Nursery Project: Ribbon Lamp

June 15, 2010 by Aliesha

Our nursery is really coming together! Here’s my latest little project… an embellished lamp!
The whole room is looking really great, but we probably won’t reveal it until we have everything completely ready (I’d expect mid-July). We love how it’s looking!Want to see how our nursery is progressing? Check out our previous posts on the fabric birds, cloth cube, bunting banner, light switch cover, and white frames, wall art, and bird mobile that I made.

Easy Blueberry Banana Bread

June 14, 2010 by Aliesha

I didn’t think I was the biggest fan of banana bread until I tried this recipe! Mmm… it’s so good! I may or may not have eaten three pieces (two for me, one for baby…).
Blueberry Banana Bread

2 ripe bananas
1 vanilla cake mix
1 box banana pudding (3.4 oz.)
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup oil
4 eggs
fresh blueberries (I used about 2/3 cup)

Mash bananas in a mixing bowl. Add all other ingredients and stir. Pour batter into two greased loaf pans (or 5 mini loaf pans) and bake at 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes or until a knife comes out clean.

Let cool before slicing, if you have the patience (I didn’t).

Enjoy!Like this recipe? Follow me so you never miss a new recipe post!
