Review by Veronica
Winner

Over the last couple of weeks, we have been blogging about Gardner Village. We hope that it has inspired you to pay them a visit especially during this beautiful autumn that we've been having! It's the perfect place for getting some fresh air, getting a bite to eat and walking in a pretty place.  I've been twice in the last couple of weeks. My family and I went to enjoy some breakfast during their Farmer's Market which is every Saturday through October 27th.


My son and I also went this last Friday to play with a friend and her two toddlers.  Did you know they have a small petting zoo? They do! We saw the most adorable calf and baby alpaca! Those were my favorite. It's only $4 per child to go into the petting zoo, and I love that accompanying adults are free.   My son's favorite was probably the pony ride ($5) and the itty bitty hay maze with slide and trampoline! ($2)  It's perfect for little ones!
For your older kids, have them go on a WITCH scavenger hunt for discounted cookies at The Naborhood Bakery!

They also have a very fun event called Ride to a Witch where she will take you on a journey at Cricket Hollow Swamp and tell you stories you'll love. They only have select dates for Ride to a Witch, so check the Gardner Village event calendar to make sure you don't miss this event! ($5) per person.

One reader will win 2 tickets to Ride to a Witch! UT only

Freezer Homemade Fries & Sauce

By
I LOVE fries!  I would make them more but it seems like a hassle when I'm trying to get dinner ready, kids are screaming, and I'm trying to dodge cheerios on the floor.

Then along came freezer fries and my life is far richer (lol)....not the ones you buy at the store that kinda look potato-like, but the real things.  They are also MUCH cheaper.   So instead of letting your potatoes sit around, and hoping that you remember to use them, you can make fries....yum....

To see my post on what to do with a 10lb. bag of potatoes go to The Coupon Project.

First wash and scrub potatoes ( I don't peel because I think it's miserable work)
Cut into 1/2 inch fries
Toss with oil (I usually use Canola)
Add salt and a little sugar (makes them crispy)



Place them on a baking sheets and bake at 475 for 20 minutes (they will only be half cooked)
After baking, let them cool on paper or dish towels Put in freezer on sheet (I have a small freezer so I used pie tins) Let them freeze solid (ab…

Gardner Village Series: Country Furniture & Gifts

By
Gardner Village is a local treasure. If you've never found your way down there, October is the month to do it!  The shop owners love Halloween! The village becomes a witch village and many times, shop owners will even dress up.   On my most recent trip to Gardner Village, I stopped in at Country Furniture & Gifts which is a store very ready for Halloween.

The store is located in part of the old restored flour mill built in 1877 by Archibald Gardner in West Jordan, Utah.  The store is very family oriented and houses many built-to-last items such as dining room tables, sofas, beds and chairs.  They are also famous for their rug room where many of their rugs are still USA made. As they say, "A rug makes a huge impact for a minimum investment to any room."


The home accessories and giftware are amazing!  They have all sorts of decor for all sorts of personalities. Please be sure to pay them a visit.  It's worth it!
