Bits & Pieces
1. It's October, which means new sponsors (check them out in the sidebar) and lots of awesome things but mostly: it's my birthday month! It should be good times here on the blog. I sat down with my planner yesterday and plotted out some fun stuff, and started thinking...
Sunday Confessions
1. I'm not sure this comes across in everyday posting (ok, maybe a little, just given the name of my blog), but I am a huge geek. As is the boy. Like, we bonded over playing World of Warcraft together when we first started dating. And, I still play The Sims 3 (though,...
Five Things Friday
1. It's amazing how productive a day can be when you get solid sleep at night. I've slept great all week, and I've gotten so much done! Quite an unusual state of affairs for this insomniac. 2. Part of my trip back home involved helping my mom go through...

New Design: Elephant

Tuesday Treasure Trove
Spring means growing things! Check out these wildflower seed bombs, and some ways to serve up tasty edible flowers. Getting a package in the mail is one of my favorite things, so I'm looking forward to getting my surprise from the Send Something Good gift swap. Why...
What I Wore: April Flowers
If you get the reference in the caption above, we can be geek friends forever. ๐ This is what I wore yesterday, for no other reason than I felt like wearing a dress. I scored this for all of $8 at Ross during a recent retail therapy session, and I am loving it. I...
