You're The Star - Family Feature Week

Happy Monday. I hope you had a wonderful weekend. We had a busy weekend working in our yard and the garden. I even planted some plants that needed to get into the ground. What did you do over the weekend?

Chocolate-Chip Cookie Dough Brownies

Chocolate-Chip Cookie Dough Brownies


My husband loves brownies and I like to find new ways to make them. When I saw this recipe on Martha Stewart I thought he would like them. Her recipe called for making home made brownies. I already had a box of brownie mix so I decided to use that instead.

Also, she used chocolate chunks and I decided to use dark chocolate chips.

Over The Moon Linky Party

Welcome to Over The Moon Linky Party

Over The Moon Linky Party. Share NOW. 2 hostesses - 5 features. #linkyparty #OTM #eclecticredbarn #overthemoon

Happy Sunday! I hope you are having a wonderful weekend. We were busy outside but then again, we always seem to be busy outside. No sooner do we get something done, and we fine another project to do. I never have time to post the projects, but at least they get done. How are your projects coming? 

My favorite part of these parties is reading your comments. I feel like I get to know you and that we are almost like "texting" back and forth. You share your stories with me and I share mine - just like friends.  So keep them coming.

Hello Bloggy Friends!  I hope everyone is healthy and maybe getting to go out a little. I haven't ventured out much except I did go to the grocery store. A few more stores opened up but I will wait a while before going to them. What is happening in your area?

Welcome to this week's features. These are just a few of the things that I really enjoyed reading from last week's entries. There were so many good ones to choose from. 


Have a look at this spring table from It All Started with the Paint. It's so fresh and clean with pink and grey. I love the lanterns Linda, wishing you had said where you got them. Don't miss the double sided table runner on Linda's table. She has a tutorial for it.

Next we have a beautiful spring wreath from Yvonne at The Stone Gable. I'm always drawn to this blog whenever I see her photos. It doesn't look that difficult to make either. I had to order the black and white ribbon right away (even though you can't get it until June).

This one caught my eye because I'm so eager for a night out. This list of quarantine date night ideas from the Lou Lou Girls got me thinking. I wish I lived in some place with a view like this.

The next feature is a paper craft. These cactus paper cards are so cute. I haven't done much with cards, but this makes me want to try. This is from Antonella at White House Crafts. She has so many cute paper cards.

The last feature is part of a one room challenge series with Better Homes and Gardens. I would love to try one of these, but for now I will just have to live vicariously through Kathryn over at The Dedicated House. She is transforming her daughter's bedroom, but here is her breakfast nook from her entry in the 2017 challenge.

Thursday Favorite Things

Welcome to Thursday Favorite Things!

Thursday Favorite Things. Share NOW. #linkyparty. #TFT #eclecticredbarn

Happy Thursday! Can you believe that we are almost half way through May. I think we are going to have one of those years where it flies by. Maybe it is because we are having so much work done on our home. We have had more contractors here than you can imagine. One day, we had three different ones all working at the same time. I think I just want it all to be done. 

The pool is done but there is still so much to do around it and the yard. By Friday, all the sod will be done and the side patio. The last contractor will not be here for another 2 weeks. That's OK, I can enjoy the yard being completed. No more sand and dirt. 

Many of my features come from you my commenters. Don't forget to leave your Linkup Number or Post Title so I can find you and you could become one of my featured commenters next week.
