Learn how to make some easy moon and star decorated sugar cookies with this royal icing cookie decorating tutorial!!  When I was in college, I was a whitewater rafting guide in a fairly remote part of Wyoming.

Oh good!  Because I feel like I just need someone to know that I actually did laundry today.  I mean...not A LOT of laundry. And I only folded most of it.

Especially the ones where I don't have to work and my kids don't have to go to school. Because I'm lazy? Sure.  But also because I love when things are fun AND lazy.  We celebrate all the major holidays around here.
