Okay, we are about to enter that most busy time of year. For my family, the official shopping season begins the day after Christmas. Though I have put my foot down this year and refuse to go to Walmart. Told mom if she is going, I’ll meet her at Target. I really cannot fathom torturing myself with all of the noise, pushing, shoving, rudeness and crazy rush for the cheapest of the cheap. I will actually be doing quite a bit of shopping online this year. But I do enjoy Target’s toy section. This year, we are wanting to redo my son’s room. He is turning five in January and we want to give him a more grown up room. His room actually turned into everything exactly the opposite of what I wanted, a huge random toyfest that could rival any toystore. From bells and whistles to just downright insane. One day this month, while he is at school I plan on going through his toys and only keeping those things that he truly loves. I am going to buy him a chalkboard table, like the one below for Christmas.

I also plan on getting him some corkboard and a magnetic dry erase board. Between now and his birthday, I am hoping to get his room completely re-organized and redone. I want him to be able to enjoy his room, which he can’t now because it is so severely overrun with toys.

I don’t know if you have been on Amazon lately, but that have a tone of organic bedding on sale right now. This stuff is beyond cheap. I am wanting to pick myself up a pair of sheets because you can’t go wrong with these prices. Check them out:

This organic Jersey sheet set comes in Cream or Blue and is currently only $29.99. Yes, you read right, $29.99 for organic sheets. They are disappearing like hotcakes. Yesterday, when I looked they had a few more colors.

These Spa Life Organic Percale Sheets in Natural are also a great deal $59.98. When I have looked elsewhere for organic sheets they always cost over $100, so I was very excited to come across such great deals.

The other day, when we were in Palo Alto for my dad’s surgery we stopped at a diner for breakfast. I ordered a hash brown skillet with veggies only. They were great about making sure nothing had meat, butter or cheese and it was super delicious. So yesterday for breakfast I decided to make my own version. I grated up some potatoes and cooked them in olive oil making hashbrowns and in a separate skillet I sauteed onion, garlic, mushrooms and broccoli in vegan butter spread. Then I poured the cooked vegetables on top of the hashbrowns. The results, a delicious, savory breakfast that I will be cooking over and over again.

Hope everyone is having a great day and I will chat atcha soon.
