2012 PaperCuts Blog Survey

Posted on | August 2, 2012 | No Comments

It’s hard to imagine, but the PaperCuts blog will turn 5 years-old this mid-October!  — Woohoo! From it’s humble beginning in late 2007 hosted on Typepad through the renaming of the blog title to it’s current home as part of the Feterie site in late 2008, I never thought that this little ‘ol blog would evolve, gain readership as it has, and become a growing brand of it’s own over the years.

I have big exciting plans for the blog as it’s getting ready to leave the nest (so to speak). But first, I’d love some feedback from all of you about what you like (and don’t like) so far. Would you please help me out and take a moment to answer this quick survey? It will only take 5-10 minutes. I’d greatly appreciate it.

Finally, thank so much for all of you who have been readers from the very beginning and recently become new ones! I can’t wait to share the new home of the Papercuts blog with you.

Cheers!


 

{Freebies & Goodies} Pull Apart Garlic Bread

Posted on | July 24, 2012 | No Comments

If you follow my tweets, you know I love to bake and cook because to me it’s such a therapeutic activity. This great (great as in easy and fast) recipe from Melissa Riani for pull apart garlic bread is awesome! I recently made it for my son (the pickiest eater in the world) and he approved! It’s also great with marinara sauce as a dip for a snack.

Melissa was kind enough to give me permission to make it available as a printable recipe card complete free to download and for your personal use (modified from one of our personalized recipe cards). You can download the recipe card (shown above) by clicking here.

Another bit of news to share, I am excited to share that Melissa will be a regular contributor to the PaperCuts blog. She recently answered my Call for Guest Bloggers and I couldn’t be more pleased. So, you can look forward to more goodies from her in the very near future! Meanwhile, follow Melissa on Twitter (she’s the genius behind Crate&Barrel’s Geneva store’s blog).

{Have You Met} Joel Henriques

Posted on | June 21, 2012 | No Comments

Last week, in a quest to keep my incoming first-grader busy with activities until summer school starts (yay!) I went on a hunt for Paris-related coloring pages per my son’s request (his interest may have something to do with his cousins spending the summer there). The Francophile mother in me reveled in my son’s interest of Paris and then we both discovered a gem of a find in Joel HenriquesParis Paper Set. Oh, my! What a darling and playful set of landmarks illustrated in such a whimsical style. After we printed the set on cardstock, my son got to work carefully coloring the printables and then I trimmed it and folded them just as instructed. There are tons of great printables on Joel’s site to print out and enjoy with your kids.

The more time I spent on Joel’s site, the more excited I became to discover his other works and that he has a book called Made to Play, too! What a wonderful discovery I found in Joel’s site and I can’t wait to see what else he comes up with.
