Style Imitating Art comes from Salazar, Terri, and Shelbee. You can think of it as fashion meets art museum! Style Imitating Art 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. Every other Monday one of the three selects an inspiration piece …
How are things in your neck of the world? We’ve actually had the furnace on several days. The days are warm, but the nights are cool enough for the furnace to kick on. We have a programmable thermostat so there’s none of that constant moving it up and down. I set up a schedule, and …
In February, I joined the fabulous 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 this year, Suzy from The Grey Brunette, Sue from Living Well after 50, Leslie from Once Upon a Time, Happily Ever After and I joined in on the fun permanently! I chose this month’s prompt, and …
Speaking from experience… Last week, I mentioned I had gone to a women’s retreat but had to leave early. I was very lucky another woman had come and was only staying for the day. Once I saw her and realized the ramifications, I was so relieved. You’re probably wondering why, right? I didn’t double check! …

I was not going to talk about the weather, I promise. I wasn’t, but then it changed so dramatically. Last Monday, we had the air conditioning on. Nigel turned the furnace on Thursday or Friday…just to see if it was working! We have had very cool days in the 50s (10C) and lows in the …

Did you ever wonder why October wouldn’t be the eighth month? I mean octo- means eight, right? Just like our friend, September, October once had a different spot in the calendar. The Roman calendar didn’t include January and February. Once they were added, October became the tenth month, but no one bothered to change the …
Remember… How many of you were big fans of the show, “What Not to Wear?” We didn’t have cable for many years so I could only watch when I was at my son’s or daughter’s houses. Then, I was pretty much glued to the screen…kinda like a little kid in a candy store! I always …
No coffee, though… I am one of the few people you probably “know” who doesn’t like coffee. I’ve tried to like it; I’ve even tried the flavored coffees. But, it’s just not my thing. I do love the smell of it, though. So, I don’t necessarily get excited when pumpkin spice time rolls around when …
