All Things Pickle

Kata had to write about a Holiday Family Tradition. We have many, many traditions. But our very own was started with a Pickle Ornament I found at Tarjay. I don’t hang this ornament until late on Christmas Eve and the first kid to find it on Christmas morning gets to open their present first. You […]

All Things Thankful

Love our traditions like Riggsby Blueberry pie for Thanksgiving. Can’t let pumpkin pie be the runaway favorite. And family. We love having Baka and Djedo here to join us on this holiday and remind us of all the things that make us thankful this year.

All Things First Snowfall.

It’s that time of year when amidst the golden colors of autumn, we begin to see white. And we put on those parkas for the very first time. That first snowfall is always so full of promise and hope. Promise that it won’t stay long and hope that it’ll be a mild winter.

All Things Trendy

There are hairstyles that most women naturally default to. Oh, you know who you are. And let’s face it, I’m one of you, too. I love my bob. I confess. It’s practical and always looks good. I’ve worn variations of it since I was 19 years old. But today, my darling, artistic-souled hairstylist suggested layering […]
