I’ve made no secret of my love for Casabella Waterstop Premium Gloves on this blog– in fact, I have proclaimed quite loudly my undying brand loyalty. Which is why, when rumblings of a Casabella Waterstop Premium Gloves shortage started, I freaked… Continue Reading
I’ve had an extra week to think about what direction I want my 2015 to take. I started out my New Year with a sinus infection which morphed into the flu (it’s reached epidemic proportions in Georgia). I hope… Continue Reading
If you read this blog with even the loosest regularity, you’ll know two of several things about me. One, that I LOVE to re-use items– like almost to an obsessive point. You will also know that I have a complicated relationship with plants. Today’s… Continue Reading

Life is all about upgrading and leveling up. Every birthday is a level up. Every job promotion a life upgrade. But, not only do upgrades apply to cell phones and technology… but also to furniture. College is really the first… Continue Reading
The high-low hem trend looks as if it is here to stay– and why not? It’s fabulous. A high-low hem is basically the mullet of design– but in a great way– with a shorter hem in front and a longer one… Continue Reading
Hope you like bug carcasses… cause today’s post has got ’em! Apologies in advance. Do you know what is amazing? Fruit. I know that’s kind of a ‘duh’ sentiment, but think about the myriad of varietals out there. As someone… Continue Reading
Faithful Reader, did you think I was trying to sweep my New Year’s resolutions under the carpet never to check in again much less attend to them in my personal life? Well, when my computer went off the deep end,… Continue Reading
30,000 feet above middle America is not normally the place to have a private dance party. I found myself, much to the chagrin of my neighbor, doing just that this past January. While flying back to California from one of… Continue Reading

As I was walking to get coffee this morning, I noticed a subtle, yet growing pain in my heel. I, then, noted the super-cute (yet, super-cheap) flip-flops I was wearing. D’oh. If you may recall, I wrote a post last summer about the desultory… Continue Reading
Whether you are waiting for the coffee to brew, an article to slowly load on your computer, a train to work, an important phone call, or your turn in line… without fail, you’re day will have some component of waiting to it. Sometimes those… Continue Reading
