Eating Organic

Jun. 30, 2009 2 Comments Posted under: Uncategorized

Eating organic is hard. So hard that for a long time I didn’t bother. Then we found out my oldest kid is allergic to preservatives. Hello, organic.
After I wrote about the Newman’s Own coffee, I got the nicest note from the folks at Newman’s and the opportunity to try more of [...]

Magically an Adult

Jun. 25, 2009 2 Comments Posted under: Uncategorized

I’ve been watching on facebook as one of my friends counts down to her 18th birthday. I remember doing the same thing. “I’m going to be an adult and there’s nothing you can do about it,” is the gist of how my thought pattern went at that point. If it were only [...]

In 6 days, Moving Target will be available to order at eHarlequin! MT hits retail store shelves everywhere on August 11!

Bagel Love

Jun. 23, 2009 2 Comments Posted under: Uncategorized

Yesterday my kid and I were traveling and I had a bagel from Bagelheads in Pensacola, FL for lunch. A warm, toasty whole-wheat-everything bagel with yummy, creamy homemade strawberry cream cheese. It was so amazingly delicious that I’m still thinking about it and wanting another one. What that says about my thoughts [...]

Out of the Deep

Jun. 20, 2009 No Comments Posted under: Uncategorized

Two years ago this week, we moved. New town, new church, new house, new doctors, dentists, friends, schools, soccer team, choir, grocery store, drugstore, department store, bookstore, dog groomer, vet. New everything.
I was completely unprepared.
We’ve moved a bunch since I married my pastor husband nearly twenty years ago and every time [...]

Love-Hate Relationship

I love the summer. The beach is absolutely gorgeous. It stays daylight til well after seven. My kids are home. I get to fill the long days with anything and everything from coffee time to pool time to shopping to snowballs at my favorite beach place. But my favorite thing [...]

I love the Dunkin’ Donuts commercial where the woman stands on her roof and shouts, “I’ve had six cups already!” or something to that effect. That’s exactly how I feel when I find a good coffee. I do want to drink it and drink it and well, after six cups, you probably [...]

Ta-Dah!

Okay, so the project didn’t turn out exactly like I envisioned, but it’s close. I drool over a certain home furnishings catalog in which the items are priced way out of my budget. So the challenge was to create something that had a similar look but wasn’t so pricey.
There are [...]

Crafty Disaster

That should be my nickname. I have such good intentions. I buy stuff and then never finish it. So I decided that while my daughter is at camp this week that I’m going to use those six 12×12 canvasses that I bought in December (to make Christmas presents!) to make something for [...]
