Welcome to Mary Lou's Sitting Room

Hello! You are entering the world of Mary Lou...hope you have fun here! I created this blog to be a place of refuge in the storm, inspiration in the fog, light in the darkness, and hope for your life. I love to encourage people and have fun-I hope you will find this true as you visit me here. I plan on writing about all types of subjects, because I am interested in all the good things God has made, so hang on for the ride~! I love to sew and also cook...hence the name..

Thursday Tidbits & Tips..

Did you know...... that if you keep a sep wash cloth in your shower & wipe it down before you get out each time you'll never have to scrub it? Just freshen it with a bleach cleaner once/week to kill germs, but you won't end up with scum! yea! ..and if you spray that cleaner on your sinks every few days you won't have to scrub them, either! Just don't let that icky stuff accumulate in the first place...


Did you know....that by being thankful first thing in the mornings you will avoid starting the day with a bad attitude? People will enjoy being around you more and you WILL be happier!

Did you know....if you save your yarn scraps you can make a scrappy scarf (see pic) or an afgan! It all adds up!  I've seen them in the stores & they are asking a lot for something you can make for practically nothing if you have scraps of yarn to use!  :)
Did you know...saving for a rainy day really works?! Having a budget keeps your spending in check & allows you to have savings for those unexpected expenses that inevitably happen!

Did you know...you can make soup or a skillet scramble out of all kinds of food leftovers(see below)...don't throw them away until you've searched Allrecipes.com or another website that allows you to search by ingredient....saves bunches of $ to do so!

 All for now....hope you have a delicious day!
