Saturday Snippets -Junkin' Battery Operated Cookie Press, Pool Noodle Cushions and Sunny Days

I was so glad we stopped by the thrift store this morning! This Hamilton Beach Super Shooter Battery Operated Cookie Press has been on my wish list for a long time. While my fingers were crossed it would still work with the batteries (and yep, it does:@) I figured I could always push the dough out manually if need be. One of the things I really like about this press is, the cookies are a little bigger than standard spritz, the discs are 2 1/4" across.

 Another reason I wanted this set...

I ~love~ that little car disc!

Big plans for that later this year... Stay tuned:@)

I have a metal yard swing under my carport and it's my favorite shady seat during nice weather. I purposely keep it as simple and understated as possible, easy to hose off and the only upkeep is to paint it every five years or so. (As well as the cinder blocks behind it I'm scraping now...) I've been kicking around the idea of cutting a Dollar Tree Foam Pool Noodle to size, adding a slit long ways and sliding it over the arm and head rests. Such a small change but it really feels nice! Gonna keep my eyes open for white noodles...

Now, I'm not saying this is going to be featured in Better Homes and Gardens, but then, 

that's not what Pig In Mud is about... 

We're all about a cheap, easy 5 minute project and a comfortable seat!

It's a gorgeous weekend here in Philly!

Nasturtiums begging to be added to a beautiful salad...

Gonna fire up the grill and futz around the yard:@)

I hope it's nice where you are too!

Have a happy day:@)
