Style Imitating Art… Welcome back for my interpretation of a beautiful piece of art. Salazar, Shelbee, and I are the curators. You can think of this series as fashion meets art museum! SIA challenges people to find inspiration in different art works, create looks based upon that art work, and share them with the curator for …
Nigel update: Still walking with a walker, but the surgeon gave us a bit of a timeline. We’re looking at a year of recovery because this wasn’t just an ordinary hip replacement. And, you know what? I’m OK with that because we can sort of plan for that. I do know there aren’t any cat …
Week 164! You are not going to believe this. I actually had this post done and scheduled to post last night! Then, for some reason, I realized yesterday was Wednesday so I hurried up and cancelled both it and the email. Anyway, it’s time for the Weekend Traffic Jam Reboot! I am always aiming for …

Just a note… Today (Wednesday, July 8) is my fifth blogoversary! I didn’t think I’d make it through one year let alone five. I wish I could say I have hundreds, if not thousands, of subscribers, but I remain a teeny tiny blogger. And, that’s OK because I’ve made some really good connections with people …
Week 12! Welcome back for this week’s edition of the Fashion Files, hosted by Amy and me! If you don’t know Amy, her blog is Coffee and Cocktails at the Casa. I can’t believe we’ve been doing this for a little over three months! If you’re a fashion blogger, this is the place to be. It’s …
I don’t like the Fourth of July. There, I said it. As I type this, I’m hoping all the fireworks and whatever have been used up. It rained and stormed on the Fourth, but that didn’t stop people in the neighborhoods around us from shooting off theirs. Legally, they can start the day before and …
Style Imitating Art… It’s time for another round of Style Imitating Art! A few years ago, I joined Shelbee and Salazar as curators for SIA. We begin with a piece of art, create looks based upon that art, and share them on our blogs. Think of it as fashion meets art museum! Anyone and everyone is welcome and encouraged …
A book review… Erin, Lisa, and Cat host A Good Book and A Cup of Tea Monthly Bookish Blog Party each month. Life continues on here at Haus der Mitte. In case you don’t know, or haven’t been around from the start, my maternal grandparents came from good German stock, on both sides, I believe. …
Week 163! Can you believe it’s July? The weather certainly feels like July…hot and sticky like molasses you left out on the counter, spilled on the floor, and tried to walk through! But, I still feel like I should be getting Valentine’s chocolates! This year is just speeding away for me. How about the rest …
