WIsemummy: DIY Challenge of the WEEK

Ok ok… it sounded sooooo easy for many who are extremely fond of DIY projects...

I , for one desire to have “THAT” same easy feeling TOO!!  but sadly I’m not that typical mommy  who always have that “ GIRLSCOUT” attitude,   I sometimes forget things and end up buying a new one  just because I don’t gear up whatever or whenever it is needed (I'm not an Irresponsible mom that's for sure and for the record),  I'm a bit shy, play stupid at times, I love movies, I like sport but never done any of it on actual  and so many things I love to try/do/experience.....

So I came up with an initiative to challenge myself week by week, from SIMPLE to EXTREME -DO IT YOUSELF STUFF/things/experience  not limited to home projects but anything even out of this world idea I can ever think of….

Since, this is my very first DIY , I will start my challenge  in the KITCHEN.. ( YEP>>>> got that right?!! Lolsss) I’m not a kitchen person, I don’t cook nor bake (seriously!)  in many ocassion  the very least I can offer is a fast food delivery service for pleading guilty  of murdering a recipe!! (!!!Vomitface!!)  But with an exemption to frying & boiling eggs as well as steam rice!!  (I’m good with dat.. neheehh!-thank you ***grin**)
