I Just Love It
Movie/music Monday I come to you today with another Ryan Gosling movie. What can I say? He’s one of my favorites. And actually, so is Steve Carell. Since it was Valentine’s Day on Saturday, Josh and I watched “Crazy, Stupid, Love” on Friday night. I’ve seen it a few times and it is just a… →

Yes, It Was That Good
“Something Good” Sunday After Josh and I ate dinner last night, it was easy for me to decide on the good thing I was going to write about today. With it being Valentine’s Day yesterday, Josh cooked us a lovely dinner. He grilled filet mignon and asparagus that had a great vinaigrette/marinade type of seasoning… →

Crushing It
Screenshot Saturday Saturdays are now for sharing screenshots I have taken and saved for a variety of reasons. Today it is not of a motivational quote, but it was inspirational in its own way. This is a comment someone made in reply to a post I made in my yarn swap group on Ravelry. This… →

Appreciation
Movie/music Monday I watched the Super Bowl yesterday. I didn’t win anything in the Super Bowl squares game my sister organized. If the Patriots had gotten a field goal or the Seahawks got another touchdown, I would have won the pot for the final score. Oh well. The game was what it was, a game.… →

Turtles and the Big Game
“Something Good” Sunday I waited to post this until this evening because I knew my something good was going to be the tattoo I just got. It is by far the most fun one I have. I love turtles. They’re my favorite animal and I’m a child of the 90s, so Lisa Frank was the… →
