This Week's Color

The return of Lilacism. For Easter, you know? Plus I like that it makes my nails look like jelly beans.

Thank You, Pinterest!

Somehow, even though my refrigerator looks like this...

... I had on hand all of the ingredients for this.

Thank you, Pinterest! You've a starving writer's savior.

This Week's Color: Playing Catch Up

Last week's color: Bobbing for Baubles

This week's color: Don't Sweater It

I highly recommend both.

Better Late Than Never

It's officially 2013, and I hope that you all had a wonderful holiday season.

I spent it in Maryland with J, driving him crazy, creating some amazing memories, and falling even more in love.

I know. Gross.


(Context: J. reformatted my computer after I maxed out the hard drive with seventeen seasons of the Real Housewives, and he erased iPhoto in the process. For a melodramatic few minutes, I thought he had deleted all of my photos. He hadn't. I downloaded a new version of iPhoto and all was fine. iMovie, however, is a goner. Much to his singing chagrin.)

To Fresh Starts, To New Beginnings

My resolution this year is to stay in better touch with family and friends. Ideally this includes you. And this blog.

Happy New Year, friends. May it bring you happiness and health.

This Week's Color

How's It Snowin'?

I confessed something to J. tonight that only my closest friends know: as much as I try to hide behind the wardrobe of a forty year old soccer mom, I love me some sparkle. Unfortunately (fortunately?) I can only get away with it in Vegas and while celebrating a new year.

Last Week's Color

Head Mistress.

It made my nails the color of cranberries. Perfect for the holiday season.
