No cooking or cleaning up for mom. The children got place mats and crayons and not so quietly scribbled and quibbled over who got what color. After dinner we left and the crayons stayed. What happened to the crayons? They most likely got pitched and for crayons made of paraffin wax they will sit in the landfills for years and years. Over 2 millions crayons are sold every single year but how many of these crayons are recycled and reused? Hmmm? I know my family personally recycles the crayons [...] [...] This weekend we went out to eat and it was a welcomed treat. No cooking or cleaning up for mom.

I want a magic spell that will force me to go to bed and get the proper sleep. I also want 48 hrs in a day. Love the shaped crayons for Halloween. Do you blend the colors together? Tye-Dye crayons, sounds like a new home business to me. .-= Jeanie´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.gypsychild.org/2009/09/got-milk/" rel="nofollow">Got Milk?</a> =-.

I am a teacher as well so I think I have a special section in my mind that helps me look at old junk and see the craft possibilities. <br/>Soon I will share how I took a headless stuffed toy and an unmatched sock and turned it into a puppet. :) Hey, thanks for the Green Mom shout-out.

Totally loved it (I'm not a big candy fan). I didn't know the trick with the markers, but we're totally doing this as someone in the house who shall remain nameless but is 2 years old tends to not snap the tops back on all the way and daddies don't always pay attention to this, so we've been throwing away a bunch of pretty much brand new markers lately.
