I’ve been on Pinterest recently (no surprise there) looking for fun things to do with old ticket stubs and one of the most common crafts I found was the ticket stub memory box. Well… it just had to be done, didn’t it? The frame itself is just a plain wooden shadow box from The Range, […]

Crafts and Crafting: Mod Podge Letters
This is a project that I’ve been wanting to try for ages and, as it happened, Jessica from a Shimmering Star had a birthday coming up. Perfect opportunity! Mod Podge has to be, without a doubt, one of my essential craft supplies; it’s so versatile! I decided to use it for this project (instead of […]

Monday’s Meme of the Week
Nothing can beat this week’s meme for sheer WTF factor: I have no words for how wrong that is! Lol.

A Song for Sunday: Kelly Clarkson – Tie It Up
This week’s Song for Sunday is a guilty pleasure: I’m not a huge Kelly Clarkson fan or anything but this one just gets stuck in my head. Even hard old cynical me gets all mushy and girly when this song comes on. I mean… Everyone wants to believe in happily-ever-after, right? That’s what this song […]

On My To Watch List
I wasn’t impressed with most of the trailers I saw at the cinema today but this one caught my attention: When the trailer for How I Live Now started I groaned a little bit. I thought it was just going to be another blah coming-of-age thing… Then bam! it turns into a post-apocalyptic romance -that’s […]

I honestly didn’t expect to have to see this movie alone. An acquaintance got me to read this series ages ago so when the movie was released, I thought we’d be going to see it together. But you know what they say about […]

Something Wicked This Way Comes, Ray Bradbury
Last week, as the Autumn chill settled in, I picked up my first Ray Bradbury novel, Something Wicked This Way Comes – and quickly fell in love. If I had known how utterly breathtaking Bradbury’s writing was, I wouldn’t have wasted the last thirty years not being his biggest fan. The first page of this […]

Butterscotch Infused Vodka
CATEGORY: Uncategorized
On the way home from work a few days ago, Jay laughingly told me about how one of his friends used Werther’s Originals to make butterscotch infused vodka. Naturally I made him turn the car around and go to the store to buy some! The idea is to empty a bottle of vodka into […]

Crafts and Crafting: Fall Leaf Cross Stitch
I’m the first person to admit that I’m not very good when it comes to cross stitch. It has to be a very small project because I have the attention span of a goldfish. It also doesn’t help that I have a habit of miscounting and screwing up the pattern – which I normally notice […]
