Recycling Fun!
I decided to make use of some of the things I was recycling! Fun, right?
Ice cube trays - I didn’t have any trays for ice cubes, so why not use some pudding cups? They work perfectly.
Change holder - I needed something to hold my change, so I rinsed out a used tuna can. How chic? you could even color it with sharpies for an added flair.
Coupon cubbie - I’m kind of like a grandma, and so I clip coupons. Hey, when you have to buy groceries, it adds up! I cut down an instant potato box and stuck it to the fridge with magnets.
Fun Fact
John McCain is 23 years older than the state of Alaska.

Against my better judgement, I finally broke down and read Twilight this past week.
In case you haven’t heard, the Twilight saga is the next best thing. It’s basically just an Ann Rice/Buffy the Vampire Slayer kind of thing. I felt like I was a little over Vampire Romance, but for some reason, I couldn’t put this thing down. I read the 500 or so pages in a little over 6 hours.
“As Shakespeare knew, love burns high when thwarted by obstacles. In Twilight, an exquisite fantasy by Stephenie Meyer, readers discover a pair of lovers who are supremely star-crossed. Bella adores beautiful Edward, and he returns her love. But Edward is having a hard time controlling the blood lust she arouses in him, because–he’s a vampire. At any moment, the intensity of their passion could drive him to kill her, and he agonizes over the danger. But, Bella would rather be dead than part from Edward, so she risks her life to stay near him, and the novel burns with the erotic tension of their dangerous and necessarily chaste relationship.”
It’s so odd, because nothing even really happens. I’ve never been more bored, yet more entertained in my life. It’s unsettling.
Anyway, if you’re looking for something to beat the summer heat that isn’t heavy reading, check out the first book. Be aware that it’s a little YA (young adult).
Oh, by the by, they’re already making a movie slated to open in December, starring Cedric Diggory:

This time on Craft Corner, Steve renovates a lamp. I spraypainted it white and decopaged the shade with lime tissue paper. The results:
