Magic flying carpet!

Emu Uggs with Ribbons
Sheepskin boots, I just love, love, love them. I can't help myself. Every Fall I try to kick the habit, and go shopping for other kinds of boots or shoes, but it always ends up a disappointment. There is nothing like the warm comfort of a pair of Uggs. This time I bought a pair...
Cheap curtain!
It's been 10 months now since we moved to the country, but I still have no curtains. And that's because I don't want to loose any light or the gorgeous views, and because I'm cheap. Sunshine on my computer, doesn't make me happy In the cubby hole that is my office, I haven't got a...
House with no doors: a pro feminist song

From Summer clothes to Winter gear
All around me I can see the signs of Autum. Leaves are changing from green to orange and red, local farms are selling pumpkins, and temperatures are dropping.

Did you learn something new today?
Have you noticed when you lovingly ask your child: 'How was school today?' the answer is usually a shrug, and if you get réálly lucky a 'Dunno'. Experts say we're asking the wrong question. You're supposed to ask specific questions like: 'What did so and so teach you about the birds and the bees in...
