Pumpkin Nail Art Design

With Thanksgiving rapidly approaching (WHERE did November go, by the way?!), I was giving some thought to my Thanksgiving outfit and subsequently my Thanksgiving nails! A couple of years ago, I rocked these SUPER easy pumpkin nails for our city’s annual Fall Festival, and think I will likely do them for this Thursday as well!

Vintage Hat Crochet Pattern

One of my favorite things to buy when I head to the bookstore with Husband is crafting and crochet magazines. A few months ago I bought “Love of Crochet” magazine’s Fall issue and in it was a Vintage Hat pattern that I have used a ton of times already. I’m not kidding- I’ve made 7 of these hats already! They are SUPER easy and work up very quickly, so I can knock one out in under two hours, making them fantastic Christmas gifts. Continue reading Vintage Hat Crochet Pattern

Usually my Wednesday posts involve just a quote, or nothing but a pretty photo, but today is a bit different!

He saw someone post it from SheKnows and he knew I’d like it- and he was right. Continue reading Words For Wednesday: Hot Chocolate!

Wordless Wednesday: Birthday

Wordless Wednesday: Birthday

Monday was my birthday (yay!), so I spent the whole weekend and Monday celebrating, and plan to continue throughout the week. Over the weekend, Husband and I went to two craft shows, the bookstore, Sephora for makeup, shopping for clothes and to countless places to eat. We ended our binge of eating-things-we-shouldn’t-but-it’s-okay-because-it’s-my-birthday with a chocolate lava cake on Monday night. We couldn’t finish it because it was too decadent and we were stuffed from dinner, but it definitely hit the spot! Now I just have to find a good recipe for it to try it at home…

What desserts do you like to have when celebrating your birthday?
