I’ve been having such a hard time getting into the idea of keeping my house clean. Not that it’s ever easy for me to get there, but it’s been even harder lately. I’m thinking it may be the fault of the weather, and the fact that our heat is out of commission and the house […]

Temporary insanity
My most recent batch of Moo Cards showed up this week. I love these things. I use them as business cards, I slip them into orders that I’m shipping, and I use them as hang tags for my work. But I have to admit that besides all of those useful uses, they are also great […]

Been thinking about Vermont. Or maybe Massachussetts. Pennsylvania? Upstate New York? I’ve been reading everyone’s posts about fall, and now I want nothing more than to pack up my family and drag them leaf-peeping somewhere slightly cooler, and a bit more colorful than here. Oh, New Jersey will have its turn for vibrant leaves and […]

Here in New Jersey, it’s not easy to tell that fall has arrived simply by looking around. Much of the scenery is still bathed in the verdant greenery of summer. When we walk to the bus stop in the morning, there are not yet piles of dead leaves for us to trample with a satisfying […]

You probably know that my “thing,” for the last year or so, has been to create custom color schemes in polymer clay to coordinate with existing designer fabrics. But long before I started matching fabric, I was devising my own color schemes. I still use both types of color families in my current polymer clay […]

Fall officially arrives at 11:48 Monday morning. I was resisting the end of summer, but now that I’ve had a few weeks to get used to the idea, I’m really looking forward to the next season. It has always been my favorite, after all. Autumn is honeycrisp apples, pumpkin bread, and grabbing a sweater on […]

I solved a problem I’ve been having, and I wanted to share. If you’re only here for the sewing, the polymer clay, or the occasional glimpse of boring office guy, you’ll have to come back tomorrow. Today we’re talking Geek Talk 😉 The problem I use Gmail and Calendar through Google Apps for my lisaclarke.net […]

After the stifling humidity of yesterday and last night, it was a sweet surprise to be greeted by a breezy, pleasant, 70-degree morning. Monday is vacuum day around here. And dusting day. And all other manner of once-a-week cleaning day, and I promise I will make a decent effort in that direction before too long. […]

We had two rainy days this week. The first made me want to do nothing but sip warm beverages and play on the computer. The second was yesterday, and it affected me differently. I found that I was most content when I was puttering around the kitchen. So, I went with it, and I whipped […]
