The origins of scrapbooking are, of course, as a paper craft, and in some ways are a loop of going from the paper books with photo-corners, to photo albums and sleeves in pages, to its current form – preserving our pictures and memories through time. Now, in this age of digital photography, one may be hard-pressed to find a 35mm camera user. Instead of pictures being stored in envelopes, or drawers waiting to be organized, and put in an album, they are stuck on memory cards, or hard drives waiting to be printed, and put in an album. So, why not take advantage of all that can be done with a computer when it comes to scrapbooking? Here are some ideas…
Digital photography is here to stay, and technology is making it easier everyday to store, organize and preserve our pictures, and our memories. Whether with a specific computer scrapbooking software package, or individual clipart elements, using a computer to assist in scrapbooking can add a unique personal touch to page layouts without taking away from the traditional paper craft artistry of scrapbook albums.

When it comes to making homemade dessert pies, there are numerous varieties that you can make. Two of my favorite homemade pies happen to be apple and pumpkin.
A few years ago…my mother gave me 2 of her favorite crustless pie recipes that are really easy to make. At first I wasn’t too sure if I would even like a crustless pie but after making them and trying them, they have now become favorites with my family.
Mom’s Apple Pie
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups apples, chopped
1 cup nuts, chopped
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease two pie plates. In mixing bowl, combine the granulate sugar and all-purpose flour. Add in the eggs, baking powder, salt and vanilla extract, stir until smooth. Stir in the chopped apples and nuts. Pour into pie plates. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes or until done.
Mom’s Pumpkin Pie
4 eggs
2 cups milk
1/2 cup Bisquick Baking Mix
1/3 stick butter
1 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
3/4 cup sugar (1/2 cup white sugar and 1/4 cup brown sugar)
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup canned pumpkin puree
Mix all ingredients in a large bowl by hand in the order that they are given in the recipe. Once combined, pour the mixture into a blender container and blend for 2 minutes. Pour mixture into a large pie pan that has been greased with butter. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for approximately 45 minutes or until done.
