It used to be I didn’t want anything to do with them. They were for people into country style, people with blue checkered curtains, people like my grandma… and then something changed.

I cannot begin to tell you all how surprised and delighted I was when a dear friend sent me cookies. Not just cookies- but extra special “squillen” (aka Suzanne Quillen) cookies. This has totally boosted my mojo, and really made my weekend. Of course… I had to share with Miss Elizabeth!!!
Today I will celebrate such good […]

We did it. We officially moved Owen into a Big Boy Bed! He has one of those convertible cribs and has been jumping, rather hard and high, in it as a crib. We decided yesterday to go ahead and move him into the toddler bed version of the bed. We hadn’t moved him yet, for two […]

I had a blast buzzing around today at the Red Bee in Tustin (http://www.theredbee.com/). Karen gave me a big welcome. I had a blast with the ladies there. Such an enthusiastic group of gals that crafted the day away at the Red Bee’s Summer Scraptacular Weekend (it’s not over yet either). I taught a mini class […]

A special gift that came from owning my scrapbook store was the wonderful friends that I made from my customers. In fact, many times customers became even more than friends, they became family.

While reading Stephenie’s post, a great feeling of empathy came over me (I hope you got some good rest ladies). I understand about being a tired girl . . . I too have a very busy schedule. I work full-time from 5 a.m. to 3 p.m. (10 hour days) Monday through Thursday, have a little one, […]

As a kid I was raised on this fair. You see… I was in 4-H and every year I brought market hogs in to the fair and pretty much lived there for a full week during the show, auction, etc. So I *know* these fairgrounds. And during non-fair times I’d frequent the grounds showing my […]
