I haven’t hammered out a list of resolutions for this year. It would probably be basically the same as any other: self-improvement, weight loss, finding out where the money fairy lives, going to her home, and demanding my cut … certainly no promises on blogging (because we see what my track record has been like [...]

Phanatics and Nodding Head
Posted in Eating Out, Greater Philadelphia Area, Libations, My Life, Trips on August 31, 2010 | 4 Comments »
This weekend I went downtown with some friends and DH to see the Phanatic Around Town statues that were, well, all around town. Not only was this super fun but other than the money we spent on lunch, a few beers, and the train, it was also free! You don’t come across too much in [...]
Handmade: Whirly Wheels Baby Quilt
Posted in Handmade, My Life on August 23, 2010 | 2 Comments »
I mentioned this quilt a while back and posted a few preview photos, but a couple of weeks ago I finally finished it. I took photos of it out in the yard (because that seems to be the en vogue thing to do with quilts — and, as one person pointed out, I’m certainly happy [...]
Sierra Nevada Tumbler

Matt and I went for a little stroll around our neighborhood two nights ago. Immediately at the moment I thought, “Wow, it smells like fall,” he said, “It really smells like fall.” That was a nice moment to remember the day by for sure. It was actually that rotting leaves scent that we detected. And [...]

DH is pretty much obsessed with all things i. His iPhone never leaves his side and either that or his iPod is constantly tethered to our computer’s USB port for updates, new playlists, and the like. While I find this minor addiction to be off-putting at times, I do value the fact that I have [...]
Thought About Eggs?
Posted in My Life on August 13, 2010 | 1 Comment »
I had planned on posting a real post today, but events transpired (nothing bad or important — I just got busy with other things), so that’s out. Yesterday though, I read something that I thought was so simple, but pretty poignant: If you drop one egg, do you throw the rest of the dozen on [...]
On Buying Pants
Posted in Clothes, Discussions, My Life on June 30, 2010 | 2 Comments »
I bought a slew of new pants and business casual clothes yesterday in celebration of and preparation for my new job. Yes, that’s right — I’m hired. No more lunch dates. No more quilting and Rachael Ray. It’s off to a cubicle I go. I start working in July and while I’m going to keep [...]
Getting Around the Text Limit
Posted in Discussions, Gadgets, My Life on June 28, 2010 | 1 Comment »
Perhaps everyone else does, but Matt and I do not have unlimited texting as a part of our cell phone plans. When we switched over to the iPhone we were of the mindset that we could limit ourselves on texting and save some money on a monthly basis. With that being said, someone in our [...]
Home Sweet Home

Matt and I took a little long-weekend trip to Fort Lauderdale courtesy of thenest.com (I won a contest — I actually won — they picked me!). It was pretty sweet. We saw Scottie Pippen getting out of his Rolls. We ate for free 8 individual times. For what more could I ask? But despite our [...]
What’s Going On

I think I spend so much time thinking, “Well, I haven’t found anything stellar lately,” that I just don’t post. And while the main aim of this blog is to share great things, the more blogs I read, the more I realize sometimes bloggers just share what’s going on. This ends up being a lot [...]
