Oh, my goodness! We had snow flurries over the weekend, and I had to cover my plants. Spring was flirting with us but has decided to play hard to get, I think. At least the sun is shining! Today is the third Thursday of March which means it’s time for an Ageless Style challenge. This …
Last year, I joined the wonderful women from Is This Mutton, MK’s Adventures in Style, Deb’s World, Grownup Glamour, and Frugal Fashion Shopper for a global writing challenge. Later, Suzy from The Grey Brunette, Sue from Living Well after 50, and I joined in on the fun permanently! Jill decided upon this month’s prompt, and I can’t wait to read the stories each …
Last week, I took part in an “exhibition interactive testing session” at the Indianapolis Museum of Art (here). I knew it was my turn to select a piece of art for the SIA challenge and was looking at a piece by one of my favorite artists, Georgia O’Keeffe. That led me to trying to find …

SIA challenges people to find inspiration in different art works, create looks based upon that art work, and share them with the curator for that piece. I chose “Breath …
Well, as I write this, Nigel has already changed the clocks for the end (or is it the beginning) of Daylight Savings Time. I honestly don’t understand the reasoning behind this. What I do know is I hated it when I was teaching. My kids had a hard time getting to sleep while it was …
It’s March, and that brings all kinds of madness to Indiana! First, there’s the weather. We hit an all time high last week (or was it earlier this week). Anyhoo, I won’t be the least bit surprised if we don’t have at least one snowfall sometime in the next couple of weeks. And, then, Indiana …
