I have officially been on the Keto diet since November of last year. 8 months. I’ve lost weight. I could stand to lose a little more. However, if I never lose another pound, I will never stop eating Keto. Because there are some positive keto side effects that I am not willing to sacrifice. Other …
I don’t know if I’ve gotten across to you completely that I’m terrible at crafts. I’m sure I haven’t, in fact, because that would be dumb. You come here to get a craft tutorial and then I say, here’s this one and, by the way, I’m actually terrible at this. I mean, I SELL an …
Being a reformed plant killer, I am really doing my best to show that I have paid my debt to plant society and am ready to be a responsible adult who can contribute to the world of horticulture around me. To demonstrate this, I am going to give my Succulent plants a new home. And …
I’m not a big breakfast person. I’m also not a big morning person. I’m most functional after, say 10am. Ok, fine, noon.

So, this post started out in my head as a DIY Pencil Holders inspiration piece. Because I need something for my desk to hold my pencils. But, as I was researching DIY Pencil Holders, it became about more than just Pencil Holders. Because I’ve had a huge life change in the last month. And I …
Some days on Keto, I don’t know what to eat. I know I have to eat and I’m hungry, but I don’t feel like going through the process of actually cooking or assembling food. Or chewing food, for that matter. I just want to chug down some nutrients and be done with it. I’m pretty …
If you’ve hung around here long enough (thanks if you have!), then you know that Polymer clay is one of my favorite things to work with. I actually first discovered it when I was a Girl Scout troop leader and I took my girls to a local Craft Museum where they were taught to make …
I want to be one of those people that wakes up in the morning, throws something on, pops their hair in a bun and slathers some tinted moisturizer on and is ready to face the day. Doesn’t it sound perfect? Easy? Sort of magical? I think the fast track to that kind of lifestyle in …
