gypsy!!! WOOHOO! I bought it at a steal of $187 (Cdn) at Walmart Thursday night. It has taken me the past few days to figure it out and get a good feel for it but I LOVE it!! I actually used it for the baby explosion box I made. Here are some photos for y'all to enjoy. :) I must go make a salad and a dessert of some sort for tomorrow's pot luck after church. Y'all have a great evening and a great rest of your weekend. 

I put tiny gifts of baby shampoo,
baby body wash, and baby lotion
along with a baby powder and baby
teether toothbrush.
Each flap hid something. This
one hid a baby bottle magnet
which I made using the Gyspy
Wanderings cartridge on my
Gypsy.
The finished product.


A baby bow.

    Thanks for stopping by my blog. I love this idea of using the actual present inside the box. I have only seen people using paper. Great job!

Oh my goodness!!!! It is SO good to be 'back'! The past 6 weeks have been Hell!!! Ironically, the day of my last post, I got a prescription for an antibiotic to cure an infection I had in my right pointer finger. I have eczema and it is very sensitive to weather. During our hottest and driest week, my eczema became painfully dry and cracked which let in normal bacteria that is found on our hands. Unfortunately, I also have asthma and severe seasonal allergies. (Seasonal allergies were the worst this summer too!) So on top of all the 'fighting' my poor body was doing, the infection was too much and it overran my system. To make a long, and extremely painful, story short the infection overtook both my hands rendering them useless for the past 6 weeks. I am on my 6th or 7th course of antibiotics. After being in and out of the ER on IV antibiotics for a week and a half, and the infection only getting worse, the doctor finally admitted me to the hospital for 4 days last week...

Hello, everyone!! How are all of you doing today? I am doing absolutely FANTABULOUS!!! It feels so good to be back into the normal swing of things again! How I missed by blog, my friends, and my crafting! I also missed everything else-laundry, cooking, even diaper changes! It's funny how much you learn to appreciate when you are unable to do any of it. I am sure I will get over it soon, but for now I have a delicious post for you. After 6 weeks of being completely useless, I was able to make my family supper again!!! I love to cook and experiment, to some degree, with my cooking. One thing I dreamed up when I was in the hospital was a delicious Mexican/Italian combination. I LOVE Italian food and once in a while I like to have some Mexican. I had a craving for both so I thought I'd kill two birds with one stone. When I was in the hospital, people from our church brought my hubby and kidlets tons of food. We got a LOT of chicken! LoL So I was thinking of two main recipes to have...
