Small Steps Daily: April 2012
http://smallstepsdaily.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
At home, at work, and at life . . . Sunday, April 15, 2012. We went to a Raleigh Ringers concert in Atlanta earlier this year. Katie is trying to lift one of the aluminum bells after the concert - it's heavier than we thought at 18 pounds! Here's a quick video of three songs and her recital piece - it's under two minutes. She positively LOVED The Lion Kin. So, Katie's learning how to play the piano, and I'm learning how to make iMovies now. We're taking small steps together! Saturday, April 7, 2012.

Small Steps Daily: February 2012
http://smallstepsdaily.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
At home, at work, and at life . . . Sunday, February 26, 2012. Chowing Down on Chick Peas. I have one thing to say: Chick peas ROCK. Chick peas were really something I don't believe I've ever eaten before, but I discovered them through a friend of mine last year. She was actually getting my husband to eat hummus ( okay, it was really spicy hummus and it was slathered on top of Wheat Thins. Anyway, I figured chick peas must be pretty magical if my husband was eating them . . . and they were! Growing up in...

At home, at work, and at life . . . Friday, April 6, 2012. Necklace Holder - too cute! I was browsing around Target yesterday looking for something to hold all of my makeup now that I'm rediscovering it - you know with my Makeup Renaissance. And all. :) Anyway, I happened up on the most adorable necklace holders. I wouldn't pay the price for them ( I want to say they were $20.00 - I can't tell exactly from the picture. But they were too cute not to take a picture of them. Cindy F. Adkins. Beating the Pol...

Small Steps Daily: Stash to Study
http://smallstepsdaily.blogspot.com/2012/03/stash-to-study.html
At home, at work, and at life . . . Saturday, March 10, 2012. Forget the omnipresent junk drawer in the kitchen - I had an entire bonus room full of junk. Boxes upon boxes of old binders, knick knacks, old picture frames and lamps, outdated comforter sets, broken chairs, my college typewriter, and window treatments I bought but never used found a home in that unused space. You name it, I stashed it. It took years to accumulate that much stuff! I make pack rats feel good about themselves. I can relate to ...

Small Steps Daily: June 2011
http://smallstepsdaily.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
At home, at work, and at life . . . Wednesday, June 29, 2011. So, sometimes taking small steps in doing everything is to make a dish that looks like it took hours to make when in reality it took very little effort on your part. Enter THE Chocolate Trifle below:. I should so be getting paid for product placement! Every time I make this deliciously decadent dessert, it is nothing short of a crowd pleaser. I guess it may have something to do with the Kahlua! 1 big tub of Cool Whip. Desserts with heath bars.

At home, at work, and at life . . . Thursday, June 28, 2012. Concrete Patio Floor Facelift How to Project - from Drab to Dramatic! That's the only word I used to use when I thought about the concrete patio flooring on our front and back porches. Before picture - as if you couldn't tell. After "googling" ( I just love how that name has become a verb. Here's a video I posted about it on YouTube:. After picture - dramatic indeed! June 19, 2014 at 2:46 AM. June 24, 2014 at 5:40 PM.

Small Steps Daily: Makeup Haul
http://smallstepsdaily.blogspot.com/2012/02/make-up-haul.html
At home, at work, and at life . . . Tuesday, February 21, 2012. Yeah, I know, I know. Why on earth is this in a blog entitled Small Steps Daily. Well, small steps are taken every day in pretty much everything we do. This time I took a small step in personal beauty care. However, my kids are older now, and I'm in my mid-forties looking for a Vitamin B-12 shot, if you will. I became curious about Revlon's newer PhotoReady line of foundation. Flat eye shadow brush. Revlon PhotoReady eye primer and brightener.

I mean, let's face it, I love pasta, meat, and I have a insatiable sweet tooth! Normally, when we would have pasta and shrimp for dinner, we would also add a fattening Alfredo sauce and buttered garlic bread to the menu. Ooooooh, let's count the calories!

Small Steps Daily: Brussels Sprouts with Bacon and Cranberries
http://smallstepsdaily.blogspot.com/2012/04/brussels-sprouts-with-bacon-and.html
At home, at work, and at life . . . Friday, April 6, 2012. Brussels Sprouts with Bacon and Cranberries. I admit it. I didn't like Brussels sprouts since early childhood based on the fact that most of my friends didn't like them. This deep dislike of Brussels sprouts lasted for about 39 years until I finally decided to try one at lunch one day when a coworker brought steamed Brussels sprouts to work one day. I Liked. Them. So enter Rachael Ray and her book Rachael Ray 365: No Repeats. Start the bacon̵...

At home, at work, and at life . . . Sunday, July 3, 2011. Journey Down a Spiritual Path. I am so ashamed! I even listed my house! What I forgot to mention. However, was my spirituality. How could I overlook it! Spirituality is definitely an area of improvement for me. Although I grew up going to church weekly, I never felt I connected with the Southern Baptist beliefs. As a result, I grew away from the church and felt like I was "losing my religion." - nod to REM. Eventually, we discovered a wonderful, q...
