Charming charms

I was so excited when I got home and found a package waiting for me. I had heard a lot of buzz from different bloggers about Kelly Snelling and Ruth Rae’s book, A Charming Exchange. I knew by looking at the cover that I needed to get my hands on it as soon as I [...]

Mosaic party

My friend Dawn introduced me to this monthly art group. We met on Saturday at Sandy’s (Sandy, do you have a blog?) who gave instruction on how to do a mosaic project. She was so generous with her supplies and knowledge. I had such a wonderful time. Just look at the most beautiful creations everyone [...]

My latest rant

I met Steve for lunch today at Streets of Tanasbourne, which is just down the street from my office. He was all excited about the sale at Macy’s (yes, he likes to shop too!). So after lunch, I did a quick walk-through to see if they had any cute clothes in my size (every once [...]

Road trip recap

The trip to Cody was a lot of fun. The weather was really hot and humid. I got to do some shopping and had a couple really good meals. One was at Maxwell’s and the other was at the Rib and Chop House. We got to spend time with Steve’s family in Cody as well [...]
