I was introduced to Shelf Reliance with their shelving systems (that is the organizational side of me) and later learned about their food that has an incredibly long shelf life and tastes GREAT (the practical side of me)!  As a mom to two little girls, I am always looking for ways to cut down time in the kitchen, so we can be doing other things together.  Shelf Reliance THRIVE food line is just that.  The THRIVE food line consists of the same foods you would purchase at the market—fruits, veggies, meats, beans, grains, dairy, and the basics—only with THRIVE you don’t have to dash to the store every time you run out of essential ingredients such as eggs or milk.  Contact me today to find out how we can help you organize your pantry or get your “home store” started today!

After my daughter was born, I quickly became frustrated looking for hair accessories.  I just couldn’t find what I wanted in local shops!  After a few failed attempts and encouragement from great friends and a supportive husband Posies and Petals was born!  I truly enjoy working with clients to create something special that fits their needs.

I picked up my first camera when I was in elementary school.  My parents bought me a 110 which was glued to my side throughout my childhood. I started working for a portrait studio in Anchorage, Alaska at 19.  I took family portraits, High School Senior, children, & Wedding portraits.  At 25, I became owner of the studio where I continued taking studio portraits.  I also felt a strong desire to venture “outside” of the studio, and I quickly developed a love for landscape photography.  Alaska is such an amazingly beautiful state and I knew I had to take advantage of that…..thus Karla DeCamp Photography was born.

In 2008 my family moved to Maple Valley, Washington where I’ve continued my passion.  I still take a drive a few times a week, to capture the gorgeous land that I live in.  I continue to specialize in High School Senior Portraits, Family Photographs, and Weddings.

Hi, I’m Sundi the “Cheap Chickadee!”  My blog is all about the CHEAP, the EASY and the AWESOME!  You will not find overwhelming projects, lavish birthday parties, or total home construction (sorry)!  What you will find is beautiful and uber creative projects you CAN and WILL want to do… mixed in with a bit of my zany quirkiness!

Visit me:  Blog

I wanted to share a few fun projects I’ve finished the last few weeks!  I wanted to add some St. Patrick’s Day decor to my rotation this year.  In the past, I’ve just gone from Valentine’s to Spring Decor.  Initially I struggled, cause St. Patty’s decor can be a bit cheesy.  I came up with some fun stuff though and I think it turned out simple and fun!

The first thing I decided was that I wanted to do a canvas project.  I’ve had some canvases in my closet for a while that needed to be used and I’ve been wanting to try a little painting project.  My friend, Jessica, came over from across the street and we just jumped into the project, with very little direction.  We learned a lot of things… figured out tons of easier ways (haha).. but all and all they still turned out pretty fun.  The shamrocks I bought in a pack at Michaels and then I just hot glued them on!  I printed the Lucky Printable from Mom on Time Out!  It’s probably my favorite St. Patrick’s Day printable I’ve seen this year!

Then, I originally thought I was going to make a split pea wreath after I saw a pin from That Red Headed Step Child, but then I realized I needed something for on top of my candle sticks.  I had an extra 8″ Styrofoam ball in closet, so I decided to use it to make Split Pea Balls!  I used hot glue to attach the split peas. It was easy and didn’t take all that long!  I love how they turned out too!  They are easily going to be something I can pull out several times throughout the year for several seasons/holidays!  For the 2nd ball, I knew I wanted it a little smaller.  So, I actually ended up using tin foil to make my own ball.  It worked really good and I’m super excited about this new discovery.  Now I can customize whatever size ball I want, whenever!

I also had a few boards in my garage, so I spray painted one using Krylon’s Ivy Leaf Spray Paint and applied  a simple vinyl, that reads “Lucky Us” to it!

For my fireplace mantel, I again, kept it pretty simple.  I printed our St. Patrick’s Day Bunting and then I spray painted some beans to arrange them in a vase.  I also swapped around some vases, to bring the green vase to the mantel!

All I did in the kitchen was put up this cute board that I purchased from Lori at You’ve Been Framed!  I loved the finish she put on the wood!

Then of course on the kitchen table, I turned to Eighteen 25!  They always have adorable Subway Prints!

