This week was crazy for me, with doctor’s appointments, dental appointments, one emergency root canal, and 4 websites all going live at work. (Did I mention I’m the ONLY web/graphic designer there? That’s what non-profit means. Understaffed =D ) But I survived it all. I didn’t, however, get a chance to invite nearly as many people to theRead more

Just yesterday I had the distinct pleasure of joining the ladies of my family at a Baby shower for my cousin Dan and his wife Becky. They are having a little girl whom they plan to name Natalie Marie. I was SO EXCITED to go shopping for girl baby shower gifts! There have been aRead more
This week has been a wistful one. After months of being calorie conscious I’ve been REALLY craving some indulgent sweets. Also, as it edges ever closer to summer (which appears to be coming unwillingly here in Michigan) my head’s been dreaming of new furniture, adorable tea-scapes, fantastic new home decor and out-door parties. This wistfulness I’m sure has beenRead more

The summer season means a lot of pot lucks for me. Family gatherings, graduation parties, work outings and miscellaneous other picnics. And I’m not ashamed to say that sometimes, I get rather behind. That means that the night before I have to present some amazing treat to wow the masses – I’m panicked, rushing, and usually pretty grouchy.Read more
This week has been a hectic one. Drama and emergencies at work, clutter and mess piling up at home, and hardly any time to myself. No time except the 2-3 minutes of Pinterest, Facebook, or Google Reader I snatch here and there on my phone or on my work computer. I know, I know, shameRead more

I think I’ve started writing this post 15 times already. I just can’t put my feelings about my mom down in words. Everything I write sounds so trite and overdone. “She supported me, raised me, taught me…” It’s difficult to describe a person’s influence on you when it has been so vast. Moreover, its notRead more
There’s a special kind of bond you get in art school. Every one of your classmates watches while you struggle, bare your secrets, produce your proudest pieces- not to mention stay up for 3 days straight before final projects are due. I have to admit that sometimes I miss it. In my job I’m the onlyRead more
