I am so thankful for education. I was looking after a wee baby in the nursery on Sunday and I was, once again, blown away by what strange creatures we humans are. We are so helpless as babies and even as children. Simple, basic things and we can’t handle them on our own – eating, … More Thankful Thursday – School
Blogging is a funny thing. It’s a good thing, but it’s kind of strange. Blogging has turned into a career for many people, it has garnered international attention and bloggers are seen as a force to be reckoned with. Companies seek blogger’s opinions, endorsements and appearances. I think this is all great and definitely opening … More Words on Wednesday – I’m Back…
It’s been a while since I did a Fashion on Friday post so hold on to your hats, I’ve got several outfits to post. I can’t actually remember when I wore any of them. It was definitely before we had 2 feet of snow visit us last weekend! These first photos are only of some … More Fashion on Friday – February 14, 2014

The two options were a mason jar pump dispenser and a photo to canvas … More Make it Monday – Photo to Canvas Transfer
A couple of catch up outfits today from our cold snap a while back. I’m not sure what happened to our winter, it seems to have passed us by for now, but I’m hoping it will come on back and stay for a spell. I love this dress I got from ASOS. I love ASOS … More Fashion on Friday – January 17, 2014
Over the holiday season I stocked up on a couple of hams when they were super cheap – 99 cents a pound? Yes, please. That means that when I cook one up, we’ll pretty much be eating off of it for a week. We had the ham when I first cooked it and then we … More Tasty Tuesday – Ham and Corn Soup
One of the things I love about the Christmas season is works dos. Both Colin’s company and my work have fun parties that are suitable for dressing up. We live in a very casual town so there aren’t a lot of opportunities to truly dress up. Both of the dresses that I wore are from … More Fashion on Friday – Party Frocks
I’ve often said that being a grown up is hard work. There’s a lot of adulthood that’s not much fun. Not that it’s bad or tragic, it’s just that it’s hard work. Paying bills, making wise choices (or trying to), making sure the kids are fed and watered, tidying the house (everyday – can you … More Thankful Thursday – Growing Up
