    Recipe: Balsamic Heirloom Tomatoes on Toast

    May 14, 2017

    Maybe my next job will be “Swami to the Stars”

    May 5, 2017

    See you some other time, Prague.

    May 4, 2017

    We got the June thing sorted out. I found a way to switch our tickets to Copenhagen for a visit in August and even with the steep change fee and the difference in fare it ended up working out OK because I found a very good deal on the Denmark flights. It…

Starting to take some of the improvements from the guest room and add them to my bedroom, like this cool power outlet for the bedside table. I’m hoping it helps with the constant problem of needing to charge all devices simultaneously.


Still obsessing over Sew Over It and Lisa Comfort, the lady boss behind it all. Here is her site, YouTube vlog, and Insta. I bought pretty much every pattern they have during the recent 30% off sale.


Currently reading The 4-Hour Workweek by Timothy Ferriss. I need this book to help me but I don’t have enough time to read this book because I’m working nonstop, so…


Interested in these silica gel packets for my yarn stash. Does anyone out there add these to ziplock baggies of yarn?
