My New Fave

February 17, 2011 by Bethany Sy

As the newest addition to my favorite things, I would like to introduce you to these very cute, very useful, Duck Measuring Cups. Don’t ask me where I got them, because my mother gave them to me… and there’s no tellin’ where she gets all her little knick knacks. She has a source. And I don’t ask… as long as cute things keep coming my way.

I like how they’re in perfect condition, but they have a distinct possibly-antique-look.

And when they’re not being used, they nest together so perfectly, and adorn my counter top.

What’s your favorite kitchen item?!

    Those are adorable! I have seen so many neat things at different flea markets. My problem…I’d rather display them instead of using them. That’s just way too much clutter. And…my favorite kitchen item is my KitchenAid mixer. A $300 mixer that I paid $125 for (clearance item at Target). Gotta love a great deal.

This project cost me less than $5 and gave me so m This project cost me less than $5 and gave me so much satisfaction! I’ve been enjoying this little corner of my counter for 6 months now, and I LOVE IT enough that I decided it needed to be a reel. You’re welcome! 😘

Making lunches is weirdly fun for me. So I snap a pic here and there to share and give ideas! Keep an eye on my stories for more! 🫶

I try to get at least one fruit and one veggie in there. For main dishes, some ideas besides sandwiches are: bagel, noodles with butter/parm, hotdog/bun, quesadillas, chicken nuggets, rotisserie chicken, ham/cheese rolled up in tortilla, and don’t forget about LEFTOVERS!!

My kids would rather have cold leftovers than a sandwich, so they don’t complain. But there’s also thermos containers if you love your kids more than I do. 

Don’t forget a sweet treat! This is a great way to get rid of Halloween or parade candy. 😬
Every summer, I learn a little more about gardenin Every summer, I learn a little more about gardening. This year I learned:

🥒don’t transplant cucumbers after they’re established or it’ll stunt their growth and they won’t climb your trellis
🥕till deeper for carrots so they aren’t short and fat
🥦plant cruciferous veggies earlier in the spring so they’ll have time to mature fully

 🙌Things I finally nailed: tomatoes, watermelon, basil, lettuce/spinach, strawberries, greenbeans. 

What did you learn this year? And what have you mastered?

@Dimetapp Cold & Cough is our go-to for itchy, stuffy, runny noses and coughs! And I love that it is alcohol free, trusted by pharmacists, and the kids love that the taste is actually sweet! No more spitting out yucky medicine, here. Exactly what they need to feel better, faster. Now we can finally get back to doing all of the things we love together, like getting crafty at home with some fun DIYs. 

What’s your next DIY project now that we’re all feeling better?!

Use as directed. @dimetapp #DimetappPartner #backtoourregularlyscheduledchaos
