This has been a busy week! With Thanksgiving happening and Gracie having a hard time teething, things have been hectic at our Home. At any rate, I’ve found a lot of gems on the internet this week. I tried to pare them down to 4 per category, but I just couldn’t. Enjoy!
Homegrown: Advice on Parenting & Families
- K. Stone from Life Learning Today posted 20 Fun Things to do With Your Family on Thanksgiving, but I think they’d be fun any day of the year. (at Dumb Little Man)
- Stacey from Havoc and Mayhem made me laugh with her post about what she wanted to make for Thanksgiving
- Mariana has a list of tips to avoid the flu at Riding with No Hands
- I love the prayer that Jen from Mommay’s Mayhem taught her children.
- Amanda at kiddio posted tips for taking great pictures of children
- Heather at Not a DIY Life wrote a post about respecting other parents’ choices
Home Cooking: Recipes & Kitchen Tips
- BlueViolet at A Nut in a Nutshell posted an illustrated tutorial for making peppermint bark candy
- JollyMom has a recipe for Crockpot Stuffing at The Jolly Kitchen
- I included Kara’s post about Homemade Vanilla Extract in the Make It From Scratch Carnival that I hosted this week, but I think it’s worth mentioning again. She posted it at her blog, An Hour in the Kitchen.
- BakeSpace has a list of recipes for using up your Thanksgiving leftovers
- Amy at Crunchy Domestic Goddess posted a huge list of her favorite cookie recipes

- The Nester at The Nesting Place shared her solution for hanging a wreath without one of those strange metal things

Homespun: Crafts & Other Projects
- Katie from Making This Home (a blog that I adore, by the way!) talked about environmentally friendly wrapping paper alternatives
- Kimba at A Soft Place to Land documented her reproduction of a gorgeous Better Homes and Gardens tablecloth
- Heather at It’s All for the Best posted a list of her favorite homemade gifts, and each one includes a tutorial for making it.
- Lisa at Blessed with Grace shared a great tip for mess free finger painting with a toddler
- Amanda at kiddio also posted a neat project for kids to “make” colored leaves
- One Pretty Thing has a list of handmade gifts to give the children in your life. My personal favorite is a little rocket ship that you can make with a half yard of fabric. So cute!

I love when you do these lists! I always learn so much!! I, too, like the prayer that was posted! And the mess-less finger painting is such a fantastic idea!! I definitely have to go run out and get some of that for my toddlers!
