When I shared my handwriting I wrote about how I think it’s sad that the written word is a dying art. There is something so much more personal about a handwritten note or letter, and as much as I love how easy Facebook, texting, and email make it for me to keep in touch with … Continue reading
I got the idea to share my handwriting here from the 20SB weekly blogging prompt. I’ve always found handwriting interesting, and anything handwritten is inevitably more personal than something typed, texted, or otherwise word-processed. Both of my parents have impeccable handwriting, which I’m sure has a lot to do with the era in which they went … Continue reading
Erin and I went to the Indianapolis Art Center in Broad Ripple to take some outfit pictures. The pictures were supposed to be a joke, but they kinda ended up looking real, except for the fact that mine are terrible quality because I used Microsoft Paint to edit them. I posted the details of my outfit just … Continue reading
Thanks to Alyx, Daryl, and Cecilia for hosting the Christmas in July blogger gift exchange. Who wouldn’t jump on an excuse to celebrate Christmas twice in one year? Gretchen and I actually talked about having a Half-Christmas party this year, which I think is a brilliant idea, but it just wouldn’t be right without Christmas … Continue reading
I don’t even remember how I stumbled across Lindsay’s Foodie Pen Pal exchange, but I’m so glad I did. What a brilliant idea — bloggers and blog readers from all over the country (and Canada and the UK) get matched up to send each other packages of food, and then blog about it. If you’re new … Continue reading

I can’t say how often these posts will happen, but I have a few recipes stashed away that I plan to feature on SNACK ATTACK. As you’ll notice, the tagline to this series is “Recipes for lazy people” — the idea … Continue reading
I took this idea from Nova, because why not? Rules: 1. Post your first ever Facebook profile picture 2. Pick one photo from each consecutive year up to the present one 3. Explain 2006: This photo was taken in Tomahawk, Wisconsin at a bonfire at my friend Joe’s house. I had just graduated from high … Continue reading
I have a really loud, obnoxious laugh. If you’ve heard me laugh before you may or may not understand the varying degrees of obnoxiousness that my laughs achieve. It’s like a spectrum, and when I think something’s really funny and I laugh really hard, it’s ear-piercing and terrible. I’m really embarrassed by it at times, like … Continue reading
Erin tagged me in this meme, and I enjoyed reading her facts and answers to Mary Rebecca’s questions, so I decided to do my own post. Rules You must post these rules. Each person must post 11 things about themselves on their blog. Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post and … Continue reading
It’s weird that I’ve been writing this blog for a year and a half now. I’d like to think I’ve come a long way since my first self-deprecating post in August of 2010, but that may or may not be the truth. If nothing else, the tone of my writing has changed significantly because I’m … Continue reading
