A DIY project!

It's Monday already and I'm already tired.... blah. More coffee please?

The weekends go by way to fast... 
Saturday I spent the day out shopping with my mother and sister in law. 
I did get a few items, new work out pants, top and another hat. I really don't need another hat, I have like 6 of the same type of hat, all different colors of course, but in the winters I love my hats.. I even wear them in the house. (But, that's probably because our house is ten below-freezing..)

Sunday was a super lazy day... You know, one of those days where you refuse to get out of your pajamas. Yes, that was me yesterday.. it was a PJ day.. and it felt gooooood.

Just because I was rockin' PJ's all day doesn't mean i didn't get anything done. I cleaned, did wash and did my own DIY project. 

I finally got around to making my own recipe book to keep me organized with the recipes I am constantly getting from the internet or magazines, or wherever! 

Right after Christmas i bought a 3 ring binder in my favorite color of course.. and it sat around for 2 weeks. But, I got it done yesterday. After decorating the cover and putting some tabs inside I thought it came out rather nice. 

Take a look...


 

Because it does...

Tabs for whatever your little heart desires. I just cut in half filing folders and labeled them with titles like this: Appetizers & Snacks, Savory Soups, Best of Beef, Best of Fish, Great Poultry, Breads & Muffins, Breakfast and Brunch, Crockpot, Veggies & Grains, Side Dishes, Salads & Dressings, Cakes, Cupcakes, Pies & Other Desserts.
Can you tell what I make most often? Dessert, it takes up 3 tabs.

 I'm still working on it. Of course adding recipes and such, but I will be doing a collage from pictures out of magazines on every tab of it's appropriate food, just for fun! You can see the start of the collage on the first tab on the picture above.

Ooh la la.
