just call me martha

so i bought this knife block on sale at 'big lots' on saturday. i'm sure there's a huge difference between expensive knives and $20 knives (on sale for $12) from big lots, but since i've never had expensive knives before i guess i don't know what i'm missing- the cheap ones work just fine for me. except the block was ugly, not painted or stained, just the raw unfinished wood. so me, just being me, would have none of that and whipped out some cute paper, some "mod podge", and black paint, and in no time had my own designer looking knife block. i don't know why i care, i just do. anyways, it was way easy if anyone wants to try it:)

That looks like something you would see in a magazine! You are amazing!!!
It was good to see Jasmine at our ward christmas party, except for she looks so grown up. That makes me feel old :) I'm still waiting to come see your house....
