How to keep a windshield crack from Spreading

This is a hard pin to know if it really works or not.  I think the type of crack,  how long the crack has been there and where the crack is all make a difference in if it really works or not.  But the pin just states that you can fix any crack with nail polish and with that statement I have to say that no, this pin does not work.  I live in Utah, where they put a lot of sand and gravel on the road, mix that with big semis and you get a lot of cracks on your windshield.  I am already on my second windshield in 4 years, that is how often you get chips in your windshield and if you do not fix them, they turn into big huge cracks in your windshield.  I had a chip that I wanted to seal off on my own so I tried this pin and let me tell you, I now have a crack that runs the length of my windshield from that small chip.  So I have to say this pin does not work at all, it has all the hallmarks of one that would work, it is cheap, it is easy and takes hardly any time at all but it just does not work.   It is best to leave it to the pros and let them fix it for you.  Most insurance plans cover them, anyway and it only takes a minute for them to fill the chip in.

Map Banner

One of my best friends is moving to Arizona so my girlfriends and I wanted to throw her a going away party.  I wanted to throw something really cute and fun so I searched good ole Pinterest for ideas that I could use to decorate and throw this party.  One theme I settled on was a map theme, I used it for everything we did, from a banner that hung over the tables, to wrapped bottles for drinking, to flags in the cupcakes.  I used maps for everything that had to do with the party. I will add some photos of the party later,  I forgot to download them as I am typing this.  Love the ideas I found and think it turned out great.

Sausage, Egg and Cheese Burritos

Sometimes it is funny to me the simple, easy things you find on Pinterest.  This pin is one of those super easy and quick meals that is sure to please almost everyone.  We have been making "breakfast burritos" for years but never put sausage in them.  Breakfast burritos are quick, easy, cheap and so yummy.  They work for breakfast or dinner or lunch and please just about everyone.  Adding sausage or bacon just makes it that much better.  We also add salsa and sour cream which makes them super yummy as well.   Yum!!
