    Hey there-

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE this site. Wondering if you use on the Basher book and the chart for resources on studying the periodic table, or if you have anything else. I am a homeschooler and think this would be a good study for us that we can all get involved in. I’m just a little short on the creative side and wondered if there was another resource for experimenting with the the elements. Thanks for sharing!!!

    Gosh, just found you via Handmade Holidays on ‘Sew Mama Sew’. I look at many craft and plant related blogs but yours has really inspired and excited me as it has all the things I love: Craft! Herbs! plants! I’m going to enjoy having a good read, and I’m going to start by making the Get Well Gremlin for my little 5 yr old niece who’s poorly with the flu. So Thank You!

    I was just wondering what laminator you use. I’m looking to purchase one and it seems that yours probably gets a lot of use. Would you recommend it? Love your creative ideas!!!

    Hi….I did not learn to tie shoelaces like that. The little girl in the picture showed me this method, which seems a little simpler perhaps. I am interested to know what you figure out about rosehips. I actually enjoy just nibbling the juicy outside, avoiding the seed altogether. I’ll do a little research, too. I saw rosehip syrup mentioned in the British Country Living, in an article about bushcraft, and I have a Native American food book which might have some handy information. Thanks! Beth

    Thanks for the great site! You and the girls have so much fun together. I’ve made a few dolls out of the book and would love to own it. Please enter me in your drawing.

    I also tried your elberberry honey syrup and loved it. I was a bit cautious so didn’t share it with the kids. Thanks for the great inspiration daily!

    Hi Lisa, I came across your blog by The Vintage Chica and I enjoyed reading your post stories but specially the beautiful orange Calendula and your post for the calendula infusion the most. They are one of my favorite flowers to grow in my garden, I usually cut them and place them in a vase, or I sprinkle the flower pedals in my salad. My husband doesn’t care for them. His comment is they make the salad very colorful; however, he carefully removes the pedals and set them aside of the plate…that’s cute. Although, if I place a plate of ribs or a slice of chocolate cake in front of him, he does not hesitate, it all disappears.

    My garden is a bit bare now and the Calendula’s are gone. When I read your post, this inspire me for next year, to make the infusion next year and invite my grandchildren to help me make it. They always want to help in the kitchen and making cookies during the summer is too hot to turn on the oven, so I am always looking for ideas to share with them.

    I just created my blog this May and I am still trying to figure some of the setting and layouts. I want to add another page, but do not know how; also my friends have tried to leave comments on my blog but for some reason are not posting. Can you please help me? How did you add your “Pages of Good Stuff!” page on the side and the comment page? I hope this is not too much trouble and I do appreciate your time helping me.

    Thank you, Josie

      Josie, if you are on Blogger, there is a place for you to adjust your comments. You just need to play around with the different tabs. I left Blogger because I couldn’t figure out how to adjust picture size and I had trouble with new pages. i wish I could help more, but my husband set this site up for me. He’s the computer king in the family. Good luck with your site.

    Lisa,
    I hope this is email but I wanted you to know I do every morning look at the site to see what is happening with the kids and yourself. Due to my “pending” exit of working can you change my address to my personal email? Still not sure of my exact date.

    By the way I think the kids should make their fairy folks
