Have you noticed all the tie dye t-shirts my kids have been sporting?
We've done our fair share of tie dye this summer. Miriam received a kit for her birthday so we broke it out this summer and made shirts, more shirts, pajama shirts and a few disasters.

Super messy, but fun craft.
In baking news......I made homemade fig newtons tonight. The local food co-op came with a bunch of figs and they were going bad so I whipped up this recipe. There are very few things that I think are better store purchased verses homemade, but I am going to have to put these on the store purchase list. Along with cream puffs, and pie crust (I'm sorry it's just rolled out more evenly and it tastes the same to me).
