Perfectly Savvy Finds- 1000 Memories
By · CommentsI have a fun find for you this week to share your old photo memories. I’ve done posts in the past about how to digitize old family photos but this one is a little different. The ShoeBox for IPhone 1000 memories app is all about ease in capturing and sharing your old photos. This is NOT about the quality but more about having fun. I see this app as a great way to get ready for an upcoming birthday party or sharing old memories quickly with your family.
The app was very easy to set up. Capturing the photos and sharing is literally a 10 second process. Try it out, have fun and let me know how you are using Shoebox 1000. There is a short YouTube video below to show you how it all works.
Recipe Review – Green Soup
By · CommentsI’ve been on a soup kick lately. I received an immersion blender for Christmas and I’ve gone soup silly. I stumbled upon this recipe for Green Soup while listening to The Splendid Table on NPR last weekend. The soup is courtesy of Anna Thomas and eating well.com. It will definitely be my go to soup when I’m beginning to feel run down or if I feel a cold on the way.
The soup is packed with beautiful greens (chard and spinach) and the caramelized onions give it an intense flavor. I did add some garlic for no reason other than I love garlic. I waited until the onions were about ten minutes from completion to avoid burning it. It definitely needs the drizzle of olive oil at the end and next time I make it I will invest in a high end oil because this soup is simple, but worth it.

Recipe Review- Crock Pot Bourguignon
By · CommentsHappy New Year everyone! First of all, I’d just like to thank all of you for stopping by my little blog from time to time and I’d like to take this opportunity to wish all of you a happy, healthy New Year.
Let’s begin the year with a delicious and savory dish that is quite easy to make. A regular beef bourguignon is a little overwhelming to me, but this crock pot version is simple and packed with flavor. I made it last week and the directions are easy to follow. I would make two minor edits to the recipe. First, I would buy a little better cut of meat. The cooking process did make it pretty tender, but I was left wanting something a step up. The only other change is that I added more broth. The sauce however is divine and worth the effort.

Perfectly Savvy Finds
By · CommentsI wrote a post a couple of weeks ago about sending holiday greeting cards because it seems that the trend to send is not what it once was. I must admit it makes me sad. I’m a huge fan of technology and streamlining, but I also love having a personal touch to special occasions. While I love receiving Facebook birthday wishes from all of my friends, nothing beats a personal card in the mail. Perhaps a savvy little organizer like this will make it easier (and more fun) to send a personal note. Just think about how much fun it is to receive a handwritten note and I think a beautiful card container like this example from Adventures in Crafting would make it just as much fun to send.
