I’m afraid there’s not much to talk about today. Zack and I had a very laid-back evening last night. Dinner was served in Heaven, I knitted afterward and Zack did his own thing. Maybe you’re wondering what I made for dinner? Alright, I’ll share: Salsa chicken:1 – 14-oz jar of Salsa (medium is good)2 T…. [Read More]

Yesterday was a great day. I had an incredibly wonderful afternoon with my MOH (maid of honor). We met up in Lansing and spent the first good hour just talking over a delicious Teddy Bear (white chocolate + caramel) from Biggby’s. Then we spent the rest of the afternoon talking while shopping. Then I came… [Read More]

**UPDATE: The sweat shop is back in action! I just posted a new item on Etsy ;) naner, naner. I have had enough. This whole “let’s share your super long desk Maggie and we can have both our Macs side-by-side” thing is about over. Zack, sigh… I’m not so sure we can do this for… [Read More]

Something very traumatic has happened. This morning I woke up, got in the shower, and then proceeded to straighten my hair. And then I left the house with it like that. Hello? Why would I do this?

GOOD MORNING!Well, if it isn’t Thursday already ;) Dinner was served in Heaven again last night –Lasagna, garlic butter rolls and corn :) I’m not even kidding when I say that Zack tried telling me dinner looked great, but instead drooled a bit.

In order to continue shouting my love for Etsy, it is time to have another showcase. You might remember from this post that I listed some favorite items. Well, some have been sold, some are still available. But there are LOTS more to be loved. So here we go… get ready to drool ;D PS…. [Read More]
