when east meets south
I finally figured out how to retrieve my iPhone pics without having to actually find a plug and hook my phone up to my computer, and then move my pictures over to my computer and then move them to where I want them to go. Okay, I sorta knew how to do it, but I hadn’t actually done it. But… Read More
Had an absolute blast last night. Aimee, Mac Powell’s wife, and I got a chance to meet up at the Created4Care conference in March. And she graciously – and amazingly generously – offered to hook our entire crew up with tickets to the Third Day show in Raleigh. For our family, getting a chance to go to this concert was… Read More
I was so very excited to get this back. My most favorite piece of jewelry. Heck, one of my most favorite things… period. But I was also incredibly nervous. When I received the new charm for my necklace for my birthday last year, I knew it would include the name of our newest little bug, Miss Tallula. But I wasn’t… Read More
I want to share with y’all a Christmas tradition we have around here. Well, I guess not so much a tradition in the literal sense. Because some years I’m just too darned lazy busy to make it. But every time I do make this confectionery delight, I am so. stinkin’. glad. I did. Meet Ellie’s Caramels. So named for the… Read More
I like a lot of things. But there are very few that I love. And, especially at this gift-buying time of year, I can’t get enough of hearing what other folks love, too. In fact, I could be possibly referred to as a review freak… I am much more interested in others’ reviews of an item than what the actual… Read More
I thought I’d share what you could win in the Share the Love giveaway. This beauty happens to be mine. All mine. I’ve had it for almost 3 years – received it as a gift for my 40th birthday – and I’ve worn it most days since. Over the years, I’ve had quite a few folks stop me and ask… Read More
I told her I’d do this because I owe her one for sharing weekly on No Hands But Ours. Actually, I owe her a whole lot more than one, because she’s been rockin’ out some great Whatever Wednesday posts over at NHBO for a loooong time. She never asks for anything in return and now that she has, how could… Read More
…to my friend Jessica. She has got some crazy skillz. And she created an outrageous bunch of presets for Lightroom. For jpg picture-takers, like myself. And this Triple Set? It rocks. Why, exactly, am I talking about jpg pictures and post-processing today? Because my sister left. And took her precious kiddos with her. I am in denial. Soooo, to cope… Read More
Wow. It’s here. And I can’t take my eyes off of it. I am not sure if that is a good thing or a bad thing, but for now I’m completely smitten. I so wish you guys could have been here with me when I opened it up. You, however, might be thanking the Good Lord that you were not… Read More
I finally bit the bullet. And bought it. The thing that my husband wanted to give me for Mother’s Day. And has continued to insist that I buy pretty much every day since. It should arrive today. I don’t know whether to laugh at how ridiculously excited I am. Or cry because it’s so ‘spensy. Or both. Once I’ve got… Read More
