Getting organized… It has been years since Nigel and I celebrated New Year’s Eve so when a tour came up, I decided to do it. This was at 2:30 which is not a widely attended time. I actually figured it would be a very slow day, but the parking lot was fairly crowded. I thought …
I’m joining Amy at Coffee and Cocktails at the Casa for this month’s “Currently” post. The idea is you fill in the blank of five participles with photos, if possible. I may skip those as y’all know how I’m worried about storage. We are finally warming up a bit here, but I think we’re taking a dip …
Style Imitating Art… Welcome back for another edition of Style Imitating Art! If you’re new to the blog, or just need a refresher, Style Imitating Art is a really cool idea pairing fashion with art. A couple of years ago, I joined Shelbee and Salazar as curators for SIA. We begin with a piece of art, create looks based …
Week 140! Boy howdy! It is beyond cold here! You know how Peter cried, “Wolf,” and, after a bit no one believed him? Well, that’s the way I’ve felt about weather forecasters the last few years when it came to snow. But, this time, my friends, they were right! Reports vary on how many inches …

Buying supplements online is easy. And this is the problem — it becomes almost too easy to get pretty much anything you need for any reason or health concern. And with products available so freely and so many companies flogging the exact same things, it’s not hard to see where people end up wasting money. …
Week 139! OK, if you live in Indiana, you can blame the encroaching snow storm on me! A big storm is on its way to us sometime Saturday. I’ve heard estimates of anywhere from 4 to 14 inches of snow! I’m guessing it will be somewhere in between. I’m just hoping it doesn’t start until …
I have always considered myself to be the eternal optimist. I refuse to see the glass half empty. Nigel, on the other hand, isn’t exactly a pessimist, but he does tend to see the glass half empty. Lately, my glass, my social tank, my attitude are at half empty, and that’s really unusual for me. …
Last January, I joined Leslie, Mireille, Joanne, Bo, and Christie to blog about our bucket lists and goals. As you all know, I pretty much stink at following through on things like this! Obviously, I’m way behind on updating this as we’re already halfway through January 2026! But, I think I did a pretty good …