Okay so maybe I’m not exactly a Disneyland insider, because I’ve never worked there.  But, when it comes to being a guest – I definitely am an insider! My qualifications are:

• I grew up 15 minutes from the 57 freeway from Disneyland. My Mom use to take us at the end of summer each year on the day before school started.
• In High School I had an annual pass, a drivers license, and no job – nuff said :)
• Since having kids our family had annual passes for 2 of those 8 years and have taken at least 10 trips each of those years.
• On the years we don’t have passes we go at least once at Christmastime.
• While caring for my Mom I took Davis and Beckham every single weekday for about a month. Each day we had “Mommy only” time at Disneyland from 3-6.

It’s safe to say that I have been to Disneyland well over 100 times. I feel so sad when I see people spending so much money on trip and wasting half of their day just because they lacked information! I always check out the Disneyland “tips” I see on Pinterest and I always feel let down. Really? They never seem to have anything real or practical that you can actually apply to your day, just platitudes.

One day while mopping my floor I thought I should write down our families best tips since I see a lot of people planning trips coming up for Spring Break. I just started typing them out as I thought of them all throughout the day and came up with my top 12. As I was writing them I found there was so much more I wanted to include about individual rides. So, over the next 5 Wednesdays, I will be going through Disneyland, land by land, and telling you what you need to know – ride by ride. Does the line move fast? Is there a fast pass? The best time to ride?

I also thought, why not let you readers ask questions and I’ll answer them each week. Do you have a question for planning your trip? Write to me at contactotbm@gmail.com. I’ve asked Lori from Mouse Encounters to help me answer your questions, so between the two of us we should be able to answer all of your questions!

Ready for my top 12 tips? Here they are! You can download them to print if you would like or you can just keep reading.

12 Tips for Making the Most of your day at Disneyland!

1. Get there early! If the park opens at 9:00, be pulling in no later than 8:15! It takes time to park, ride the tram, and get through the front gates. They open Main Street before the park opens and they block the crowd off at the end of Main Street. It’s a great time to explore Main Street while not using ride time. You can take pictures, browse the shops, and I have even seen some characters out signing autographs before the park officially opens. One of us usually saves our place near the front of the crowd while the other takes the kids potty 10 minutes before it opens. There is nothing worse than having to take a potty break 20 minutes into your first line! When they open the park you are already in the middle of Disneyland ready to roll!

2. Pick a priority ride with no fast past to go on first! For our family it’s always Peter Pan and Casey Junior if we are going to Disneyland (vs. California Adventures). Peter Pan always has a huge line and it doesn’t move fast! It is always our first ride to hit, unless it is a Magic Morning (guests staying at Disney hotels get to enter the park early) and then the line is already long and we go straight to Casey Jr. If you have the chance to do the Magic Mornings, do Peter Pan first! If we are going to California Adventures we hit Toy Story Mania first.

3. Fast pass! You can have 1 fast pass at a time. (With the exception of World of Color in California Adventures. If you want to see World of Color you have to get a pass. You get them at the Grizzly River Run fast pass machines. After the World of Color fast passes are distributed the fast pass machines are converted back to Grizzly River Run.) Fast passes allow you to use a shortcut in the line for that specific ride. Not all rides have fast passes, but most major rides do. To get a fast pass you scan your ticket outside of the ride and it gives you a pass with a time listed on it. That time is when your fast pass is valid for that ride. They only give so many out for each hour, so as the day goes on the time to return gets later depending on how many people are fast passing that ride. Not everyone has to be there to get a fast pass. One of us will go get a fast pass with all our tickets while the other waits in line with our kids. What a lot of people don’t know is that as soon as your fast pass is valid you can get a new one. For example if your fast pass is good from 12:20-1:20 you can get a new fast pass at 12:21. Plan ahead and figure out which rides are most important for you and fast pass those. Space Mountain is a must with a fast pass! Other good rides to fast pass are Star Tours, Indian Jones, and Splash Mountain.  Those passes really put you ahead of the line. Thunder Mountain and Autopia’s lines move pretty fast, so fast passes are good, but not as necessary.

4. Wait for attractions right after the first showing! If you want to see Fantasmic, show up when the first show is ending. As people move out you can move in and get a perfect seat! On really busy days this can be a good idea for the Jedi Training Academy too.

5. Incorporate food into waiting – Eat lunch or dinner while waiting for the Parade or Fantasmic. You can bring a tray from any restaurant with you and set it on any trash can in the park and they will return it to the correct restaurant for you! One of us usually waits in a good spot while the other gets the food and then we have a picnic! The best place in my opinion to sit for the parade is the little strip that runs between the Matterhorn and the Castle. What I love about this area is that you have front row seats and no one can stand behind you, so when the parade comes by they look right at you and you get the full show without worrying too much about other people. Be ready to defend your spot though! People will keep trying to squeeze in! This spot is also great because some lines in Fantasyland are closed during the parade and when the parade gets past you, you can jump right into line and not have to wait!

