Under the plan of heaven, the husband and the wife walk side by side as companions, neither one ahead of the other, but a daughter of God and a son of God walking side by side. Let your families be families of love and peace and happiness. Gather your children around you and have your family home evenings, teach your children the ways of the Lord, read to them from the scriptures, and let them come to know the great truths of the eternal gospel as set forth in these words of the Almighty.

Master Bathroom Pictures

Tub Surround: How do I decorate this? Any have any ideas?
This is the true color of the walls on this picture. Creamy Tan!
Another mistreatment. I really love the way this turned out. Its my favorite. What do you think? I need decor on the walls... Help me someone. Comments Welcome.
I guess I need to move my clock down after looking at this picture. That is a total no-no!

Both windows in my Master bathroom have Mistreatments on them. I totally love them. What do you think? Should I leave them as is or change them up a bit. The one by the shower curtain really makes me nervous? Does it look good. I switched it out with a smaller piece of fabric and so it just has little pokey outs now and isn't draped. What do you think???Thanks so much to the Nester and the linky on mistreatments....

Everything Etsy

I just wanted to share a post that has all the information about how to use etsy. I they are having a drawing for an awesome tassel that would have a wonderful home in my bedroom. Its perfect, blue, and creams, golds. I'm totally in love with it. As some of you know I have struggled on how to accessorize my bedroom.

Now on another note... For those of you who would like to make extra cash, all you have to do is make it and sell it on etsy. I am thinking I might have to start using this. I have always been an ebayer, but maybe its time to call myself and etsyist(not a word I know..)

Read post at The Nesting place on Etsy to get all your info..

Feather and Egg Print Mr. Linky Party!

Check out these blogs!!!

The Nester is having a linky party over at the Nesting Place. Check out her blog. She is awesome and so is lherbertdesigns. This girl is awesome. I love her eggs, feathers, and nest pictures. I hope I win!!!
This is my bedroom, I redid it last year. The picture above my bed is not real, I was trying to see if a big art picture would work. Also, the headboard is drawn on in the picture. I actually have a real life brown padded headboard and it looks just like that. Sorry no updated pics, my camera's out of life..lol I would be so honored to put the prints in my room, or my master bath that is painted the same color and has a u-shaped wall area around the tub. I am really struggling with decor. This would solve my problem. I love the prints. They are beautiful. Oh by the way, everything is either second hand or redone, except for the bedding. I got that for a christmas present.


(Oh the curtain panels are both the same fabric in real life, its the one on the left side.)Bedding is from Target, sure wish I could find that shower curtain that everyone is looking for with the birds on it. I would be perfect in my bathroom.

Chicken Lo Mein


I am going to try making this yummy looking recipe this week. I will post back on how it turned out. If you have ever used this recipe or have one similar will you share it. I love Chinese and Asian food. I would love to try some great recipes.


1/2 lb. spaghetti, uncooked
1/4 cup KRAFT Asian Toasted Sesame Dressing
1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 pkg. (16 oz.) frozen bell pepper and onion strips, thawed, drained
1/2 cup fat-free reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 Tbsp. peanut butter
1/4 cup lite soy sauce
2 Tbsp. chopped cilantro
2 Tbsp. chopped PLANTERS COCKTAIL Peanuts
Make It

COOK spaghetti in large saucepan as directed on package.

MEANWHILE, heat dressing in large nonstick skillet on medium-high heat. Add chicken and garlic; stir-fry 3 min. or until chicken is no longer pink. Add peppers, onions, broth and peanut butter; stir-fry 3 to 4 min. or until chicken is done.

DRAIN spaghetti; return to pan. Add chicken mixture and soy sauce;
mix well. Spoon onto platter; sprinkle with cilantro and nuts.

Kraft Kitchens Tips Variations
Spicy Chicken Lo Mein: Add 1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper to the hot dressing along with the chicken and garlic. Pork Lo Mein: Substitute 1 lb. pork tenderloin, cut into strips,
for the chicken and reduced-sodium beef broth for the chicken broth.
Note
To make the lo mein easier to serve and eat, break the spaghetti in half before cooking.
