Safety FirstWhy yes! That is a slide attached to the picnic table. I shake my head every time I drive by this house in a local neighborhood. I'm all for going green but not at the cost of safety!~Southern Fried Gal
Hotel Transylvania Halloween Door
We LOVED our Halloween Door last year and I was fretting about coming up with something creative this year. BBC is eight now and he was suggesting some really creepy stuff - I just can't go there. A few weeks back we went to see the Adam Sandler Hotel Transylvania movie and our inspiration was found. ...
Southern Fried Days {2}
Pink RibbonsIn honor of the Race for the Cure in Little Rock tomorrow, today's Southern Fried Days gets serious. I snapped this picture a couple of years ago at a local crafts fair on the day of the local race. This is hands down the best race t-shirt slogan. I wish I could remember the race team ...
Southern Fried Days {1}
When Country Comes to TownAs I journey through this Southern Fried life, I amuse myself by capturing snapshots that strike me as funny or peculiar.

Spring Fever – Flowering Quince
I went to my hometown for a little girl retreat this past weekend. Our winter has been mild so Momma's Forsythia and Flowering Quince were already full of buds. I couldn't resist pilfering a few cuttings. I knew they would be perfect to bring a touch of spring into our home. Now I've got a bad ...
Happy Valentine’s Day!
Happy Valentine's Day from the Southern Fried crew! And remember... Sigh. I am blessed with a sweet and funny little Valentine (and a big one, too)!
Simple Valentines for Teacher
I was feeling a bit crafty and thankful tonight, so I whipped together this simple idea for BBC's teachers for Valentine's Day using items from around our home.I had my favorite cocoa mix on hand which feels a little more gourmet than others. Using a 12x12 piece of scrap book paper, I trimmed the width ...
For the Love of Hydrangea
Unless you are Madonna, here's a sweet twist on Valentine flowers. Instead of that expensive bunch of long-stem red roses that will soon fade away, why not opt for a lovely potted hydrangea? I picked this beauty up at my local Kroger for around $25 last weekend. Yes, it is probably a little overpriced. Where else ...