6. Don’t wear yourself out! Try to plan ahead, so you don’t jump all over the park, rather work your way thought the park. Finish one section of the park and then use the train to get to the other side of the park and start on that side!  The train and monorail are different! The train is an actual steam engine train that has 4 stations – Main Street, New Orleans Square (near the Haunted Mansion), Toontown Depot (next to Small World), and Tomorrowland Station (behind Autopia). It’s nice to sit and its interesting to see parts of the park that you can only see on the train. You can get on and off at any of the 4 stations. Most days the line in minimal and trains come every 5 minutes. We have gone between California Adventures and Disneyland on the same day but it wastes a huge amount of time. If you are going for multiple days, plan a day in Disneyland and then another day in California Adventures. You will be able to see more and you won’t be so worn out! Even with doing these tricks I guarantee you will walk more than you have a long time! This is the day to not go for the cute shoes! Wear your running shoes. They may not look the best but you wont be miserable by 3:00 that afternoon either!

7. Child swap! If you have kids that are too short for certain rides you can take turns without all the waiting. How it works – the whole family has to go to the line entrance. Find a Disney worker and ask them for a child swap pass. One parent and any kids that are tall enough to ride then wait in line normally, while the other parent stays out of line with the children that are too short to ride. The second parent then can use the child swap pass anytime that day to go through the exit or the fast pass line (depends on the ride) and not have to wait in the whole line. It is good for two people, so you can take another child back with you. For example, our 8 year old can ride the ride with me (we stand in the line normally) and then when my husband goes to ride, the pass will get him and our 8 year old back on. We find this really handy when we can’t get a fast pass. If you have fast passes, it’s pretty much the same thing since both parents can use the fast pass line. But if you can’t get a fast pass and are going to wait in the whole line – take advantage of this for sure!

8. Use the single rider line. Many rides have a single rider line – Splash Mountain, Indiana Jones Adventure, Grizzly River Run, Soaring’ Over California, California Screamin’, & Goofy’s Sky School. Usually there is a sign directing you, or you enter through the exit. When a single space opens up they put you into that spot. This means you can take turns if the line is so long that you don’t want to wait. You just won’t get to sit together, but it’s worth it on a busy day!

9. Pack light! They have lockers, but we just pack light, so we don’t waste time going to and from lockers. Here is our list of essentials that we pack:

• Easy snacks – fruit snacks, granola bars, and our kids favorite Dum-Dum-Pops ! Perfect for keeping kids in line happy without too much mess! We pack our favorite Disney trail mix too (http://lisascooking.blogspot.com/2008/07/disney-trail-mix.html) Food is expensive, so we usually eat a HUGE breakfast and get full before we get there. We snack until the afternoon when we have a big lunch at one of the Disney restaurants, and then we snack for the rest of the day. A churro makes a great dinner   Our favorite restaurants – The Hungry Bear Restaurant is our all-time favorite. It’s tucked away over in Critter Country by Splash Mountain. There is tons of shade and it is right on the Rivers of America. It’s very relaxing and picturesque, plus we like the food. Our second choice is the Rancho del Zocalo Restaurante in Frontierland. Great food and great environment! This is usually the place we hit if we are picnicking it while waiting for the parade.

• We freeze two or three water bottles and let them melt. As the day goes on we just keep filling the melted space up at water fountains. This way we have cold water all day without too much weight to carry and without spending tons of money on water. Stay hydrated! You will feel better and have more energy.

• A deck of cards for times when you are waiting for parades or shows. Its light and will keep you busy and make the waiting time go faster! Don’t forget eye spy can be a great ride waiting game! We also use the maps to play eye spy on.

• A cheap tube of glow sticks. Trust me you will thank me for this one! When it gets dark Disneyland has such fun light up toys for so much $$$. We pack our own tube and our kids are happy! We usually find them at the craft store in the dollar section, but you can buy lots of them online.

• Sunglasses, sunscreen, and chapstick!

• Headache medicine. Heat, dehydration, walking all day, the motion of the rides – it’s a headache waiting to happen! Not only do I pack it, I usually take 2 Excedrin on the way to prevent a headache. My hubby takes a non-drowsy motion sickness pills too, so he can enjoy the rides more.

