I’m back in the travelling mode today as I’m heading to pick up the animals from their extended vacation on the coast. And it wouldn’t be a road trip without stopping for lunch at the infamous drink stop: Sonic!!
Have a lovely weekend everyone!
I’ve joined the Souvenir Foto school… a project on FLICKR run by the lovely Miss B of leblahg.com. There are new assignments each week, and while I’m in heavily talented company, I’m hoping to stretch my picture limits a bit with this little online class. It’s completely free to [...]
I must admit that the art of frosting a cake properly was lost on me… until I saw this post on the giver’s log. I always thought that my icing spatula or technique just sucked… but now I realize that the secret is all in the icing tip!
This kind of tip [...]
So you wanted to see how the candy buffet turned out??? Well… sadly, there wasn’t enough light at the start of the reception to take any photos of the buffet, so all I have are some photos of empty containers… which I could have also taken earlier in the day when they looked neatly [...]
Everyone seems to be perking up over the iphone this week with the new release of the 3.0 software today (voice memos are awesome!) and the new 3GS phone this weekend. It’s old news that I adore my phone (did you know that 2% of the US population owns one?!?), but what I love is [...]
While we might be deserting our pets at home, a visit to the eastern M-house provides us with some extra puppy love in the forms of Marley & Nickholas (Nicky for short). Marley (pictured above) plays the role of the silly but mostly dumb dog, which usually affords him luxuries of lobster and chocolate [...]
I love it when genius design ideas turn out so darn pretty! And this STATES UNITED print by beauchamping is no exception!

I have to admit… seeing all of the lush greenery back east over the last few weeks has really made me crave some quality gardening time of my own…
How’s your little/big/container/awesome garden doing right now?!? Any big June plans for it?!?
Did You Know…. Plastic shopping bags are
typically used less than 30 minutes and only 1 % are recycled. The
average American adult uses approximately 288 bags a year, or 22,000*
in an average lifetime…
Recycle your shirts into tote bags to replace the ones you get from the store using [...]
The “summer trip” has ended… and now the unpacking and readjusting to normal food begins. We had a wonderful time time in South Carolina, Pennsylvania & New York (as well as at two weddings), but all great trips must come to an end at some time.
So today we will resume our regular blogging [...]
…the animals will be on vacation as well.
The pets are on vacation with Mom & Dad L this week, as they graciously offered to pet-sit in our absence. But all these photos that they are sending doesn’t quite make it look like we’re very missed…
Basse has found his way to the [...]
Yesterday was spent on the island of Manhattan… and filled with lots of food and music. Thanks to the foresight of a very wise musical theatre junkie (that would be Father M), we had tickets to see both 2009 Tony award winning musicals: HAIR (best revival of a musical) and Billy Elliot (best new [...]
