Julie/Julia/Suger? Project
Last week I picked up some weekly rentals. I got Julie/Julia Project, of course. I love that movie. Amy Adams is adorable. I LOVE blogging and blogs. And I love French cooking. Food, in general. It’s like a perfect storm of wonderful. The Hubby in it is a bit cute too. That helps. But this…

The old saying goes hire slowly, fire quickly. And on my blog I do something along this line with things like regular features or posts on a particular topic. Now, this won’t mean that you have to take a hatchet to something that you love and adore. But if your aim is growth of your…

Where you are, with what you have.
I’m on internet penalty overtime. I think hubby went a little overboard with the whole downloading of apps thing. Well, I’m blaming him, but it might have to do with the movie or two that I may have, possibly downloaded. So anyway, while I’m on penalty overtime I was doing a few things for the…

I was a fighter, not a lover.

A Little Bit Nautical {She Wore What}
Last week I went to Sydney to walk the catwalk. The World’s Longest Catwalk actually. And of course I put together an outfit for my wandering before and after. Something bright and nautical, of course, for the harbour side city. And I always didn’t get photos. But you see I have this amazing friend, with…
