A Fun Book Club Challenge

Today I spent most of the day sitting on my living room couch.  The windows were cracked open and a nice gentle breeze filled the air.  Beside me was a nice tall glass of iced sweet tea and in my hands… the current Fiskateer Book Club selection, Death Swatch by Laura Childs.

I introduced this great scrapbook mystery […]

One order of Apronology with a side of Apron Lace Border Punch, coming right up!

A few weeks ago, I was at the “Tie One On” event in Dutch Flat and I had the most wonderful time meeting everyone there including Jenny Doh, the Editor-in-Chief & Director of Publishing of Stampington & Company.  She was there to talk about Stampington’s latest publication, “Apronology” and I don’t think I’ll ever look […]

Forget American Idol

I think my fear of sewing comes from when I was about 7 years old.  My older sister had a sewing project for school and one day I was home alone with the sewing machine.  I can remember looking at the machine and trying to figure out how it worked.  Was the needle really sharp?  […]

It all started bright and early Saturday morning with some yardwork.  We seem to have more than the usual amount of weeds this year and now I think I know why.

Peer Pressure

Normally I would frown on peer pressure and I would swear I was pretty good at resisting it but if you’ve noticed less of me in the general message board comments in the mornings (Rebecca called me this morning to see if I was okay!), it’s because I have finally caved.  A few of my […]
