When I was a little girl we used to go to my grandma's farm. One of my favorite flowers at Grandmas were Hollyhocks. (Like in the picture below). At Grandma's farm my mom used to make us kids Dolls made from the hollyhock flower (like in the picture below). Last night while at Mom's house we were admiring her beautiful hollyhocks and I asked her if she could show me how to make "those hollyhock dolls" So here you have it..... My cute little mom and her "hollyhock Doll" I like how the shirt mom is wearing kind of matches the doll.

This is one of the many activities we enjoy in the summertime. Making leaf crowns, and spending an afternoon or two pretending to be Queens of the Forest, Roman Emperors, or Oak Leaf Fairies! So...go out and find a tree you LOVE...you can use any kind of leaf to make these... We have two HUGE Oak trees in our yard...so Oak leaves are our leaf of choice! Make sure when you pick the leaves that you pull off the stems as well... You'll want to break off all of the stems... These are what will hold your crown together... So now, overlap your leaves a bit, and using the stem, push it through both leaves like so... you'll need to do this leaf by leaf, until your crown is big enough to fit. Attach it together, using the same method as above... Now, get out your imagination, and get down to doing some serious playing...and don't forget to climb a tree or two in the process! Oh, there is nothing like a tree in the summertime...what a gift from nature! Of all the wonders of nature, a tree in summer is perhaps the most remarkable; with the possible exception of a moose singing "Embraceable You" in spats. ~Woody Allen May nature lead your spirit in play! xo maureen

This lot includes three seagulls - Peter, Emma and Oxford. Peter is funny, noisy, a good fisherman and a skilled sailor, who loves adventure and the deep sea. Pete is a free and independent spirit, moves with elegance and quickly adapts. He will remind you to look at life from all the different points and that sometimes we need to look at things from a higher perspective in order to solve a certain issue. Peter always shows his individuality and follows his own path. He bravely expresses and defends his opinions. He isn’t pretentious and loudly expresses his joy and gratitude towards everything that nature and humans give him to salvage. Emma is strong and beautiful, brave and smart. Emma loves her freedom and independence, she will remind you to stand up for yourself, but without hurting others, to be generous to everyone and especially to yourself. Oxford is a gentleman, loves geography and archeology. He is always ready to fly to new adventures. Of course, like any seagull, Oxford is greedy and will never refuse you a cup of tea with sandwiches.

Computer Science Professor Francesco De Comité has a fantastic gallery of mathematical images on Flickr. As part of this collection, he has a few hundred images of real or rendered polyhedra made out of paper or playing cards which he calls "slide togethers." These are constructed by making cuts and then sliding one component into the other, creating a shape without using any glue. He constructed the entire set of the platonic solids—the cards form their edges—which can be seen in the image b...

Who doesn't love cheese, well unless you are lactose intolerant. Cheese is one of those items I really wanted to learn about considering how much Mr. Perky and I consume. It is surprisingly easy to wax cheese for long term storage. It's just a matter of getting all the proper equipment. First I wanted to share, this block was waxed 7 months ago and has been sitting in a cool, dark, dry place. Look how beautiful it looks. How To Wax Cheese: This delightful Gouda has a wonderful taste and I really can't believe it worked so well. Let's start with the fact that as you eat the blocks of cheese, you are able to wash & rinse the wax and add it to your next waxing batch. Research. First, I read multiply cheese waxing posts on Preparedness Pro's blog & I ordered her DVD “For the Love of Cheese” Resource Guide, with video and written instructions. It was extremely helpful & answers a lot of question. Now let's get to it. You will need to have dedicated equipment for waxing, since you won't be able to get these items completely clean again. Get your equipment. You need a double boiler, parchment paper, a thermometer, boar bristle brush, cheese wax & muslin. (Amazon Associate links) Seriously? This picture of the double boiler and wax won't post correctly, so please tilt your head to the left to see it properly. Then comes the cheese. Use hard cheese. Test it (before buying by pressing your thumb into the cheese, it needs to not leave a thumb imprint to be dry enough) Prep & dry the cheese. I cut them into meal sized portions. Wiped it down with vinegar & wrapped it loosely with a paper towel. Then let it it out on the counter to get to room temp. & to dry it out more. Pat it down to remove moisture. Moisture will interfere with the wax adhering process. Break up the wax (tip: take the plastic wrapping off before you cut it) and melt in a double boiler until your temp. reaches 180 – 212 degrees. Wash hands. Dip half of each block of cheese, slowly in & out of the wax. Hold it over the pot for a few seconds to allow the excess wax to drip off. Gently set on parchment paper (a smooth surface will help eliminate lumps & bumps in the wax). Set the side you just dipped facing upwards. Let it cool for at least 90 seconds. Then dip the opposite side of the cheese. Dip 3 times (3 layers). Look how nice they look. Then brush one more layer on. Look for spaces where it may have not been covered. Add the labels (I cut them out ahead of time) to the block of waxed cheese and wax a thin coat over the label. It will adhere the label and you can still read the label. I tried adding one of those canning jar labels to see how it would work. I labeled it first, then dipped it in the hot wax. It was a little gushy, but it worked. Then, I wrapped up the brush and thermometer up in foil for the next time. I let the wax cool in the double boiler, then packed it all away. After the wax has cooled sufficiently, then wrap each piece with a piece of cheese cloth, like a gift package. Store in a cool, dark place & fairly dry. It should last for years and years (she gives 8-10 years). But I will stress it depends on how well you follow the instructions and how well you store the cheese. Again, I am going to suggest getting the DVD and written resource from Preparedness Pro's blog. There is entirely too much information to share here, and it is her copyrighted work. There you have it. My second batch of waxed cheese. (358) We would love it if you joined our FaceBook community at Perky Prepping Gramma.. Amazon Associate Links for your shopping cart:
