I slept a lot this week. I think I’m trying to keep the CRUD I’m exposed to every weekend at bay with loads of sleep through the week … Maybe??? Anyway – I slept a bunch. And kept cooking to a minimum with Spinach Artichoke Ravioli and a crockpot full of Golumpki, with bushels of …
That’s how my week felt, creatively speaking. I struggled with card making, but finally got a miserly-few made. I stamped these pretty layered dahlias. And then had no clue how to pull the backgrounds together. I’m not a huge fan of patterned paper, but I was eventually able to decide on four. I did …
DH and I quietly rolled into 2019 with a new family member. Meet Giorgana … or Georgie, for short! She’s 5 months old, and such a sweetheart! The bulldog gang, along with the rest of the crew have already bonded… And Chloe likes to ‘mother’ her! And, I’m cleaning and reorganizing the studio, with a …
Wrapping up Christmas 2018 with lil Sis … Who is HOME! And she’s snuggling with the bulldog pups (Pignacious and Clyde) … As promised, a couple of cute photos of the Neo babies, just after bath time! We’re starting the transition to kibble … baby steps! I did a bit of coloring, starting on my …

Just like that – Thanksgiving is over; We had a recipe-FAIL; and I’m missing a decent portion of the tip of my thumb. VOILA! For a hot second, DH was ‘proud’ of himself for pulling together Artichoke Spinach Pinwheels … the link shows you what they should have looked like. Our version was HUGE, with …
Of turning 29 … Yep, that’s what I celebrated this week. I’ve spent the last several years avoiding specific numbers, while I slowly acknowledge – and am just about ready to – fully gear-up – and possibly embrace … turning 50 (read: F.I.F.T.Y; “The BIG 5-0”!!!) … Yeah, sure … IN ANOTHER 363 days. It’s …
And a little of that. This week in review: Starting with this super-cute pic of my sisters. Makes me smile every time I look at it … AWWW – they LUV each other! I spent a bit more time cleaning and organizing the studio … or trying to, anyway. Here is my storage for card …
