Inspired by this post on Creature Comforts Blog, we created these happy little pots for our homeless succulents. The project probably took about an hour because the paint dried really quickly outside in the sun. We’ve wondered how painting pots would effect the breathability (probably hurt it), but we figured since succulents can grow in…
rachel ray’s “thai it” pasta
When we were at the airport going home for graduation, we snagged a copy of Rachael Ray’s June 2013 magazine… partially because we had heard Kate Bingaman Burt had some illustrations inside and partially just because we wanted to try some new recipes.

Hey friends. It’s been a while since we’ve shared recipes with you, so get ready. Today we’re sharing a lot of pizzas. We just use Trader Joe’s pizza dough and add our own toppings. A couple of times they were sold out of the wheat dough, so we tried the white and herbs versions but…
