I know I’ve been slacking off a bit lately with Thanksgiving and such, so I thought I’d post an update with pictures! I decorated for Christmas, turned the office into my work space, and made a hat and scarf set for etsy! It’s actually for real people, and fits an adult, but I thought the…

I hope everyone had as great of a thanksgiving as I did. We went up to my in-laws and I brought Zucchini bread and chocolate cream pie for dessert. We chatted with friends and drank sparkling cider and went around the table and shared what we were thankful for. Looking back, I really have alot…

I recently launched a fan page for my etsy store, so if you’ve been there and like what you see, make sure you check it out and become a fan! Also, my sister in-law featured my article on The Box on her review site, the pickled wookiee.

Brainstorms are what happen when your thoughts swirl around until they rain onto paper (or a keyboard). They’re also a nice way to spice up a gloomy weekend. Last fall I discovered that listening to Owl City actually helps me with my brainstorming process. It may seem odd, but it helps me focus and think…

I’m retaking algebra this week (because I could never understand it) to prep for the SAT. I’ve finally got a curriculum I can understand, but I still wonder….who’s idea was it to apply reverse numbers and powers and do math backwards and call it advanced? I’m sure it’s great for scientists, I’m just not quite…
