Here is the recipe I use. Super easy. It's kind of like edible playdough. My kids love playing with the scraps...
OOH! Thanks!!! I can't wait to try this (but not eat it, since I'm doing WW

)!
I was going to say how hard it must have been to make this until I saw that it was styrafoam- CHEATER!!!

No, it's still great! All of your cakes are beautiful!
I didn't realize she was affected! I live in the same general area as tnmom, but we're about 30 minutes apart. Glad to know she's safe!
There was damage in my area (my best friend's church was completely destroyed), but no deaths in my immediate vicinity. I'm out of town this week, so I was spared even the scare.
I'm glad you weren't directly affected by the tornadoes. So sad about your friend's church.
And you can't see him, but Scrappy is right on my feet (I cropped him out!).
I have that red fabric!! I just got it at JoAnn for $1/yard a couple of weeks ago. I thought it was really cute! Anyway, you look great in this shirt! I wish I could wear something like that. Are you doing the JoJo and that's why you REALLY cropped out your legs?
I have been looking at you guys post for the past couple days and was inspired to start learning how to sew. I had bought an old singer at a yard sale last year. After fooling with it for about an hour, I was able to sew one line. Then it broke. So can you recommend a good machine for a beginer. Also how did you learn to sew. Was it trial and error, did you have someone teach you, is there a website or book to read?
thanks for all your help

Lynn!! Are you sure the machine is broken? Have you tried re-threading it and re-threading the bobbin and everything? What exactly happened to it? I have a Brother CS6000 and I LOVE it!!! Overstock.com has the best prices on this particular machine. It's $139, plus $2.95 shipping on there. If you use this link to get to the website, you get $5 off a $100 purchase (total $137.94). Here's a link:

Just search for "Brother CS 6000"
ALL DAY kindergarten? JEALOUS! Seli, my 12 year old, went all day (when we lived in FL) and it was AWESOME! She did amazingly well and has totally benefitted ever since! None of my other kids were able to go all day...It'll be good for Camden AND for you!!!
All day kindergarten won't be a good thing for my poor sister!!

She's going to be a basketcase.
I LOVE all of your new outfits. Just look at that beautiful little Saylor!! She's such a little doll!

That is SOOOOOO WRONG!!!!!! I literally shuddered when I read that!!!
It's okay, just take a deep breath, no one will touch the styrafoam, it's okay.
Can I join the weight watchers group in about a year and a half? I've got to finish cooking up this baby and I breast feed for a year during which I lose all of my weight initially and then it comes to a screeching halt.

I thought breast feeding was supposed to help you lose weight but it doesn't work for me. Thank God I don't put on a lot of weight during pregnancy since I'm carrying some extra cushioning around to start off with!
If you lose all of your weight while breast feeding, I'd say that it DOES help you to lose weight! I didn't gain much at all when pregnant with Tessa (25lbs total), but I gained 40lbs with Sawyer, and then some more after I had him with all the stress I was going through with my health. Anyway, I tend to eat like a pig while I'm breastfeeding and not gain weight. As soon as I stopped nursing Sawyer (about 2 months ago), I started putting on weight (same thing happened with Tessa). Wow, that was a long, pointless reply, huh?
Angela
Camelotcats, Thank you for the fabric! It came yesterday!
Can't wait to use it!
Funny story, DW saw the package and said, "What.... more fabric?"
I told her that is what I used to tell her!
She was going over the budget, and wanted to know how much this one costs us. I told her a VERY nice lady on the DISboards purchased it and shared her great find with a lot of people, for FREE! She just shook her head!

I told her the NICEST people are on the DIS!
These people are FANTASTIC, aren't they?!!!
Today is the big dance and Megan woke up with a cold. I knew she was a little off yesterday. Knowing her, she will fight through it, she is not a big wimp like me. She is very excited and already drew a picture of her and her dad at the dance. I will post pictures tonight!
Oh, I hope she feels good enough to go to the dance!! I can't wait to see pictures!
