What? Me?
I fell off the blogging bandwagon again. Have been spending my evenings working on powerpoint presentations and mailing lists. Not really good blog material. “Look, it’s an excel spreadsheet!” just doesn’t hold a candle to crafty things in the blog spectrum. I’m growing lots more gray hairs. Eek! I don’t think I’ll ever dye my hair. No [...]

19. February 2010
The homeless kitten has been adopted by a super sweet couple! It’s been an intense couple of weeks between the homeless kitten, no heat, searching for an apartment in NYC, doing my taxes, etc. I am zonked. Z.O.N.K.E.D. I feel like I could sleep for a week – but my mind just won’t shut off. I [...]

16. February 2010
The other day our neighbor frantically pounded on our door. He thought Penny had gotten out. Wasn’t Penny, but there was a sweet lost kitten running around. I scooped up the little bugger before she ran into the street. Now, we need to find a home for this snow kitten. HOMELESS SNOW KITTEN! I contacted SEVEN shelters. All full. All refused. This [...]

Penny & Tucker are sprucing each other up. They want send you ganache kisses for Valentine’s Day!

4. February 2010
Last night I went out for beers with a bunch of suppa-creative girls from the world of Publishing & Television. We were out quite late (ouchie, my head). Everyone brought a bag of crafty supplies that they nolonger wanted. You know, scraps of fabric, ribbon, yarn, fancy papers, trim, books, etc. and we sorted through [...]

17. January 2010
Cannelle Patisserie. Heaven. Love. Butter. Macaron. Napoleon. Croissant. Chocolate. Baguette. Choux Chantilly. I had the chocolate croissant and a macaron. We bought a baguette for later. Yum! Next time, I’m all about the choux chantilly…or the napoleon…or…well. You know. Another chocolate croissant. For lunch I’m going to use their baguette to try and recreate the sandwich I had at Le Grenier de Felix in Paris. Roast chicken, [...]

16. January 2010
I love good tote bags. I bet I own 15. Really. It’s bad. Perhaps I need a 12 step program? Penny too. She especially loves the LL Bean totes I have. The minute one of the bags is empty – or slight empty – she hops in. LL Bean should just stop manufacturing & marketing pet beds. What discriminating cats [...]

15. January 2010
One of my resolutions was to take more on-the-fly cellphone pics. This morning I took 3 pictures. The first picture is of a pile of walnuts (I think…) in a ditch. The park near us is filled to the brim with walnut trees. Park workers were raking them up and bagging them. Enormous bags of walnuts [...]

6. January 2010
Is it just me? I feel like I spend too much time trying to organize things. I know this is normal – especially now. Every January everyone wants to start the year off fresh. That said, I feel like I’m constantly organizing papers and bits and bots and cats. Too many projects and interests I suppose. Yesterday I [...]

31. December 2009
I proclaim 2010 the year of the mini dessert! To be honest, that kicked off 4Q 2009. With all the mini pie madness, mini banana bread and the chicken pot pies (not a dessert but totally delish!) it clearly has to continue into the new year. I think 2010 is going to be the year of [...]

26. December 2009
I took these two pictures on Christmas Eve with my iphone. Totally untouched. Isn’t the light wild? The trees on the island across the way were so golden in the light that I had to run outside and freeze my tootsies to take these. I also love when the river is frozen. Remember my beret bender? This [...]

10. December 2009
I fell off the blogging wagon again. Oops. Anyway, been around. Yanno, here & there. We went down to Florida for 4 days to escape the cold. So nice and sunny and hot! There was a little rain, but we didn’t let it dampen our good time. Did I mention the convertible? I’m still working on [...]

Overstock.com Failed Memories…
3. December 2009
I bought a digital camera for a friend for Christmas. This friend has been especially helpful to me this year and I know she desperately wants a camera. Voila. Perfect gift to say “thank you and YOU ROCK”. Cameras need memory cards so I ordered a memory card from Overstock.com to go with the camera. [...]

1. December 2009
Morten is ready to roll. He had some constructive criticism regarding my wrapping style. What can I say? Wrapping isn’t my thing – at least not in large quantities. Bet you didn’t know that round thing down below is a basketball! OK, you probably did know that was a basketball. Each kid ended up with about [...]
Continue reading...The Flumps
29. November 2009
I have a case of the flumps, in case you hadn’t noticed. Flump. Flump. Flump. Just been blue for a bit. Flump. I’m hopeful I’ll find my zip again, it’s probably just stuck in the couch cushions or something. Flump. My only accomplishment over the last 4 days was cleaning out a cabinet. Flump. Penny says [...]
