This little ringlet scarf made out of old t-shirts is so fun for fall! There’s no sewing involved (hallelujah!), and you can make it while sitting in front of the TV in less time than it takes to watch a really good, trashy show on E. Since I have an abundance of orange and blue […]

Candles.

I can’t even be trusted at the grocery store anymore. A few weeks ago I was minding my own business, strictly adhering to the list, when what do I notice between the Cheerios & peanut butter?

How Sea Lions are Like Boston Terriers

Or vice versa. They yawn. Really BIG yawns. They scratch. And snuggle. …when forced. They play bitey face. But without the big teeth. They love a good sun spot. Just like BTs. They like to swim. Oh… And bounce big rubber balls on their noses. Sea lions do that, right? ______________________________ Tomorrow I’ll be in […]
