I decided to be a little trendy today and embrace the colors of Fall 2008 … in my blog headers. Thrilling? Not so much, but a change of pace for all.
This year’s forecast has the popular jewel tones, but also includes some classic rustic undertones. And I’m in love with ochre… [...]
This is a warning to all future visitors: you may be asked to assist in projects during your stay. Dad M was out for a short weekend visit from the east, and decided to tackle our molding project with Mr. M on Sunday. They measured and painted and sanded and mitered… and in the [...]
1) make my hair cut look this adorable
2) work it in red and black — with red tights being essential

There is something highly intriguing about a gray pumpkin…

Yesterday was a long, but happy day trip to “the city.” And look what I got to enjoy!!!
It’s a Black Forest Original Ice Blended (yes… I went for the whip even!) filled with chunks of chocolate covered espresso beans and cherries. Pure heaven, and the true reason that the ‘Buck will [...]
[the Hippo herd from NoseyNest]
Did you know that there was a place in cyberspace completely devoted to those bubbling blowing, ear wiggling. cuddly creatures known as Hippos? I was completely unaware until I ran across the link today from the NoseyNest, and now I’m just wondering how to contain the cuteness. And [...]
