The Craziest Things of 2014

While looking for a photo of an ear of corn,  I know, random, don’t ask,  I realized that I did some extra crazy things last year, that might just need a second look~ so my year in review is a collection of Crazy

Sometimes getting a little crazy and loosening up is just what we need to relax and break the stress that life deals out on a daily basis.  I was commissioned by local hair salon to do this crazy painting

A cold front came in with a thunderstorm and I was complaining to a friend about our house getting hit by lightning,  on day 2 of this not so lucky New Year.   Lightning blew up our sprinkler system…which we knew because the same thing happened 3 years ago to the tune of $2500…who says lightening never strikes twice…

My friend said simply, “Well, maybe you should just get off your a…  get out there and water your own grass!”

that was a cold water wake-up!  I was being a drama queen~

In other words, keep it simple and keep things in perspective…good advice…   😳

Year in review, the Craziest Things of 2014

In January I got my jewelry organized with knobs on a painted closet wall, see Necklace Wall Organizer here

 

In February I put a pink feather boa on my mantel for Valentine’s Day

and dined on Pear and Gorgonzola Quiche

And caught  Mardi Gras fever!

March was all about Chalkboard Recipe fun

April meant gardening and painted Garden Stakes

The Beach House Addition was finally finished and our crazy powder room was revealed

In May I made an easy Daisy Dip

and painted a Beachy Bench

and made some Painted Flatware

June kicked off with some Hot Pink Fun in the Summertime

and we enjoyed Summer Salad with Magic Blueberry Dressing

The heat of  July was cooled with Chilled Peach Soup with Raspberry Cream

and we indulged in Maple Bacon Wrapped Onion Rings

and I got real crazy painting waves in Make Cleaning Fun here

August was full of Savory Apple Pie Quesadillas

and BLT BBQ Bloody Marys

In September I made a Haunted Halloween Mansion to gear up for Halloween

and made a popcorn beer for Octoberfest Beer Garden

In October I discovered a Witch at the Door

and No Guilt Microwave Potato Chips

November was full of trees like this Party Favor Tree

and the Sweet Home Alabama Tree

December turned out to be plenty of fun with some painted pumpkins and a pumpkin snowman in a Holiday Pumpkin Patch

and the kiddos counted down to Christmas with a giant Advent Calendar Tree

Yep, it was a crazy year, but you know what?  Having a little crazy, keeps things sane!

Thanks for reminiscing with me today!

My favorite post of 2014 was Happy Thanksgiving, I hope you’ll pop over and take a peek here
