Can you believe what J pulled yesterday? Shameful. Don’t worry, lovelies, I have no such tricks up my sleeve. I will go on record and say that my uterus is completely empty. Actually I don’t think they are supposed to be completely empty……..Ahem. Anyway, that is enough about that.
To make up for her shenanigans I [...]

Anyway, guess what, Homagians? (that’s an ugly word – we’ll think of a better one) – I won a giveaway at the awesome Indie Fixx a little while ago. And now, this gorgeous bag by drika.b is soon to be in my arms:
If that isn’t a bundle of [...]

Check out this house near my parents’ – these photos don’t really do it justice (G was using our point-and-shoot in the dark, and my father almost ran over him in the process…..) The lights and, um……decor…….are on all sides of the house. Now THAT’S Christmas decorating!
Don’t burn your retinas,

Nothing says Christmas like fudge!
Maybe I should have started with this photo:
That’s better
A. and I made it to my hometown for our family Christmas – and just in the nick of time. Ice and upwards of 17 inches of snow are predicted! Thankfully, all my siblings and their spouses made it too, so [...]

Every year I encounter the same Christmas-decor dilema. It stems from my deep love for Christmas ornaments (and, let’s face it, all things shiny) combined with an affinity for clearance racks.

My FAVORITE part of Christmas is wrapping presents. Correction, making the bows. I have an entire dresser filled with ribbon (it may border on [...]
