The Organized Life, February Paint Bucket
Happy February!
Let’s kick the month off with shopping and dining!
How about a tote to carry your groceries, they’re on sale today only with free shipping here
The high quality totes are roomy, and available in 3 sizes
The laptop sleeves are well padded with a easy zip closure, and the iPhone case is durable, protective and always gets compliments
I’m going to take advantage of the sale today and stock up on notecards and get a travel mug
Okay, now let’s eat!
I am always happy to bid January goodbye, and to start thinking forward to Super Bowl Sunday, Valentine’s Day, Mardi Gras, St. Patrick’s Day and Easter. So much to celebrate in the days to come!
Flavor of the Month for February is….Raspberry

I tweaked Brussels Sprouts Gratin from Love Foodies by using light cream and bleu cheese for Brussels & Bacon Gratin

Jenna, I love raspberries, so I am excited about the flavor of the month. I can’t wait for red velvet cannoli…I don’t know how I will squeeze it in my Whole 30 Diet! Happy Wednesday!
I got the idea for the red velvet cannoli from seeing the crepes on your Valentine roundup post, and Lulu’s Musings delicious looking cannoli but I haven’t quite decided how to make it yet so your diet might be safe 🙂
Raspberry Chipotle Chicken sounds like a winner to me! Happy February:@)
Love all your art totes and travel bags, gorgeous. Great recipes to dish up for Super Bowl Sunday. Although we aren’t big fans of this bowl we enjoy the fun and fellowship with family and a food spread. My printer will be busy this morning………….
thanks Emily, we love any excuse for football food!
Those totes and bags are wonderful and I am so hungry looking at every glorious photo! Maybe it’s time for breakfast!
Thanks Jeanie!
so much beauty and yumminess! You are awesome!
Goodness jenna, all of that yummy food is making me hungry,,,,LOL Cute totes as well. My husband isn’t into football, so we will probably watch a movie.
It’s always delicious at your table Jenna! I ordered your flower pot tote and it was so easy paying through Amazon. It should arrive the beginning of the week! ♥
Thank you Mary! I hope you love it! >
I want that Sugar Cookie Birthday Pie just because! Thank you for sharing with us this week at Celebrate Your Story, have a great week.
