goody-goody

Yup. Still here.

I knew it would happen.

I've been away from blogging so long that Typepad up and changed everything. This is what transpires while I'm away thrifting, logging mommy time and baking cupcakes. (And eating cupcakes.) Okay, so I just give it a push, swing my leg over and start pedaling, right?  Here goes.

A repeated thank-you to those who are coming by via other websites and magazines. I promise I'm not usually this lame.

A sneak peek at some dishes I bought the other day at Goodwill. After 12 years of marriage, I finally gave myself permission to replace the clunky ones I registered for.  No offense, Pfaltzgraff "Ocean Breeze". It's not you. It's me. I've changed. And you wouldn't break. I tried...many times.

They seem happy and sunny, no? 

Happy Fall! Let the candy corn gorging begin.
 

Coffee Klatch and Sideshow Freaks!

                                       
Thanks so much for the blogwarming! I really enjoyed reading each and every comment...hearing what you're up to and what's going on in your lives. Did that come out creepy? Sorry. It felt like everyone stopped by for a quick cup of coffee and catch-up. Except I didn't have to clean my house or bake anything. Perfect.

The recipient of my hump day giveaway is Lesley! I hope you have a good girlfriends' weekend (plus one little guy)..and now you'll have a little something from me to look forward to next week. E-mail me your snail mail and I'll get the ring on its way. I hope to check in with all of you again next Wednesday for another giveaway. Yes, I am bribing you to be my friend. Shameless, no?

I wanted to share a picture of my new little keychain, crafted by my SCM sister Antoinette. She gave it to me at our meeting on Monday. How did she know that my Scooby-Doo one had just broken? I love her fun, kitschy resin creations. Especially the Sideshow Freak Collection. I just love saying it.

See you tomorrow for another tgif quickie! Have a great day. I mean it.
