I don’t have a ton of energy to talk about anything important. If you’re curious about how I feel about this inauguration today, see this post. I did hear something interesting on my favorite NPR show, Fresh Air, this week. You know that quote, “Well behaved women seldom make history”? I’m sure you’ve seen it …
Before you get too excited, I’m not talking about painting with wine when I talk about art with sharpies and alcohol, I’m talking about rubbing alcohol. Although, feel free to add the wine if you like. Just drink it, don’t paint with it. Or maybe wine is a fantastic additive for paint. What do I …
News flash! Just because you want to (or have to) eat gluten free, doesn’t mean you can’t eat totally indulgent, super tasty food every once in a while. I made these Gluten Free Burger and Fry Bites this weekend to munch on while we watched football and they tasted like a really good fast food …
Oh, how I love me some Anthropologie. Mostly because of the inspiration it brings. Inspiration for things I can make or duplicate OR inspiration to make some dollah bills cause Anthro is expensivo. Here is what I would Buy, Spy (find a cheaper version somewhere…ahem… Marshalls…ahem…Home Goods) or DIY (make it myself because that always …
Happy New Year, if I haven’t said that already. I should have said it when I wrote my New Year’s post about my word of the year, Commit. (See here). This year I’m working on committing. To my commitments. So that I actually do the things I want to do. For instance, I’m going to …

Remember that time I did some posts about what I want, need, wear, make and eat? That was awesome. Let’s do it again! WANT: Instant Pot: I discovered the wonderful Instant Pot this week and am dying to get one. Why so expensive, Instant Pot? I need a sale and a 30% off coupon from …
This is a fun story. I’m going to share with you how to paint an upholstered chair, a project that I absolutely hated. It was truly one of the most annoying projects I’ve ever done. Actually, I think it probably gets top billing. I did cover an entire HUGE mirror frame in teeny tiny green …
Happy New Year! I can’t be the only one that equally loves putting up Christmas decorations as she does taking down Christmas decorations? I love the season, starting with Thanksgiving and straight on through to Christmas and New Year’s, but I also enjoy the symbolic fresh start that comes with a new calendar. That’s …
I have been basking in a wonderful sense of calm ever since about 7PM on 12/25/2016. I made it through another crazy stretch from Thanksgiving to Christmas and I have to say, I really pulled it all off this year. Except for two gifts that Santa misplaced. I’m sure they will turn up at some …
