These cookies were a hit at a Memorial day BBQ! They were so easy to make and have ready for the evening. They are my husbands favorite cookie, and go well with a glass of milk.

Welcome or welcome back! My youngest daughter is about to have her first birthday! So, I need to get my outdoor space ready for the family to come over and enjoy! Since her birthday is in July, we will be able to have guests go outside if they want. We want guests to feel comfortable going outside, so everyone will be able to find a comfortable place to sit, eat a slice of pizza, and visit.

I was asked to give a talk yesterday at Church, and it took up a majority of my free time to write, this last week. So I thought I would also post it here. So if you would like, you can read it below!

I've had a garden for the past three years, and I can say I absolutely think it is work the work. In years past, Connor and I had started our plants from seed, but this year we had a lot going on, so we opted to pick up plants from Lowe's. We set aside a couple of days to focus on this task and made it into a fun outing with our girls.

I have been so inspired lately to create, specifically for the outdoors! I am daydreaming daily about lazy days outside, my girls playing on the grass, and seeing flowers everywhere! I'm on Pinterest almost every day looking for ideas for my home, and I think I've found a few that will be easy for me and will add to the look of my home. So, please take a peek at what I made!

Hi, welcome, or welcome back! In this post, I'll be talking a bit about spring cleaning. All of April, I've been spring cleaning! I am no expert. While I enjoy a clean room, I can't say my home is clean all the time, but it's usually tidy. I still have a lot to learn about cleaning! I think I should defer to some people I look to for advice on cleaning on YouTube, channels like Clean That Up, Clutter Bug, and That Practical Mom are my favorites, and they also seem like really cool people.

These cookies are a particular favorite of my family. I think they could be made for any holiday, but I'm going to make them for Easter this year. This is my go-to recipe for these rich nutty cookies.

Welcome back to Made by Mcleod! My last post I did a home tour with you, and we started in the entry of course, and I think why not start here with my first home improvement project for the year! You'll remember that when my husband and I bought our home, the previous owners put up board and baton wall and a few hooks. It was cute and going in the right direction but lacked personality.

This candle is so sweet, I love romantic floral scents for this time of year. as we get closer to Valentine's Day, I like to bring a little more femineity to my decor. I like to accent with pinks and creams. The doily is so nice, my mom gave it to me this last month. I thought it would be prefect to have this candle sit on top of. the doily adds the prefect dainty touch.