• If you are taking a stroller pack it light! Our favorite is an umbrella stroller with a basket. Don’t underestimate the power of piggybacks while in the park for little ones.

• Camera!

• Autograph book and Pen. There are some great tutorials out there on how to make your own!

10. Save souvenirs for the end of the day! There is nothing worse than having to haul around toys that kids are sick of carrying. To keep our spending in check we allow our kids 1 souvenir. They look all day long and then at the end of the day we purchase it as we are leaving at the Emporium. The Emporium is a giant Disney store located at the end of Main Street.  It has most of the items that are available all over the park, but you buy them on your way out and you only have to carry it to the car! If you want a specialty item ask the store clerk if the Emporium carries it, so you know ahead of time.

11. Don’t let anything spoil your day! You have planned this trip and spent so much thought on picking the perfect date only to show up and see 50 middle school busses full of kids Bummer. This has happened to me and I let it ruin my day. Don’t – you will regret it! You may not get on every ride, but you can still have fun! Fun things to do on really packed days – Ride the Double Decker bus around Main Street, Mark Twain Ferry Boat, Play tag on Pirates Island or play Hide and Go seek in Toon Town (play on teams so kids are not unsupervised), Ride the train around the whole park, Ride the monorail and wait to sit in the very front, get great seats for parades or shows, look for hidden Mickey’s, play in the water in Bugs Life Land, Tarzans Tree House, King Arthur’s Carousel, and the Tiki Room. Whatever you do – have fun! Let the stress go and just roll with the day!

12.  Have fun! I cannot tell you how many parents I have seen yelling at their kids and being grumpy! What a waste of money! Don’t forget you are taking this vacation for your family and to have fun! Most of us go to Disneyland for our kids. Don’t forget about them! Make their day special and go with their flow and do what’s important to them. We have a rule in our house – you have to try every ride one time. If they don’t like it, then they don’t have to do it again. Make sure you make the day fun! I love being the coolest Mom at Disneyland! We tell jokes and my kids for one day have my undivided attention. I play like I’m a kid again and it does so much for my relationship with my kids. Don’t forget why you wanted to take the trip!

Come back next week as we break down Fantasyland – ride by ride!

Sunday was my hubs b-day! Growing up my Mom had a birthday banner she put up for each of our birthdays. It wasn’t fancy, just a paper one she had bought.  But, it brings back such a flood of good feelings and memories.

I love the birthday buntings out there, but I wanted something I could change up depending on where we were putting it. I wanted to be able to put it across our Entertainment Center or across our Nook. I came up with the idea to make a bunting that buttons together and then can be unbuttoned to change the length or pattern.

It really wasn’t that hard! I think it took more time to explain it in this post, then actually doing it! I love that we will be able to use it for different occasions…having it all red for Valentine’s or green for St Patty’s Day. What made this super easy was that I bought the fabric pre-cut in squares. I found the fabric at a My Lazy Daisy trunk show my neighbor had. They had the cutest square fabrics that were perfect for what I had in mind. I bought their retro pack from Kay McArthur and was ready to roll!

First, I folded each of the squares in half, as a triangle, and ironed them. I wanted to use 1 inch grosgrain ribbon to attach the flags together, but it frays, so I used Fray Check a lot during this process! I cut my ribbon into strips long enough to leave about a 1 inch overlap on each side and then I fray checked the edges.

I found all sorts of places to hang it while it dried

Then I laid the ribbon inside of my fabric and pinned it.

I sewed two lines, because I like the way that looks. The first one I lined up right with the foot petal.

The second one I lined up with the third line on my machine.

Next, I needed button holes, but my machine doesn’t have a buttonhole attachment.  Thankfully, Pam’s machine does! It was a lot easier than I thought it would be. It only took about 20 minutes to make all of my button holes.

I trimmed the strings and then fray checked all around the buttonhole before I cut the hole open.

Next, I carefully cut the hole open, sewed my buttons on, and then trimmed the ribbon to the right length and fray checked the edge again. Just to be safe I also fray checked the back of where I sewed my button on.

I let the Fray Check dry and then buttoned it all together! The buttons made it super easy to hang on little nails too!

When I wanted to hang it from the end that had a button on it, I attached a safety pin it to the back and then hung it from the pin.

I have a lot of arches in my house and it was fun hanging bunting in each of them! It really dressed the house up!

I love it! I am excited to add new patterns over time for different holidays!!

