Your videos always help give me that extra push I need to get up and get something done. Thank you so much. A few tips I've learned over the years for some things I saw in this video, the magic erasers and the cracker candy. On Amazon you can buy a big box of the eraser material and cut it yourself for cheaper than buying the mr clean pre cut sponges. The cracker candy to save another dirty dish for melting chocolate after you pull out the candy from the oven sprinkle chocolate chips over it right away cover with tin foil for another few min then spread out the melted chocolate pieces. 💚💚💚💚 love you and thank you again for sharing.

Wow, that line you said seems to really sum up women--it doesn't all have to be done to be good. Why is it we feel like we can't relax until EVERYTHING is done & perfect?!!!! Laughed out loud at the finger snaps 😉😃 Yes, we always try to have everything perfect but since no one is we need to lower the bar like you said!! When things don't go exactly as planned it's a GREAT opportunity to teach them to roll with it & so often things happen & turn out better than you'd planned! Different maybe, but great!! It looks like you've already done a good job of teaching that, thus the gingerbread pizza!! Awesome!!! Love, hugs & God Bless you 💕💕
