1. Recipes Book Because of my gluten intolerance I’m constantly in the kitchen batching up a new recipe so I think it would be a great idea to keep a book of recipes I’ve made and I’ve enjoyed so that I have a book to go to when I’m struggling for ideas but also to share it, pass it over to family or friends, or even my kids when they’re older.

The Ultimate Guide for Removing Super Glue from Anything
I'm a dad who likes to do crafts with his son. We've done everything from some easy Christmas tree crafts to even more advanced DIY projects.
