I love pumpkins. Â I love Duck Tape. Â I really, really love houndstooth… so it’s only natural that I would make a Houndstooth Duck Tape Pumpkin. This is so, so, SO easy to do. Grab yourself some fabulous Duck Tape and a Dollar Store pumpkin. Â Split the tape down the middle so that you have thinner […]
Make a ribbon covered globe for Halloween.
Last year I snapped up a cool old globe for 50 cents at a yard sale and I used chalkboard paint to make a Scary Places Halloween Globe. Â Well, it’s been sitting in the garage since last Halloween and I’ve been thinking about how to change it up for this year without ruining the […]
Basic emergency supplies you should keep in your car.
I had a different post on tap for today, but I am feeling antsy and wanted to get this off my chest.  I do not panic easily…  I am not a hysteric, but I firmly believe in being organized and being prepared. We have been having a lot of little earthquakes here in Southern California, and there […]
My First Pumpkin of the Season… and it’s a total Craft Fail.
It’s September! Â I am so ready to start thinking Fall! Unfortunately, I am kicking off the season with a Craft Fail. Last week I shared my big, fat feather failure… Â Well I had set some of the orange ones aside. This is what happens when you cross a pumpkin with a Muppet. Please believe me […]
Labor Day weekend wrap up. The Norco Fair
Hope everyone is having a fun Labor Day Weekend.  I shared my County Fair photos the other day, but I wanted to share a few photos I snapped at out hometown Fair this weekend.

Dude… not cool: When your child sees others bullying.
Bullies are nothing new. Â Because some high profile (and tragic) examples of bullying have been in the news recently, most schools have anti-bullying policies now. Â (Which is nice and all, as long as they don’t take it too far. Â We’ve seen that happen, and that is a story for another day.) In my experience, the […]
A county fair… bad food, bad prizes and good fun.
Did you go to a county fair this summer? My neighbor Melissa said in an Instagram upload, that a county fair is the Olympics of People Watching. Â Oh, amen to that. It’s also the Olympics of Fried Food. It’s also the home of giant food… All. Kinds. Of. Wrong. And if you’re going to eat […]
Hanging out on the patio.
We love entertaining, and our parties and dinners are often held on our patio. Â I love getting ready for these events and making everything look special. Â But I also love to sit quietly and enjoy the morning sunshine with a cup of coffee too. I feel like I am always so rushed. Â So even though […]

Keep your wine the perfect temperature. (Frozen grapes make great ice cubes.)
I might have mentioned previously that I enjoy wine.  Very much.  I don’t consider myself a wine snob, but it is important to me that wines are served in their appropriate glasses and at the proper temperature. My mom is an ice cube abuser.  She wants her drinks cold, even if it means she is diluting […]
