Bullet Journals, Only Love Today & Take Flight

February 7, 2017 by Elaine

You know what is really cool? Paper. (It’s also cool when two random people in your life say you look like you’ve lost weight, within a week’s time. Just sayin’.) Anyway, I’ve always liked paper. To save, to cut, to write on, to tear, to use to draw or glue or paint on. Paper rocks….

I’m Giving Something Away – A Wood Watch!

June 22, 2014 by Elaine

I have not worn a watch in YEARS. The battery died in a lovely watch Tim gave me for an anniversary or a birthday many moons ago (I cannot remember, sorry honey, I do not have a memory like an elephant like you…) and I never got it replaced.  So, I just stopped wearing a…

You need some Fresh Produce!

June 27, 2012 by Elaine

I have this thing about clothes.  They need to be comfortable AND fashionable.  Gone are the days where I want anything too tight or too funky that it makes me look silly. But, I also do not plan on becoming Mrs. Frumpy Frumperson any time soon (or ever). When I got an email from Fresh…

Lunchbox Love (A Giveaway Too!)

August 31, 2011 by Elaine

The B Man takes his lunch to school every single day.  I can count the times he has eaten the school lunch on one hand.  Actually, I can make a “Peace” sign with the fingers. 😉 So, I pack his lunch every single morning. When he first started school two years ago he wasn’t completely…

Mat Kearney and Young Love

August 25, 2011 by Elaine

“You Can Count on Me” are some pretty powerful words when you think about it.  And I like to say them and hear them. And I also hear the kids say “Hey Mama” A. LOT. Perhaps that’s why these are two of my favorite songs on Mat Kearney’s new album, Young Love. When I popped…

One of my favorite things to wear in the summer are casual sun dresses.  I have a few already that I wear every year but I’m always looking for new ones to add to my collection plus I like ones that are versatile and I can also wear to church and maybe even out to…

Hair Accessories for Her & Me – Coco Penny

June 20, 2011 by Elaine

A few weeks ago I tweeted that I was looking for some new hair accessories for K to wear in her hair.  I had some cute ones from an Etsy shop but many of them have come unglued and I wasn’t too happy with the quality. Thankfully, Tracy was there for me.  She does have…

What? A Croc? (Crocs™ Review)

February 14, 2011 by Elaine

I’m just gonna start off by admitting that I’m not a fan of the original Crocs™. I think they are SUPER DUPER comfortable but the look of them has never done anything for me. So… when I heard from someone with the Crocs™ company a few weeks ago, asking if I would like to try…
