Fickle Food

It will be getting chilly soon and I’m starting to think about soups and stews and all those great autumn foods. I was looking for a recipe for Butternut squash soup this morning and I came across one that looked really good on a blog called “What Did You Eat”, a short while later I [...]

I had a great weekend! Saturday my husband and I took our middle daughter and niece to the St, Louis zoo. Our youngest daughter was unable to go because her boyfriend had taken her to Sandusky Ohio for their two year anniversary…we had no idea she would return with a really fantastic surprise for us! [...]

We just found out Sunday that our youngest daughter, Abby, is engaged! Her boyfriend Josh, took her to Sandusky Ohio for the weekend to celebrate their two year anniversary and while they were there he proposed! The ring is gorgeous and the whole trip sounded so sweet and so romantic! It will probably be a [...]

I am SO excited about this product! Rubbersidewalks just makes so much sense to me! It’s all WIN-WIN! Rubbersidewalks save trees that might otherwise have to be removed, and trees, we all know, are very good for the environment. But just in case you haven’t heard… Trees convert carbon dioxide to oxygen and help remove [...]

The Wacko Jacko mask is the scariest mask I have ever seen! I’m peeking through my fingers even as I type! Bbrrrrr! Halloween is on its way and it’s time to get that costume together. Mask; $30, scaring the bejesus out of the neighborhood kids and their parents as well? Priceless.

I LOVE these canvasses. The Triptych Wall Art canvasses have a strange, mythical, fairy tale look to them, like illustrations from a wonderful vintage book! Each canvas measures 8″ by 8″, is stretched and ready to hang. By illustrator Kathleen Lolley.

This would look great in a Tuscan style garden! The Colosseum Planter is a miniature of one of the most famous ruins in the world! Would make a great centerpiece on your table, indoors or out! The pot measures 9″W by 7″H xby10 1/2″D.

This absolutely cracked me up!

This gorgeous Oak leaf Trivet is cast in bronze with a mellow pinkish gold finish. It measures 6.75 inches across and is far too lovely (in my humble opinion) to use as a lowly trivet…this piece would go on my table in a place of honor!

Only Mother Nature does it better. Michael Michaud Silver Seasons collection offers some of the most unusual and stunning pieces of jewelry I’ve ever seen! Many of his designs are created using the lost-wax molding process, using real plants and flowers as models. This Blueberry Pin looks good enough to eat! It is approximately 2 [...]
