Caught my eye

Blue-footed boobies sweatshirt I am a sucker for puns, I love them. I also am going through all of the Donna Andrews books again on audiobook and so birds are at the forefront of my mind.

Brown sugar iced latte

Something about springtime makes me want a sweet iced latte. I made this brown sugar simple syrup and had a nice afternoon rejuvenating latte on a warm afternoon.

Caught my eye

Mary Tyler Moore show I was looking for something to watch on Amazon Prime and under my suggestions was the Mary Tyler Moore show.

What if… (Vampire Diaries addition)

There was another group of students in the high school that was also becoming vampires/ werewolves and they're out there not knowing they are basically paralleling this other group.

OMG, am I boooooring?

I was driving home from a work meeting at Fall Creek Falls State Park yesterday and was thinking, "man, I am boring. When did that happen?" I feel like I used to do all kinds of adventures and interesting hobbies, where did they go? I brought it up to my husband after dinner, and he …
