We make something from Pinterest and share our results with you. Check us out every weekday to see how we did!
When Deb, Sherri and I were were growing up, we would go on family water skiing vacations to Lake Powell every summer. We had several other families that joined us each year. There was always a boat, jet ski or inner tub available at all times. We ... Read more
Okay, so…it was me. It was totally me. But at the time I just didn’t want to admit it, because I really wanted them to like me. My in-laws. At our first family reunion after getting married I still felt new to the family, and was wanting to make a good impression. And I didn’t mean to […]
It’s almost time to go back to school, this year eMeals is making it so much easier. Is it just me or does summer get shorter every year? In just two short weeks my kids are back in school, our laid back summer schedule will go, and the routine of school will be back in full […]
We just bought a new grill. Our old one was so rusty I didn’t want to grill on it. So when we rented a lake house for a week, and the house had a nice grill, I was pretty excited to cook on it. We pretty much grilled everything we ate for dinner. When we got […]
Do your kids have an imaginary friend? I have three kids and two of my children did not have any imaginary friends while growing up. And then came my third child. She had plenty of imaginary friends and one of her friends was called “Pony”. She also made up imaginary friends for her siblings because, […]
Want to know how to get picky eaters to chow down healthy vegetables? You could try psychology. I hear it takes 25 introductions to new foods before kids will take to it. You could try making a game of it. We used to call broccoli “trees” and cauliflower “clouds”. My daughter loved french fries when […]
I love food. All kinds of food. One of my favorite kinds of food, is down home, southern cooking. Right now, right this very minute, I am sitting on a screened in porch over looking a beautiful lake in Southern VA. And I just saw a hummingbird flit by. It is the perfect way to […]
Mrs. Travers had a bone to pick with me. Mom and Dad weren’t so happy either. But a lot of it was Tracy’s (the middle sister’s) fault for teaching me “the trick”. Only I can’t really, solidly put full blame on her for teaching me, because I learned it from her by eavesdropping. That is […]
I recently shared this recipe for Mediterranean Skillet Chicken that has become a staple weeknight meal in our household at My Kitchen Escapades. Right now I am a little obsessed with the Mediterranean. Can you tell by the beautiful colors and flavors here in the photo? Artichokes, olives, tomato, garlic, basil, and feta combine to make […]

Hello Made From Pinterest fans. It’s Jen here from Bakerette and boy do I have a fantastic recipe to share with you today. Peaches are in season and I’m totally obsessed with them. In the height of my fruit obsession, I made us a snack! I have eaten more peaches than I thought was possible […]
When it comes to raising kids, I am one of the luckiest gals around. One of the reasons I am so lucky is that I am the baby of the family, which means, I have the good fortune to benefit from Debbie (the Oldest) and Tracy’s (the Middle Child) parenting experience. Here is one of […]
I don’t know about you but red, white and blue are quickly popping up all around our house as I bring out our patriotic decorations. With the 4th of July fast approaching (can you believe THAT?!) we have a fun and easy craft to bring some American color into your home and your kids can […]
This 4th of July Bandanna Tablecloth took me a year to finish. Not because it was hard to do. No, it is easy to make, which is part of its charm. It took a year to make because not all bandannas are made the same. They may be created by the same company, all marked as […]

DIY Wool Dryer balls? What are they and why would I want to make some? Those were my thoughts when I found this pin from Holly Gray at Caleigh’s Corner. My second thought was, loving the idea of not having to purchase dryer sheets, even better, I like the idea of not finding used dryer sheets on […]
Today I am going to get real. Like in real pictures of my real master bathroom. And my real master bathroom is real small. But it has a real large mirror. That means that whenever I take a shower, the whole bathroom fogs up and my hubby can’t see in the mirror to shave. So […]
One of our favorite things about Pinterest is finding tips and tricks that make life easier. Did you know you can clean your grill grates, stove burners and oven with practically no scrubbing? How about streak free outdoor window cleaning? Got ants, mold, stains, smells that you want to get rid of? So did we!!! […]
Today, I am going to introduce you to a great, new product. Vinegar. Oh, but not just regular vinegar. Have you ever heard of Cleaning Vinegar? Neither had I until I pinned this pin from Cupcakes and Crinoline. Cleaning Vinegar has 6% acidity instead of the 5% acidity found in regular vinegar. And guess what? […]

Happy Summer to all my favorite Made From Pinterest readers! This is Carole from My Kitchen Escapades and I am so excited to be back visiting again this month to share another great recipe with you. You see this cutie patootie? This is my baby girl who is 4 years old and she has the […]
One dozen eggs. That is how many eggs my kids went through one Mother’s Day when they were trying to make me Belgian Waffles. My favorite recipe for Belgian Waffles calls for egg whites whipped to peaks and folded into the batter. First my kids could not figure out how to separate the eggs. Then […]
Has the good weather reached your part of the world yet? We are just starting to get warmer temperatures and already I am seeing more people outside.
