Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much. ~ Oscar Wilde Week 38. Each week this number goes up. Part of me still can't believe I'm working from home, and this isn't some colossal joke. (Maybe I've read too much Terry Pratchett? Is that even possible?) When I first started working from home, I…Read more Working from Home: Week 38

A bad attitude is like a flat tire, you can't get very far until you change it. A few Fridays ago, I had a celebrate life post about Cowl-o-Ween. I had so much fun with the mitts, I decided to go for the matching cowl. This is a 31 day kal with pretty much the…Read more Cowl-o-Ween: Days 2, 3 and 4
Haunted Handwarmers: Day 12
The undertaking of a new action brings new strength. ~ Richard L. Evans Over the weekend, I realized I'm about to hit the two decade mark for being a knitter. It won't be long before I've been knitting longer than I haven't been knitting. I never stop to ponder how my body is getting older…Read more Haunted Handwarmers: Day 12
Friday the 13th Part 1 and Part 2
"You see, Jason was my son, and today is his birthday." ~ Friday the 13th Many people fear Friday the 13th. Did you know Alfred Hitchcock was born on Friday, August 13, 1899? He was destined to produce great horror, drama and suspense movies. For a month to have a Friday the 13th, it must…Read more Friday the 13th Part 1 and Part 2

Here's an excerpt from…Read more Celebrating Life: Hygge

Celebrating Life: Kiss My Keto
B is for baking beautiful bread. Another Friday has rolled around. While the election news or lack of results, has made this week feel twice as long. We're still celebrating life here! It's no surprise I love making, eating and toasting bread. I love that warm yeasty aroma as dough proofs and bakes. It's full…Read more Celebrating Life: Kiss My Keto
Remember Remember
People shouldn't be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people. I love Guy Fawkes day. The British celebrate a plot to blow up parliament. Soon it will be 400 years since this event took place. With any luck, the British Hubby will be in England to celebrate. We've had great fun…Read more Remember Remember
