Button Sunday
It’s Super Bowl Sunday! I couldn’t find a funny football button, so I went with a good non sequitur button. On the television: the game. On the table: the crack dip with Wheat Thins, chips, veggie platter and ranch dressing. … Continue reading
Cupcake, anyone?
I made these for Lindsey’s birthday last Friday. Notice the hearts on the baking cups. And the little heart throws on the cake plate. And when I was putting on the sprinkles, without wearing my glasses, sprinkles I had also … Continue reading

Yesterday was Lindsey’s birthday–the last year of her twenties. Since it’s Craft Night, The Brides, and Kathy S will be joining Tom, Tim, and me for some birthday festivities. I’m so glad I have a home where people–and dogs!–are willing … Continue reading

Crafty Christmas
Just a few crafty things I did during the holidays… My sister wrote a story for one of her granddaughters about a little gnome, and she wanted to give her one for Christmas who’d be like the gnome in the … Continue reading

Since Tim is away taking care of Tucker the dog, among others, and didn’t get to do a Rex Tuesday, I’m featuring an edging-ever-nearer-Christmas-dinner Rex. It’s so pointless; he doesn’t get fed from the table. But Rex is a living … Continue reading
