Easy T-Shirt Skirts
It's tax refund time! I always love this time of year, because it comes around my birthday, too, and so I get myself a fun birthday present with our refund. This year, I got myself a new sewing machine. I don't know why - I never sew. And I already had a sewing machine that was my mom's, but it was very old. In fact, I just came across the original ( Read more... ) -

Bread, the most magical of foods.
Oh bread. I love you so much. I especially love you when you're a little crusty and chewy, toasted a bit and dipped in garlic olive oil.

Coasters
So last week, my computer completely quit on me, and I had to move to Pete's laptop. I hate working on laptops. But then on Sunday, the computer miraculously revived itself, and has been working pretty okay since then.

Pinterest Made Me Do It
I don't know if you know this about me, but I enjoy the occasional easy craft. I mostly stuck to scrapbooking and stamping in my 20's - I accumulated a mid-size collection of stamps and pretty papers, so much that I needed to buy a new cabinet to keep it all in. And then I convinced myself that I was going to start quilting, so I bought a bunch of ( Read more... ) -
People are mean.
Someone broke in to our church on Wednesday night. The good news is, they only hit two rooms before they tried the sanctuary and set the alarm off. The bad news is, they stole a laptop, two guitars, and a bass guitar from the youth room ( Read more... ) -
Best job in the world.
So, one of the best part about my job is that it leads to professional musician-type paid gigs. I just got back from accompanying a choir, and last month I played at a funeral. Granted, these jobs have been for friends, but it's experience, and it's exposure - my name is getting out there. And that's a good thing ( Read more... ) -
BSG Question for Vic or Dot
Okay, I give. I'll give in to peer pressure and try BSG. But I have a question - do I need to start with the miniseries that was on in 2003, or with Season 1?
