There’s a lot going on in my brain but not much to share yet. My big task is coming up with my USP-the unique selling proposition of my business. While I know I am unique and I will have something to sell (hopefully locally by the end of July; there’s a trunk show coming up […]
Here’s a peek at this year’s theme for my mom. No, it has nothing to do with the Royal Wedding, but instead the Kentucky Derby, known for its hats 🙂 I’ll reveal the final card upon my return (mom has first dibs on seeing it). Last year is here. Chapeau to our moms!
Have a Springy weekend!
My long blog post is still simmering, so today I’ll share a few photos from being out and about. The curious robin is heralding spring.  I’m treating myself to little pleasures.  And the world always reminds us that love is all around you.  Have a loving day!

…or Solstice, or reflective year-end time… I grew up celebrating Christmas as a cultural tradition. In Germany Weihnachten was less a religious event as it was a celebration of traditions, rituals, and the gathering of family (to me at least). I like the slowing down and cozying up as a family unit to light candles, […]
I’ve lit the fourth Advent candle (our family tradition), and am reflecting on all the lasts I will have tomorrow. My last commute, last time in the office, the final goodbyes to colleagues. I’m pleased to report that the Flurries I created for my colleagues have been well-received. It’s amazing how handwritten notes stand out […]
