one headband for every occasion

I’ve talked before about how headbands are cool – not anywhere near as cool as bowties or fezzes, but they’re still pretty nifty (and we’ll get to bowties and fezzes in later posts, I promise). But as much as I like headbands, I don’t wear them often enough to need a whole army of them […]

paper plants

All of my houseplants go through a sort of trial by fire. Or trial by neglect, to be more accurate.

(Even Barbie never truly pulled those off.)

Turns out she’s also into the whole writing scene, and has a rather entertaining blog called Wifeish. If you suffer spring allergies from your local flora’s […]
