One of my favorite crafty blogs is “Wee Wonderfuls.”  Everything Hillary Lang makes is absolutely darling and she also has a store where you can buy her adorable little doll and embroidery patterns.  Here are a few that I love:

I finally broked down and bought a pattern for these precious little bunnies… they melted my heart with their [...]

As far as birthdays go, this one was great -flowers, balloons, cake, cookies, cards, hugs, well-wishes: I felt very loved. (which is the very best birthday gift.)

I was thinking today about twenty-seven – what I want out of it and what it might hold for me.  It made me really excited.  Because even though life can be [...]

One of the things on my “Bucket List” is to complete an eating challenge, like Adam Richman on “Man vs. Food.”  (We are obsessed with that show!)  Last year, I made two attempts:
Attempt #1: The Ohio Deli’s Dagwood Sandwich – a 2.5 pound  sandwich with a pound of fries that must be downed in 30 [...]

My parents (and Pete & Gracie – the most awesome dogs in Ohio) came for a weekend visit to celebrate my birthday (March 29th) and my dad’s birthday (March 25th).  We had a fun weekend… we ate good food, watched “Secretariat”,  went on some walks around the neighborhood, did a little bit of shopping, exchanged gifts, [...]

There’s a quote from Winnie the Pooh that goes, “Nobody can be uncheered with a balloon.”
I think it should go, “Nobody can be uncheered with a cupcake.”

As I was making birthday cupcakes for my co-worker this morning, I opened my carton of eggs to find this sweet reminder:

“This is the Day which the Lord has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it.”
- – Psalm 118:24

I’m really excited about gardening this year.  I think it will be a really fun hobby and I’m also looking forward to all the fresh food we’ll be able to enjoy. Last year, I did just a little bit of gardening (some tomato & pepper plants and herbs in pots on our front stoop), but [...]
