We're Moving!

I haven't been around these parts for a bit because we are movin' on up! ..but not to the east side. It's scary over there. Anyway, packing has become something I no longer want to be a part of. Every time we pack a ton it doesn't seem to make a dent...it just looks more cluttered than before. UGH. Note to self - hire professional move...

Earth Day Plan for the Frugal Future

In honor of Earth Day (you could also say 'in honor of frugality') I'm deciding to make my own reusable items - as many as I possibly can!

I get them from target, and I get the target...

Make a Better Cup of Coffee

I got a bunch of Great Lakes Coffee from a friend who works for the company and it is the best coffee I've had in my life. Starbucks and any other corporate cafe cannot even compare! I used to enjoy simple coffee, say, from Dunkin Donuts - but now I can't stand the stuff. Now everything from everywhere tastes too burnt, watered down, and all around quite lackluster. Anyways,...

Spell with Flickr

We all know the endless fun of Flicker and this has been around for a while but I just found it and thought it was pretty neat! Go to Spell with Flickr and type in anything! write a ransom letter - just for fun of course. Once you type in your words, just click on any letter you would like to change and it automatically changes it for you. For instance, The "L" they came up...

Since I've been away...

Yes, I have not been doing much here as of late but there is a very good reason; I had a baby! A boy to be exact. We named him Levi Ulysses. He was 8 lbs 5 oz. and 21" long. Here he is - now 12 days o...
