New Year.

So the holidays are finally over and the New Year is upon us. I have made some resolutions for this year already and thought I would share them.
#1. Cook at least once a week. We always eat with my in-laws and it's normally out which leaves me craving home cooked meals. While I am no where near the cook my mom is, I figure you have to start somewhere. My mom always said when she first started cooking she could burn water, so maybe there is still hope for me yet.
#2. Post on my blog more. While I'm not sure that I can do once a week like I would like to do I definitely need to post more than every few months. I just found out yesterday that I had had comments on some of my previous posts and didn't even know it. Hopefully now they are set up to send me email alerts to my phone so I can see them immediately AND respond in a timely manner.
#3. Work more on my Etsy shop LoopyGalCreations. I have been trying to work more on getting exposure to my Etsy shop already. I signed up for the January (Be My Valentine) box at SamplerVillage and if that goes well I will sign up for additional boxes as it's a really neat organization and they do try to get my name out there. For those of you who don't know what Sampler Village is they collect samples from handmade businesses and then put them in a box where people purchase them. To find out more go to their website, hopefully I will have a button somewhere on my blog (maybe in the side bar?).
So those are my top 3 resolutions, I would love to hear some of your resolutions and even updates on how they are coming along.

Ok so on to the pictures. For this post I am going to put pictures up of the some of the scrubbies I sent into Sampler Village for the January Box.
 Pretty aren't they?
And here is a cool hot pad I made when I wrote the "Potholders Galore" post, but I didn't post a pic of it. I thought it was very neat and different so I thought I would post a picture of it in this post. I really don't know how I overlooked it...
Well that's all for this post. Until next time...
