Week 167! How is it in your neck of the woods? It’s been warm here, verging on hot. I am saddened by all the news of wildfires around the world. I’ve never been to Paris, but I heard one of the wildfires in France is three times the size of Paris. That is truly heartbreaking. …
The review… This is another book I read and read again. I know the ending, but I think it may go a different direction. Now, that I’m more of a knitter than when I first read this, it creates even more of the feels! My daughter read this book first, before she had kids, so …
Week 15! 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 hope this post finds you well. Holy raindrops, Batman! We just got hit with a heck of a rainstorm…thunder and lightning, too! That rain …
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 …
Just a quick update on Nigel because you’re all hearing this all the time. He’s still walking with a walker. He has asked me not to “encourage” him anymore so I’m going to abide by his wishes. I keep trying to get him to look at this like the engineer he is. I know this …
Week 166! Y’all, this girl is whupped! I took my youngest granddaughter shopping today. This was a two-fer. I take her shopping for her birthday (which was more than two months ago), but we were both busy. So, we combined back to school shopping with birthday shopping. I thought I was a marathon shopper, but …
I was a teenager at the perfect time! Why, you ask? It was the time when straight hair, parted down the center was in, baby! My hair has always been stick straight and baby fine. I am not going to bless you with school photos showing you the many iterations of bad haircuts and even …
Week 14! 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 hope this post finds you well. It seems like the world is on fire, doesn’t it? We are under a bad air advisory (my …
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 …
Week 165! Anyone else tired of talking about the weather? I surely am, but it’s the biggest thing on most everyone’s mind…other than the World Cup. I used to love to play soccer, but I admit I haven’t watched a single game. I think it Spain against Argentina. Do you have a favorite in this …
