I am way behind on blogging. I’ve been wrapped up in preparation for Artomatic and the meeting for my neighborhood association. That meeting is tonight, thank goodness, so I can move my brain onto other things!
As a true sensualist I like to take a little time to make things extra pleasurable when I’m not in [...]

Tracy and I met for “Full Afternoon Tea” at The Royal Tea Room in La Plata on Saturday. It was a lovely, long and relaxing lunch where two high-class ladies spoke of only the road conditions and the weather, as is proper.
Okay, part of that is true. We did go for tea, but we talked [...]

What is it about pink frosting that makes sweets so appealing? This cookie, which was rather large enough to share with three of my family members, was a sample I ordered ($5.95 shipping included) from a lovely little etsy shop. It was an experiment in search of something wonderful to put on the dessert table [...]

I watched this video - which also happens to be a T-Mobile commercial…and cried.
There is something about it that makes me get choked up.
The last couple of days I’ve been shedding a lot of tears. You can blame it on “Aunt Flow” if you want, but it’s more than that.
I feel alive with ideas, yet [...]

Whatever holiday you celebrate for Spring - have a wonderful day!
Happy Easter to the Christians out there, too.
I’m doing a little community service today for the joy of making the neighborhood a better place. Wish me luck and happy neighbors!

I want to be so obviously clever that somebody will call me “clever girl.” It always sounds better with a British accent, too. So, it would be extra special if somebody British said it to me.
I am bubbling with ideas right now. Too many to make happen. It’s frustrating having only this one body and [...]

My grandmother had a biopsy scheduled for today to check a lump in her breast. She ended up her day with the removal of her left breast.
I’m not sure what I can say to my grandma. I try to imagine how I would feel.
I’m just going to hope for a solid recovery from surgery - [...]

I hate those commercials that show somebody chowing down on a big fat chili dog and then taking some medication to stop the heartburn. I always yell at the tv, “Well don’t eat the chili dog!!!” But that isn’t how we operate up in here, is it? Nope, we’re a nation full of pharmaceuticals that [...]

It’s been chilly in the mornings. Sometimes I want coffee. Sometimes I want tea. Today it was herbal tea. I love the tins that the Zhena’s Gypsy Tea comes in. Even if it’s a tea flavor I probably won’t drink, if it’s in one of these tins, I will buy it. I am a sucker [...]

I had a pretty great birthday week I’d say. I did have to get a CT of my chest and an Echo of my heart, but nobody panicked and sent me to the hospital right away, so how bad could it be? I’ve been doing great on my dairy-free diet. Don’t freak out, it isn’t [...]

(”Dr. Office Blue” sets off my brown hair I think.)
I am feeling very mortal here recently. I don’t remember where or who I’ve mentioned it to - it’s likely in this blog somewhere - but I was very sick with a respiratory infection from about the first weekend in November to almost Christmas. I slept [...]

I’ve got two new pairs of stripy socks. They make me happy. I know that life is fragile and happiness can be fleeting, so I will enjoy them while I can!
I got these a Kohl’s for $1.99. They are pretty much ankle socks. But aren’t they cute? They say, “My Lucky Socks” on the sides.

I forgot to post these photos from Amber’s birthday at the end of January. The poor girl can’t have gluten and it makes for some pretty ho-hum food at times. It certainly rules out a lot of normal comfort foods like fresh baked bread and macaroni and cheese.
Over time we’ve learned to cope. I’ve made [...]

Can’t stop…ah…ah..AAAAAHHH-CHOO…sneezing. I am starting to think I have some allergies of some sort. It seems a bit odd I’d be sick again so soon after being ill for almost two months at the end of 2008. I am very very sneezy, which further makes me think it might be allergies. Benadryl is NOT working. [...]

(I collected this image from photobucket - there were many copies of it from various accounts, so I really don’t know who is the original owner of the photo).
I forgot to mention one thing that the boys could get me for my birthday. I have been eyeballing a collection of Stevie Nicks lifetime of work [...]

First off, let me say “Oh the HOTNESS” of what I am wearing right now.
A red bra?
A hot pink burlesque costume?
A corset maybe?
HAHA! Erm…nope. I am wearing my long sleeved purple nightgown, gray sweats and mis-matched stripey socks. It’s a great uniform if you’re allowed to work in it - which I am!
So after donning [...]

Something is bugging me about my blog but I don’t know what it is! Well, except maybe that the link to the post in “recent comments” is so far from the comment string that it looks like it’s the header for the next comment.
I think maybe it’s the color - I perhaps want a white [...]

I love stripey socks, but I also love chocolate. Check out the great little pile of Trader Joe’s chocolate Will gave me last week - I had to take their picture.
Aren’t they yummy looking? They are all of very dark chocolate, so they are good for me too!

Yesterday I found my Cheshire Cat stripey socks in my drawer and smiled. I put them on and it made me cheery. I <3 stripey socks.
