Pay it forward




I don't have much to offer. But this past weekend something came to me, it's prom season!

My mom wanted me to keep my girlie things and pass them down to my daughter, little did we know that I would end up having 2 boys.

So, it is prom season and I have a prom dress that is hidden in the back of my closet..hasn't seen the light of day in 15 years, when I used it at my prom in 1995.

Thinking about this - it dawned on me that I have other dresses too. I have my little black number (used that for my homecoming dance in '94), I have my bridesmaid dress I wore last April. Pulling these things out in hopes that someone in need will come borrow them, I found a 4th dress that I wore in another friends wedding in '96 or '97, purple and short.

I have contacted FSA and am waiting on a call back, I also have a friend that thought this was a good idea that she is using her 'power' to get the word out.

I am not doing this to get praise, but just to do something nice for someone in hopes that they pay it forward.

A fun lil Oops.




I misplaced the egg dye, so to improvise we used food coloring. Dropping the food color in a haphazardly way - they turned out pretty cool.

*put eggs into carton to dry turning once so both sides dry completely. When you touch the eggs, even when dry, you will get color on your hands - personally that doesn't bother me.
