This Thai Chicken Soup is one of my all time favourites that we make again and again all year long! Winter nights call for warm, cozy, comfort food and one of our favourites is soup. There's just nothing like a nice steamy bowl of homemade soup. Some of my go-to's are big meaty ones like Chicken Taco Soup and Stuffed Pepper Soup, but my husband surprised me about a year ago and made us a light and spicy Thai Chicken Soup and it quickly became one of our … [Read more...]

If you love decorating with a rustic woodland theme, you'll have a lot of fun painting your own Wood Slice Ornaments. Once you have your wood slices cut from a branch and dried, painting scenes and characters are quick and easy and a whole lot of fun.
