I completed my half marathon on Sunday and it was amazing! Don’t get me wrong, it was hard work and I was tired, hungry, and sore when I finished. But, still, amazing. I’m proud of myself for improving my time by more than 6 minutes since my last half marathon.
Anyhow, this week, I did a lot of eating and resting. Half marathons wear you out. I’m a fan of resting, so it was nice not to push myself too much. And, it’s a good thing I don’t have much going on because we’re wrapping up The Boy’s school year. He finishes up next week (YAY! We made it!) and we’ve been busy with art festivals, field trips, and plays!
I haven’t done much in the way of crafting or cooking. I do need to make another batch of this delicious Quick Strawberry Jam though. It’s amazing on English Muffins and perfect with waffles, too.

I can’t wait to see what you’ve been whipping up on Wednesdays! I’m pinning what you’ve shared to my #WhipItUpWednesday board on Pinterest – be sure to follow along if you’re not already!
Time to show off what you’ve got for #WhipItUpWednesday!!
Please do keep in mind that a handmade craft is either homemade or made by hand – not something you’ve purchased. It includes recipes, paper crafts, sewing projects, decorating ideas, photography, furniture transformations and much, much more! This handmade linky party will be open until Monday at 2pm EST. I’d love it if you’d grab the button and include it, and a link back, in your post or on display it on your blog. Not required, but very much appreciated.
Just a friendly reminder, please do not link up giveaways, links to your shops, or any post that is NOT a recipe, craft, home decor or another PROJECT that you’ve created. Those links will be deleted without warning. Thank you!


Thanks so much for hosting the party!
