I love the idea of the Wishing Wall. I think I’d hang it on the wall afterwards as a feel-good work of art!
Tuck tiny colorful wishes for the happy couple, new baby or proud graduate into this cardboard frame for a memorable keepsake. Or give it to yourself and let it be a time capsule of your hopes and dreams. Includes 500 wish sheets.

This contest/collaboration has been in the planning stages for way too long and I’m thrilled beyond words to finally be able to announce Win It: The Left Handed Calligrapher!
Nicole, The Left Handed Calligrapher herself, has offered an absolutely amazing prize for the winner of this contest: an 8.5 X 11″ piece featuring either the quote or short poem of your choice in her lovely penmanship. You’ll get to work with her to determine the style, colors and font used in the final piece. Coolest thing ever, right?!
To enter tell us what your favorite part of spring it. It can be an event, a feeling, a thing, you name it. Please be sure to include your email address as well. Commenting will close at noon one week from today (Monday, April 13th) at noon CST and we’ll choose the lucky winner! US residents only.
I’m not a big pizza eater unless it’s something really special. Blame it on overload in college or whatever, but there you have it. The brutally honest truth. That said, I really do like out of the ordinary pies, so that’s what this week is going to be all about. Enjoy Pizza Week!
Case in point: BBQ Pizza with fig, gorgonzola and prosciutto. Talk about food porn. This is the definition of the phrase.

Story of every Monday of my life!

Yay for Friday! Booo for bipolar weather! It’s swung from 30s to 70s and back again not once, but twice this week. Make up your mind, Mother Nature – can a girl switch out her winter wardrobe for spring or not?
This Weekend:
• work on the never-ending project that is my china cabinet
• go to the Thunder game with my mom
• finish reading New Moon
• LAUNDRY! like three weeks worth
• spring cleaning in the kitchen
• watch the lat weekend of March Madness
Happy Weekend!

Posted In happy weekendThese Chikotan Charcoal Stirs are interesting. I wonder what exactly there is to purify in a cocktail though…
Think of Chikotan as the ultimate swizzle stick. This high quality Japanese Bamboo charcoal stirrer is perfect for stirring and purifying drinks and cocktails. 3 piece set.
