Last night we went to Holiday Nights at Greenfield Village. It is my number one favorite thing to do. I love history and being able to envision what things were like hundreds of years ago energizes me. Gina and Garrett joined us this year and it was lots of fun. We went to every house … More Holiday Nights
I love Gossip Girl. I’ve been a fan since day one. Surprisingly, a very rational fan. I love the show but I don’t own it on DVD, I don’t go to fansites or write fanfiction. I’ve just genuinely enjoyed my Monday nights because of it. Queen Blair Waldorf is a fashion icon for me. The name … More XOXO oh no
Yesterday, Danny and I took to the road to visit Lindsey and Brett’s new baby girl, Gwenyth. She’s a cutie and has that wonderful new baby scent. I look forward to many late night Saturdays with her. It was the first time either Danny or myself visited a newborn at the hospital and we were … More Baby Girl Gwen
Friday I tried my first Pinterest inspired arts and crafts project. I’m giving it to B for Christmas. She’ll take the Michigan mug with her and I’ll keep the Oregon mug. It’s a really easy project to to try and pretty affordable too. 2 Mugs (Target $3.50 each) Permanent marker ($4) Scissors Tape Printed image … More As Seen On Pinterest
From our relationship Danny has picked up many of my habits. One such habit is giving gifts before the designated date. I’ve improved in this area but he’s getting worse. lol Last night he gave me a Tiffany blue box and inside was a pair of glass mittens ornament for our tree. He wanted to … More Christmas Surprise
It’s Cookie Exchange day at work. A favorite activity among my co-workers. I’m impressed with the loot this year; however, I’m surprisingly optimistic that I won’t eat it all before I get home. That’s a good thing because Danny’s been clued in on the fixings and he wants some. My contribution was an Oreo Truffle Brownie. It’s … More Annual Cookie Exchange
As promised here’s the fantastic meatloaf recipe. It’s the best meatloaf I’ve ever had but I’m admittedly biased. One, Mom’s meatloaf recipe is seasonless and she layers ketchup and American cheese on top – which I hate. Two, it’s quite possibly the first recipe I ever tried. Way back in the day (like 3 years … More My Favorite Meatloaf
I’ve been going to fanfiction.net ever since the internet was invented. At least it feels that way. I’ve made a handful of contributions. They’re mostly horrible. Some are REALLY horrible and I’d remove them except the historian in me won’t let me. So instead I take solace in the fact no one else is reading … More Aeternus Eternus
One of my favorite bloggers, Sharon at NYC Taught Me, posted today about the company Hello Fresh. It’s similar to Door to Door Organics in that food gets delivered to your doorstep. The difference is that Hello Fresh does not appear to be organic and instead of just delivering food products it provides three complete … More Hello Fresh
Running Shoes: I’m back to running and my current shoes are worn out and in desperately need to be replaced. Martini Glasses: We have glasses for everything except my favorite cocktail. Some signature Sex and the City glasses would be perfect. Ben & Jerry’s Cannoli ice cream: My two favorite desserts combined = perfection but … More Christmas List