We know that it’s a bit early for Teacher Appreciate, but we wanted to get these out and available for all of you that like to plan ahead!  I absolutely LOVE the Teacher Printable that we gave Nathan’s preschool teacher from Eighteen 25, but my sister requested some Subway Art Printables for her sons Intermediate School Teachers!  So, I put in a request to Lisa, sent over the specific words we liked and SHE DELIVERED!  Seriously people… how amazing are these?  Lisa is beyond good!

These would also be great for a first day of school, end of the year gift, birthday, Christmas or just a thank you for a teacher!  Just put them in an affordable white or black 8×10 frame, tie a ribbon around it and you are good to go!  I personally LOVE the look of the printables in a white frame!

Today I am going to share 3 of my favorite breakfast recipes with you.

What I love about this recipe is that not only is a easy, but you can refrigerate the batter for several days and just heat a couple of batches of waffles each day. You can also make the whole batch and freeze them like homemade Ego’s. I just make sure that if I am going to freeze them that I leave them a little less cooked than normal so when you reheat them in the toaster they don’t get overdone.

Waffles (Adapted from All Recipes)

2 eggs
1 3/4 c milk
1/2 c oil
2 c flour
1 Tbsp white sugar
4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract

Preheat waffle iron. Mix ingredients in a mixer starting with the eggs and let them beat for a minute before you add the other ingredients. Ladle into your waffle iron.

The buttermilk syrup is SOOOO yummy! We make a batch and then just reheat a little bit at a time. It doesn’t reheat well more than 1 time.

Buttermilk Syrup (Adapted from several recipes)

2 c sugar
½ c milk
½ c butter
2 tsp light corn syrup
2 tsp vanilla
½ tsp baking soda

Melt butter in a tall saucepan, add remaining ingredients except baking soda. Allow to cook and sugar to melt. Right before you are ready to serve add baking soda. Be prepared. This is kind of like the volcano experiment. It is going to get all frothy so keep mixing. Serve Immediately.

This next recipe is probably the breakfast we eat the most in our home. I make granola about twice a week. It’s fast, easy, healthy, and yummy! We eat it with fruit and yogurt as a parfait or we eat it as cereal!

Good for you Granola (Adapted from my Sis-in-law’s recipe)

3 c rolled oats
1 c coconut
1 c sliced almonds
½ c toasted wheat germ
1/3 c maple syrup
1/3 c butter, melted

Stir together the rolled oats, coconut, sliced almonds, and wheat germ. Add maple syrup and butter. Mix thoroughly. Spread in a jelly roll baking pan.

Bake at 375° for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring once. Add crasins/raisins when done cooking if desired. Cool completely. Store in an air tight container.

I love warm biscuits with freezer jam! This biscuit recipe is pretty quick to whip up and they only have to bake for about 10-12 minutes. They are soooo good!

Buttermilk Biscuits  (Adapted from All Recipes)

2 cups all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
3 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter shortening
1 egg
2/3 cup milk

In a mixer, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Add in shortening and mix until the mixture resembles coarse  crumbs. Add egg and milk; stir into dry ingredients just until  moistened. Kneed 4-5 times. Turn onto a well-floured surface. Pat with floured fingers into 3/4-in. thickness; cut with a floured 2-1/2-in. biscuit cutter – or an upside down cup    Place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake at 400 degrees F for 10-12  minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.

For Freezer Jam I like the recipe on the back of the Ball Real Fruit Pectin Instant Pectin and then I freeze it in the Ball Plastic Freezer Jars.

Hope this gives you some new ideas for breakfast! Feel free to download the recipe cards by clicking on their name.

Hi, Im Karla from Karla DeCamp Photography. Today I wanted to share with you one of my current favorite photos.

It was taken last year this time of year on Guemes Island.  It really describes all of my love for the island I grew up on.  I had been driving around the island with my Mom, who is a painter, and we were photographing the sunsets on the different shores that evening.  We came upon the West Shore and the colors were unlike any we had seen.  It was a gorgeous shade of purple that just had the most beautiful calming effect over us.  We just sat there and didn’t say a word for at least a half an hour.  I only snapped 2 or 3 photos that evening on that shore, knowing it was going to turn out just the way I wanted to remember it.  This photograph most recently sat above my Father’s hospital bed, in the last few days of his life.  He just smiled and smiled when he would look up at it.  It is now being donated to the Cancer Center in Anacortes, Washington in his memory.
