My Style: Comfortable, Hippie, Flowy, Bohemian, Jewelry-Whore (Whatever. It’s a hyphenate. It counts as one.) My Looks: Fat, Low Maintenance, T-Rex Arms My Personality: Laid Back, Friendly, Quirky, Silly That’s pretty much the nutshell version of me, but I have to admit, this was harder than I would have anticipated. I’m curious to see what everyone else […]
Okay, so clear sign I was raised Catholic…I saw the blog topic in our list and was like, wait…indulgences? Are those still a thing? Then I got a clue and realized, that no…we weren’t talking Papal Indulgences, but normal people ones. *eyeroll* Anyway…guilty pleasures and indulgences. Let me think. Well, at the risk of turning […]
If I had to pick my favorite holiday, it’s got to be Halloween. It, conveniently, happens during my favorite time of the year, too. I love making costumes and dressing up. And, of course, there’s the candy. Even more than the candy, I love roasted pumpkin seeds–and not those weird ones you can buy. Those […]
It’s another wordless Wednesday in which I’ll likely use words and generally be a rule breaker. But these are just a few pictures of things that happened this summer, places I went, people I was with and our two new kittens, Kitsune and Loki. Peonies in my mom’s garden. Of course, right after I took this […]
Okay, so it’s no secret, I hate cooking. I’m not an awful cook or anything, I just don’t like doing it. Okay, there was than one time I made some kind of orange chicken dish and even the cats wouldn’t eat it, but it was my first (and last) time using that recipe. But, without […]
I’m not sure is this is other bloggers in general or the Wednesday Random bloggers, so I’m going with the Wednesday Random bloggers since they’re some of my very best friends. I’m not using descriptors like kind or caring or supportive or any of those things, because if they weren’t, they wouldn’t be my friends. 🙂 […]
So, this week’s blog post prompt was a kind of fill in the blank thing. Then, I thought about going with writer or knitter or sewer, or cross stitcher…but I was having trouble narrowing it down. So, I finally decided on… You might be pathologically creative, if… …if you call various family members to the […]
So…I admit, while I might be a rule breaker about some things, there are a bunch of writing rules I try not to break–mostly because I don’t enjoy seeing them in other people’s writing, so I don’t want it in my own. 1.) Info dumps. Giant piles of background story have no place in […]
This month, Jess chose “Love at First Sight” by Kylie Minogue for the song inspired flash fiction piece. As usual, I hadn’t heard it, but this is what I came up with. Also, I’ll be gone this week for a family vacation to the wilds of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. We’re staying at a new place, […]
This week, the Wednesday Random Bloggers are blogging about their perfect weekend. My perfect weekend is quiet. Really quiet. I like to wake up at about 8 on Saturday. That’s the perfect time because no one else in this house will be up for hours. (Bonus if it’s raining and I can have the windows […]
