Frugal Cupcake

Happy Easter!!

I dyed eggs yesterday after work and made sugar cookies to get myself into the Easter spirit :) And now, I feel fat today because I've eaten a lot of sugar cookies! haha I was doing really well at going on walks to get exercise but then the weather got crappy and I just wasn't in the mood for it! I did lose some weight but I've probably gained a ton of back this weekend >_< I wish I owned a treadmill, I like to think that I would use it!

I've been working on coming up with ideas for the blog :) I'd like to incorporate a couple of weekly blog memes... like "things i love thursday" etc. What are your favorite weekly blog post series?? Another one that I really love and probably will do is called "52 new" you post weekly about new things you have done or tried during that week. Come on, comment on this post and tell me what you like!

Happy April!

Hope everyone has a good Easter weekend :) How about we celebrate with a few Easter egg pictures???

hope you have a Happy Easter!

Make a Journal Jar

I am still in my "journal" mode of thinking, and I thought I would search the internet for lists of journal prompts (ideas or things to journal about) and I found many lists. But I also discovered Journal Jars! A few of the sites had mentioned these, you just write journal prompts on little slips of paper and put them in the jar... then you pick one out every day and that is the topic you write about :) Sounds like a good idea to me! These prompts can also be used for your blog entries or you can make an art journal page about them!

Here's a few sites with great lists of journal prompts:

You can literally find hundreds of websites with lists of journal prompts because they are used so often by teachers. So if you don't find any inspiration from those links (impossible!) then you can just do a web search on "writing prompts", "journal prompts", "blog prompts" etc.

Blah.

Nothing much happening in the blog world today! Hah, none of my favorite blogs have updated :( I'm bummed out about this. The weather outside really isn't that great, is it???????

I just checked out weather.com and realized that it's going to storm tonight and tomorrow =/ I'm supposed to go out to dinner and a movie tonight (the bounty hunter) with a friend. We were originally supposed to go yesterday but she wasn't feeling so great. We'll probably eat some mexican food :) What are you doing tonight?

Inspiration: Art Journal pages
