Since it seems that today is going to be much busier than I originally thought, and I don’t know when I’ll actually be able to sit down and string together more than 15 words, I’ll let Boring Office Guy have the floor, so he can tell you all about his (day trip) vacation:

I never showed you this fabric that arrived a few weeks ago. I got a fantastic deal on the three colors of jersey and the Irish linen on the bottom. $2/yard or less, if I remember correctly. It made the $16/yard price tag on the top fabric much easier to swallow. That top fabric is […]

I checked the poll several times while it was going, and two contenders were neck in neck the entire time, almost always separated by only one vote.

Ok, so I was in the Tea aisle at Target a few days ago, and I saw a few varieties of Tazo that I hadn’t tried before. Since I was in Impulse Buy Mode (as I often am at Target), I put them into my cart. Last night, I decided to try the purple one: […]

Or old-fashioned lack of interest? Just curious… not fishing for comments or anything… seriously. Just wondering why the blog has seen so little activity this past week.

In fact, I find them cozy and enjoyable, if I can experience them curled up by the window in a pair of handmade lounge pants, drinking a cup of cinnamon spice tea, nibbling a pumpkin […]

Say hello to the eleven finalists from the past year of Color Challenges (there are only eleven because March and April were merged into one contest). I thought it would be fun to chose a “Best of Show” kind of winner. And what does the lucky winner receive? Well, besides fame, acclaim, and the adoration […]

Allow me to introduce you to the finalists, before I reveal the winner: Black/white with a dab of red., by pcbysusan Krrrinoo_face, by revoluzzza seasoned […]

I know it’s cliche to say, but time really does fly. Hard to believe it’s already August. The first day of August brings with it a few tasks, such as judging the last Color Challenge, taking down my library display, changing the blog header, and remembering to call my parents for their anniversary. But since […]
