Oh boy, it has been a crazy week. A good one, but nuts too. Scott and I are both mentally and physically drained, and while we have a whole queue of DIYs to do (and a few we’ve finished but’ve yet to find the light of day to photograph), there hasn’t been too much action […]

Oh, Sweet Friday
This week has been hectic and full. I’m very guilty of loading my plate with ridiculous portions – oh, busy, busy bee! – and it usually results in silly arguments with my favorite man. He says relax! and I say yes, in five minutes. Said tiffs are also guilty of spinning in circles (around and […]
Oh, Sweet Friday
Do you ever wonder how happy and relaxing your life would be as a house pet? Maybe the thought crosses my mind too often, you know, between the Pet Shop and our own three kiddos. Oh, to be fed on a regular schedule, soak in every belly rub, nap in the sun, and take car […]
Oh, Sweet Friday (and a Test Drive)
Aside from our questionable art and a handful of yellowed photographs, we also picked up this bare bones frame (we’re talking Randolph Flea, by the way). And while snapping a glamour shot of said frame, we kind of fell in love with the gaudy gold against our graphic paper. Whoa. We realize it’s no sin […]
Oh, Sweet Friday
The one good thing about the absurd amount of rain that Chicago’s seen this summer is that our garden – well, our garden is growing. Add one part steamy, hot days to equal parts muggy, thick air, and we’d say you’ve got one hell of a flower party. (All the better to dine in!) And […]
Oh, Sweet Friday (and Chicken Foot!)
Have you ever played Chicken Foot (a.k.a. Mexican Train, Chickie dominoes, etc.)? After a few pals visited a month ago and introduced the amazing-ness that is Chicken Foot, we’ve been totally hooked. Like, every friendly gathering starts with who has the dominoes? Of course, Jack loves any excuse to have all his favorite people around […]
Oh, Sweet Friday
Thank jeebs, it’s Friday again. Eee! There’s just something about 5 o’clock on this day that makes you feel so dang free. For that one minute, you’ve got nothing but time ahead of you, and hopefully a good one, too. While not exactly Friday related (but we’ll get there), I found this older photo of […]
Oh, Sweet Friday (and New Year Promises)
We don’t do resolutions. Never really have, and with the yearly load I tend to pile on our plates (as if you could consider crafty goodness and wall painting a “load,” I mean, really) – I’m not sure we ever really will. But when I asked Scott if the year of eleven would be any […]
Oh, Sweet Friday
Ah, happy Friday, all! With Windy City temperatures below zero all week (making for freezing toes, cheeks, and seemingly extra-long bus waits), we’re thinking we could take a queue from Miss Maddie. May everyone stay warm this weekend, and drink a cup of hot chocolate for us, will you?
Oh, Sweet Friday (and Holy Renegade, Folks)
The laundry’s done, the bags have been unpacked, and the house has been sufficiently vacuumed and dusted. And since the ol’ honey-do list has been properly tackled, we’re able to spend the whole weekend (and the next weekend and the one after that) preparing for the upcoming Renegade Craft Fair. Whoot! Some of you may […]
