My experiences as a Peace Corps volunteer in Honduras. So after a couple of weeks of grueling, selfless, and thankless work for the Honduran people I’ve finally carved out some time to write a blog post. In reality, it’s just really tough to sit down and write these things but I promise I’ll keep them coming. Alright, where do I start? Seriously though, it was a cool feeling to say the oath and join the ranks of thousands of volunteers that have come before me, especially since this is the 50. Brayton, e...

Modern mind, vintage heart. Refinished dresser for the kid’s room. October 7, 2011 at 9:30 pm. For more details on this project, visit http:/ www.ourseoulmate.wordpress.com. PS – I know I’ve been gone forever but there will be more posts soon! I’m working on a crocheted blanket, learning to cross stitch, and a quilt to come soon. The crafting bug is back! I’m planning on painting our nursery gray, so I wanted a few pops of yellow. And what more of a pop can you ask for than a yellow dresser? You are comm...

Monster cookie recipe | Modern mind, vintage heart
https://mallorymurray.wordpress.com/2011/12/13/monster-cookie-recipe
Modern mind, vintage heart. December 13, 2011 at 10:59 pm. We made a monstrous batch of monster cookies the other day. As we went, I kept tweaking the cookies with each new pan. At the end, I had the absolutely perfect monster cookie recipe (in my opinion). The majority of monster cookie recipes you find online include no flour. Which is great if you can’t do gluten – but it doesn’t make as perfect of a cookie as it could. 1 3/4 cup brown sugar. 1/2 cup white sugar. 1 tsp vanilla extract. Fill in your de...

Long time gone | Modern mind, vintage heart
https://mallorymurray.wordpress.com/2011/07/26/long-time-gone
Modern mind, vintage heart. July 26, 2011 at 9:43 am. I apologize it’s been such a long delay. There’s been a lot going on in our lives that’s distracted me from the main focus of this blog – cooking, sewing and crafts. (The fact that Rufus chewed through the power cord on my sewing machine notwithstanding … good thing he’s cute). The big news in our life is we have started the process of adopting from Korea! Thank you all for your ongoing support and understanding about the delays in posts.🙂. Social me...

My experiences as a Peace Corps volunteer in Honduras. So before everyone thinks that I’m just down here on an extended vacation for two years [1]. Are cooperatives where any group of people can organize, pool their money together, and make loans to people within the. FAO (thanks to the European Union) loans these. Fertilizer, seeds, and other materials based on the number of people within the cooperative. Instead of paying back FAO, the members pay only a percentage (usually 50%) that is deposited i...

Super easy (probably inauthentic) Korean food | Modern mind, vintage heart
https://mallorymurray.wordpress.com/2011/11/15/super-easy-probably-inauthentic-korean-food
Modern mind, vintage heart. Super easy (probably inauthentic) Korean food. November 15, 2011 at 6:46 am. To our cooking arsenal we’ve recently added a rice cooker and it’s revolutionary! Yum I’ve heard stories from other adoptive parents that their children wouldn’t eat anything but rice once they arrived home. So we figured we’d better learn how to make good rice before Henry arrives home – something tells me our Minute Rice microwave version just wouldn’t cut it.🙂. 15-2 pounds of sirloin steak. 2-3 cu...

Modern mind, vintage heart. I’m loving playing with Illustrator. Here are some more wall art pieces I’ve worked on – 3 more to go to replace all of the photos I have in mind.🙂. April 21, 2011 at 6:39 pm. New artwork for the walls. So the embroidery attempt is still a work in progress. Yay, Illustrator! April 20, 2011 at 9:00 pm. Front porch Fridays …. errr, Monday. So a long time ago I promised you a new theme called Front Porch Fridays. Forgive the quality, ogle the architectural details …. 8220;Well, ...

Taquitos | Modern mind, vintage heart
https://mallorymurray.wordpress.com/2011/10/18/taquitos
Modern mind, vintage heart. October 18, 2011 at 9:45 pm. We recently acquired a Sam’s Club membership (thanks Kim! Which has been a delight for the cheap Icees, bulk designer clothes and bargain vacuums. What’s not so delightful? Every time we go to Sam’s Club, my husband begs me to buy the huge, bulk sized nasty frozen taquitos. Bleck. I love Mexican food, but frozen food? Not so much. Frozen Mexican food? From the amazing blog, ourbestbites.com. Thanks for the great recipe! 1 can black beans, drained.
