In case you missed Sarah Palin’s awesome speech last night, here is the best part of last night’s Republican National Convention – her adorable daughter Piper fixing baby Trig’s hair.

wfmw -backwards day
It’s time for another Backwards Edition of WFMW, where I get to ask for a tip instead of give one. I’ve got two plaguing questions today:
1. Can you recommend a good heavy-duty, inexpensive iron? I would like to stay under $30, but I don’t know if that is realistic, so definitely nothing over $50.
2. Let’s talk coffee: I’ve only had the occasional cup here & there during my pregnancy, and I don’t want to go back to my 2 cup a day habit after the baby is born. I love my daily coffee, but hate being dependent on a caffeine fix. Do you know of a decaf brand that actually tastes like regular coffee? (And if you think most decaf tastes like regular coffee, well, thanks for the kind help but you are wrong :o) LOL
I look forward to reading your helpful answers – thanks!!!
have yourself an early little christmas
I spent some time yesterday shopping for craft supplies to get started on Christmas presents. I can’t believe it’s almost that time again! I want to share some helpful things to get your creativity wheels turning.
Skip to my Lou is using the month of September to post ideas for handmade gifts, and has included a printable planner. She has a cute little sidebar button so all the ideas will be in one handy spot.
It was in the comments to Skip to my Lou’s post that I found Handmade Holidays. They have some good ideas, with more on the way, as well as more helpful printable planner pages.
Finally, Graham Family Ministries is having a one week holiday sale on The 12-Week Holiday Planner for Christian Families. I was going to buy it this week anyway, so I’m very happy to save $4! (use code holidaysale) I want to encourage you to sign up for their monthly newsletter if you don’t get it. They offer so many encouraging articles, links and e-books. I’m really enjoying my Intentional Planner – the June-December 2008 is only $3 and 2009 is only $5.
Do you know of any new sites that are posting handmade holiday ideas? Please share them!
