I was bitten by the photography bug less than a year ago. In that time I have read countless photoblogs, perused many books and tried to squeeze any bit of information I can out of anyone who knows anything about photography. It’s a slow process, but I’m determined to get better. Last Christmas I did […]
For those of you here in the States, I hope you enjoyed a very restful holiday weekend. Did you do a lot of cooking? Lounging? Swimming? Sunning? I did all of the above. Let me just tell you, I haven’t enjoyed a holiday weekend like I did this one in a long time. It was […]
I was living in the dark ages until this year… I’ve stepped into the light and I am loving it…. the herb light, that is. Over the years, I have had a certain notion that when spring came, it was the proper choice to go to the local greenhouse and pick up some semi-mature herbs […]
Well I’m back from a whirlwind weekend get-away to the thriving metropolis of Tulsa, OK. After driving 13 hours each way, this girl was spent but it was so much fun getting to see some family and watch my dear cousin marry such a great lady… and like any good ‘ole wedding reception… there was […]

I crave salad […]
I’m officially unemployed. That’s right folks, I quit my job Thursday. It was a bittersweet day but so far I am loving my break. You know that list I’ve been talking about?? We’re adding to it and not wasting a minute of precious time. So far we have added prepping and planting the garden, painting […]
I’m off of work this morning and loving life. My morning has been spent sipping tea, writing letters and making lists. Yep, that’s right. Lists. I’m totally a list person. I have so many lists everywhere that I have to make a list just to keep them in order. If I don’t use this organizational […]
Yesterday after work, my lovely friends Mallery and Lena came over for happy hour… well sort of. We’re bringing it back… but with a twist. Those of you who know me or Lena, know that she is like 8+ months pregnant and due any day now. So Mallery concocted the idea of “mommy mojitos” from a […]
