Okay. I can understand WHY people sneer at me when I say “I have a migraine.” Too many people use that phrase when they mean “I have a really bad headache.” I, however, know the difference. A headache is pretty annoying. A migraine puts you flat on your back. When I say “I have a […]

Happy Holidays!
It’s horrible to say, all things considering, but we had a good Christmas here at the Vanian house. We slept in, opened pressies, watched telly, visited the MIL and BIL and opened more pressies, played CoD, ate lots of junk food and had a few adult beverages, watched more telly and fell asleep together on […]

Fried pickles!
The DH and I tried fried pickles the last time we were in America and we both loved them. When we got back, I decided I’d give them a go and see how they turned out. I was a bit worried that I wouldn’t find everything that I need because Britain doesn’t always have the […]

A new blog!
CATEGORY: UncategorizedWell, I’ve been debating whether or not to start a new public blog for awhile now and – as you can see – I’ve decided in favour of it. My livejournal will continue to function as my private/fanfic journal and this will be my crafting/cooking/photography/everything else journal. I’ll have to work on a new look […]

Things I Love About Halloween
I love pumpkin pie as an image and as a smell. I LOVE the pumpkin pie lotion that Bath and Body Works sell but we don’t have one here. Elvira cracks me up and I prefer The Aadams Family over The Munsters. Micheal Jackson’s Thriller is a MUST for Halloween. I LOVE scarecrows! Creepiest things […]

How do you get inspired? Where do you like to write? Is it easier to compose with pen and page or at the computer?
CATEGORY: UncategorizedInspiration comes from Mother Nature. When I’m stuck for ideas, I talk a walk. A trail of dried leaves scurry behind me to keep up as I walk. The wind rustles through the tree tops, saying hello as I pass. A cool breeze sweeps up behind me to guide my steps. I sit along the […]
