Stripes: only slightly less of an obsession than polka dots and lace. This has been my favorite maxi dress this summer. It's so soft and breezy, and just plain easy to wear. This is what I wore yesterday around the house, out running errands, and then to a...
Linking up with one of my wonderful sponsors, Amy of The Charming Blog, for this month's 10 on 10. All time favorite band? This is tricky. My music tastes have changed a bit over the years. Um, for sheer longevity of fan-ness, I'd have to go with either Ben Folds...
Today marks exactly 3 years since Ian and I first met, and I thought I'd share that story since it almost didn't happen. We had actually 'met' before that online (yes, we're one of those eHarmony couples - my mom keeps saying we should do a commercial for them), and...
I'm linking up with Lena for this week's Tuesday 10. This week's 'theme' was Blogger's Choice, and I decided to steal a theme from weeks previous that I missed and do 10 things I love about the place I live. So, here are my: It's a big city (population-wise) that...
This past month I participated in the Thrifty Love gift exchange run by Carina. She paired everyone up, and then we exchanged notes on what we liked to thrift shop for, and went to town. The idea was to find something you thought your thrifty partner would love, and...
Tigana by Guy Gavriel Kay This was the first time I'd read this author even though I'd seen his books on shelves for years, and now I'm wondering why I waited to so long to give him a chance. This was a quality fantasy read. A intricate, interwoven plotline; complex...
Most (if not all) designers are font junkies. I am no exception. The number of fonts I have installed on my computer can be measured in hundreds, not dozens. Free font sites make it so easy to feed that addiction. Today I thought I'd share with you some of my current...
Current Book: Naamah's Blessing by Jacqueline Carey. This one's been sitting by the wayside forever, because I know something bad is about to happen in the book and I don't want to read that part, haha. Current Playlist: Nothing. I don't listen to music while I work,...
Yes, that's right. My polka dot obsession has reached a new high - polka dot denim shorts! Found these at Kohl's the other week, and fell in love. They're lightweight, a great color combo, the perfect length... it was meant to be. And, um, related to that,...
Seriously considering this: Piano Adoption. And also just thrilled it exists. Critical is Sexy. I agree, wholeheartedly. Interesting read: Why do we hate seeing photos of ourselves? The Best Birth Control In The World Is For Men. This needs to get vetted by a medical...
