Some random thoughts by me… FOOD NETWORK I must say, I am addicted. I go through phases and right now, I’m enjoying FN. Favorites shows include Barefoot Contessa (would love to visit Ina at her yummy house in the Hamptons. She makes me feel warm & fuzzy inside.), Everyday Italian (wish I were a cool […]

And I’m trying not to be too annoyed! We are getting a new furnace installed this week, which means there are lots of guys stomping around the house in their dirty work boots, being noisy and dragging lots of dirt around. I’m doing my best to ignore it, although I know there’s going to be […]

Is it wrong to have more pictures of the flower girls than of the bride & groom?? Well, I just can’t help myself!Avery and her cousin Anna were the little flower girls and, although it was a very long day for them, they did a great job and were so cute! Here’s Anna…Ok, so getting […]

Here are a few more pics from my brother’s wedding. It was a perfect day for an outdoor wedding! The wedding was very laid-back and casual, just like the bride & groom. Lots of out-of-town family to catch up with, new people to meet, and good food to eat! (I’m all about food right now) […]

Yesterday was the most perfect day for a wedding! And I’m so happy for my little brother and his new wife! She was so beautiful, he was so happy, and I can’t believe the day is over already. It was perfection! (more pics to come)

So what did you think about the season premier? I thought it was pretty good. The Meredith accident story-line was a little odd, but I guess that whole show is pretty odd as a whole and that’s what makes it great! Of course I loved that Jim & Pam are dating and thought it was […]

Well, I suppose now is a good a time as any to let you in on a little secret…. We have a little bambino on the way!!Thus, the major lack of postings and commenting by me. I’m about 10 weeks along and smack in the middle of morning sickness (or, as all you moms know, […]

I’m SO relieved to know that most of my friends are Office fans!! It’s just the best show. Here’s a look at what the office was up to this summer… On another note, we’re trying to plan a vacation with another couple for February and I need ideas. We want to go someplace warm like […]

So have you been watching Martha Stewart’s show lately? She’s been showing off her new collection for Macy’s and, although I think her show is just one giant advertisement for her products, I’m really liking this collection! I really like this all-white bedding she’s put together – old fashioned, clean, simple…And I also really like […]

I’ve had some really good luck at yard sales the past few weeks. I bought this red berry wreath that I’ll put on my door at Christmastime (after I spruce it up a bit)… This bench is perfect for our entry! I just have to decorate it a bit better. The lady at the yard […]

I’ve been tagged by Chris at Just Beachy. The game is to come up with a little unknown thing for each letter of your middle name. My middle name is Sue, so this should be short & sweet. S is for SHORTS. Ack! I don’t wear them EVER! Well, unless I’m mowing the yard, but […]

Last week we went to Poole Forge for the evening. It’s an old historic park with a creek & a covered bridge. It’s actually the site of my brother’s wedding later in September. We walked around the grounds and just enjoyed the beautiful, relaxing evening. Avery loved the horses & buggies that were tied up […]
