SO I picked this book up online. Like so many of the online books, it just did not translate well. I’m not sure how they scan these into the system. I suppose they must be broken up on two pages in the physical book, but the images being split make it so confusing. It wasContinue reading “Patterns? I’m so confused!”

Enchanted by Encanto
Sewing and embroidery were big skills of Mirabel’s from Encanto. I absolutely LOVED that movie. My SO has teased me that I’ve been obsessed with this movie even more than Moana. Honestly, my “favorite” Disney movie is always changing depending on my mood. But Mulan, Lilo and Stitch, Moana, and Encanto are absolutely in myContinue reading “Enchanted by Encanto”
The American Self-Defense Federation
The official website can be found here. The ASDF was officially founded earlier this year in February of 2022. They chose the name American because all of the founders and the group operate here in the United States. And the Self-Defense portion made it easier to include a vast number of different martial arts styles.Continue reading “The American Self-Defense Federation”
Out of State Seminar
The OCD person finally found an amazing packing list on Smart Travel. Instead of trying to make my own list, which I’ve done so many times, I found this one. I just need to print it out. (I totally made like 5 packing lists already. It’s been insane planning.) My SO and I are goingContinue reading “Out of State Seminar”
Proud Pride
I knew that this was going to need an entire post to itself. Happy Pride Month, everyone! I say Alphabet Mafia with lots of love. A bunch of folks on Reddit actually started referring to the LGBTQ+ community in this way. If you aren’t aware of what each letter means … I recommend just readingContinue reading “Proud Pride”
Jumpin’ into June
It’s been sweltering hot for a while now. So it’s hard to believe that Summer does not start until June 21st. It’s another crazy month jam-packed with so MANY things. Including, but not limited to… My Oldest Neices’ birthday. My Sister’s birthday. One of my good friend’s birthdays. My birthday. It’s also National Safety Month.Continue reading “Jumpin’ into June”
Get Organized?
I had no idea this was even a show until I checked out two books from the Libby Library app and noticed the Netflix symbol on one of the covers. I’m going to admit, that I was skeptical of this. The books don’t really explain very well what you need to do. Or maybe IContinue reading “Get Organized?”
Brown Butter Sauce
I’ve made brown butter for a few things. Here’s a great list of the different ways you can use it. I need to go down that list and try each one. I’ve done it a few times for eggs. Cookies. And one of my favorite ways was doing a brown butter buttercream icing that wentContinue reading “Brown Butter Sauce”
Ocean of Possibilities
Last year I slacked off and didn’t do the Summer Reading Program at my local library. But this year I think I’m going to tackle it. It looks like there are a ton of fun programs happening at our local library and I’d love to have a good reason to go out. My stepdaughter hasn’tContinue reading “Ocean of Possibilities”
Inktober52 – Week 20: SHIP
Today, Week 21’s prompt should be posted, so I won’t be too far behind with these drawing prompts. I love that ship is this week’s prompt. It seems like Ocean, Sea, and Pirates are a big theme this year. That totally doesn’t have ANYTHING to do with the Johnny Depp stuff or Disney wanting toContinue reading “Inktober52 – Week 20: SHIP”
