A few weeks ago, I got an email from one of my blogging buddies, Carrie, The Frugal Foodie Mama.  She was asking for a favor.  I'm really used to that from fellow bloggers.  It's one of my favorite parts about the blogging community, helping each other out.  But, the favor wasn't for her.  It was for a friend, Kate.

What's better than a Free Father's Day Printable?  Cash.

DIY Photo Invitations Using PicMonkey {A Tutorial}

Make an original photo invitation and save a little cash!

I don't think it's a secret at this point that I'm kind of a control freak.  And I'm okay with it if you want to take control out of that last sentence.

So when it comes to birthday parties, I go big, and I go perfect.  Okay, who are we kidding?  There's nothing ever perfect about a kid's birthday party, but I like to pretend.

So if you've ever gone to a photo website to try to upload some pictures and create a photo invitation for your kids birthday party only to find that none of them really fit what you want to do, then I'm your gal.

Besides, when you do them yourself, you can print the exact amount you want for a low price.  For example, one photo printing store sells a set of 20 for $15.  At the same photo printing store you can buy 20 4x6 cards that you made yourself, exactly as you wanted, for $3.80.  Nice, eh?

Want to see some examples I made?

Roasted Eggplant Salad

Roasted Eggplant paired with cucumber, peppers, scallions, and parsley all in a delicious marinade makes this recipe a great side dish for summer picnics or family dinners!

When I graduated from college, many many years ago, my Great Aunt Betty gave me two gifts.  One was a hand held mixer (awesome) and the other was the St. Lucy's Cookbook.

You aren't familiar with the St. Lucy's Cookbook??

Red Wine & Blue Summer Spritzer

Red Wine & Blue Summer Spritzer.  Easy, delicious, and refreshing!  Perfect for a Fourth of July Party or any Summer BBQ.

It's Friday!  It's Summer!

Okay, it really is Friday, but the summer might be pushing it.
