Ornament Exchange! #ARWB
This year the Arkansas Women Bloggers put together a fun hand-made ornament exchange among the member bloggers. Even though I now live here in Missouri, they still let me play along! I was tickled to be assigned The Park Wife as my ornament recipient. She is my oldest and bestest blog buddy. (Not meaning she is old, meaning she is the first fellow blogger I made friends with.) Anyhow, I tried my hand at some blog-inspired … Read entire article »

Football Party Food: Pull a Quarterback Sneak
There’s a reason I don’t blog about recipes or meals that I’ve put together very often. I’m not particularly good at cooking. Sure, give me a recipe or a meal plan, and I’m perfectly competent in following instructions, but you’re not likely to see much originality coming out of my kitchen. So, when we decided to invite some of the new families that we’ve met since moving to Ozark over for a Sunday afternoon of hob-nobbing … Read entire article »
