Snapshots from Christmas Morning

I hope you had a great holiday – we sure did! It’s just the four of us – well, of course, Stirling too! So it was a pretty low-key celebration. I was really really busy finishing up school and last minute orders, but I somehow was able to retain memories from LAST Christmas, when I was…

Happy Holidays!

I finished my last special order this morning, and have been wrapping, and watching Christmas movies ever since! I’ve got some shopping and baking to do, Santa’s coming!

Fun Holiday Video from Quilting Arts!

Festival of Pie 2010

Pin it forward: What Home Means to Me

Here’s my contribution to the 2nd blogger mashup organized by Victoria, from SF Girl by Bay. This time, we’re all using a cool new tool called Pinterest, that allows you to create “pin boards” of images you find around the web as you’re browsing - complete with photo credit – score! If you’d like to have a…

Happy Valentine’s Day

I’ve never been a big fan of this particular holiday. Perhaps it’s because I never had a Valentine or a secret admirer when it would have really mattered to me. When I did get together with the love of my life, I had enough romance for a year of Valentines, so fear not, I love…
