I hope everyone has found some good stuff on TpT and Teacher’s Notebook today. People are going CRAY over these sales! I’m sure there are some good deals so make sure you comment and leave a link to your store.
A few weeks ago I won a giveaway for some yummy treats from Jenn at A Pirates life for Us. She was sweet enough to wait until we were settled in our new place before sending it our way. Here’s a pic.
You see those cute cookies in there? They are from WKCafe in Ohio. She is Jenn’s cousin and she makes some delicious cookies! They were great! Thank you Jenn!
I was asked to review a pencil sharpener from Classroom Friendly Supplies. I’m sure you have seen this awesome sharpener all over Pinterest and blog land. It’s pretty adorable. It’s a great size for kids and doesn’t require much setup at all. I asked Mr. Roboto to help me review it because he is an unofficial pencil sharpener aficionado. So here’s how it went.
The sharpener comes with an attachment that allows you to secure it to a table so that there is little movement as you sharpen your pencil.
Here’s Mr. Roboto working away sharpening the pencil. It didn’t take very long and there was no awkward stop/start motion like you experience with other sharpeners.
And voilà! Here is the finished product! Super sharp right? And it took very little time at all…Also, Mr. Roboto used one of those cheap, no good, don’t ever use in a sharpener because it just breaks over and over and over again pencils. I’m sure the wonderful Ticonderoga pencils will work even better! (I love those pencils!)
I finally have organized everything, sealed deals, called in favors, even sold my first born. (I didn’t…I don’t even have a first born..and even if I did I don’t know if I’d sell it…)
Tomorrow will be the first day of my 100 followers giveaway!! The giveaway will last for one full week and each day you can earn more points by blogging, pinning, or sharing via Facebook!
Ha! Ha! I tried to stuff it with as much as I could so you would be sugared up while working in your room! Glad you liked the cookies! I have to be honest…I don't really like to eat them. She decorates them with a special type of icing that makes them hard but since they were so darn cute, I just had to throw them in! 🙂
I'm already in love with those pencil sharpeners…the inventor is a genius!
Looking forward to your celebration this week!

I have the pencil sharpener…I'm not convinced yet! We're still working on our relationship though. These things take time!
Congrats on 100 followers!
