While Rob was grouting our new penny tile bathroom floor Sunday, I decided to pull out our Christmas decorations and get cracking.

Well, we managed to put in a whole new bathroom floor this weekend, although we still have lots to do to put our bathroom back together.

If you know anything about me, you know that: a. I love to demolish things and, b. once I make a reasonable plan for a home-improvement project, I want to start it right. this. minute.

I've hated our bathroom floor for pretty much as long as I can remember.

It has vinyl press-on tiles that always look dirty, and there is a definite slope behind the toilet that has always worried me.

I blogged yesterday with photos of a cake my friend Erin Lippitz made for her niece's first birthday party this weekend.

Today and tomorrow, I'm sharing a cake my baking coworker Erin Lippitz made for her niece's first birthday party this weekend. Her niece's name is Sam, and you'll see it on the top of the cake.

As I recently contemplated changing my blog's name, I had a chance to go through some of my unpublished blog posts. There are quite a few, for one reason or another.

I have some exciting news: I have changed my blog's title to "Meg Makes."

OK, it's probably more exciting for me than for you. I deliberated over a new name a while back, but couldn't make a decision.

Recently, I've had fun making one card-holding wreath and sprucing up a paper wreath I made to decorate our front door last Christmas.
