Bio & Headshot

Well Hello there! If you've stumbled your way to this blog WELCOME! I'm a widwestern gal who is darn crafty. I love taking all kinds of pictures,  but taking funny ones of myself are my favourite. I am a t.v. and movie addict who can remeber all kinds of movie history, actors names, dates and trivia, however, I cannot seem to remember where I put my purse, keys and sometimes my children! 

To learn more about me you can get a backstage tour by clicking on the different links and visiting the bio/headshot area.

Bon Appe'tit

I recently have been on a reading roll.This is so very unlike me. I like to read, but mostly for entertainment. Once I find a book I usually "milk" the book FOREVER! In the last month I have read 10 books.This is why I have done almost nothing in the way of making anything or scrapbooking anything! So my 10th book is the above book Julie/ Julia. What a delightful book it was! I laughed, cried, and could not put it down. The story is about a temp Julia, who gets this idea to spend the next year cooking her way through Julia Child's Mastering the Art of French cooking, and then blogging about it. If you've ever opened a cook book and read a recipe only to find that you would have to go to 15 differnt stores to find this paticular spice,or you go out and buy all the ingredients for a paticular recipe, come home to make it, only to reread the recipe and figure out the thing has to marinate overnight? Then you will enjoy with this book. The author perserveres through the diffucult year with humor and alot of blood, sweat and tears.I bought the book after seeing the below trailer,the movie is actually based on this book AND Julia Child's Memoir My Life in France. Which i am currently reading, and also enjoying. Here's a couple of pictures from my recent trip to D.C. and the Smithsonian where Julia's entire kitchen is on display. Pause Playlist player at top right FIRST then play You Tube! Enjoy!
