Why Lima Beans?

Ok, now that we have my deep thoughts out of the way-lets jump right in... (anybody remember Deep Thoughts from Saturday Night Live?)

So why Lima Beans?  Well to be perfectly honest, I was trying to think of a name from my blog that would represent me.  Some of the things that I could think of that described me were already names in blogs- glue guns, digital diva, organized chaos, craftiness, and on and on and on.  So for some reason it hit me to combine a few of my favorite things- Lima beans and clearance shopping.

Not only do I love the taste of Lima beans but one of my favorite children's authors is David Shannon and he wrote A Bad Case of Stripes. 

Check this out on Amazon or see below to hear it being read and see the illustrations

The girl in the story, Camilla, loves Lima beans but won't eat them because no one else in her school likes them and because Camilla is not true to what she likes she gets A Bad Case of Stripes.

If you want to see an online version of this story you can go to this awesome website called Story Line Online and listen to the book being read by an actor-click HERE .

Another one of my favorite is bargain shopping.  I have great plans to create a Shopping Bucket List on this blog...stay tuned...
