So, we know I both fear and loathe Las Vegas going to the dentist, right? And that I semi-accidentally didn’t go for several years? And that, ironically, I broke a tooth (more accurately: an old filling fell out) while flossing, prompting an emergency visit to that place of fear and loathing? (If you didn’t know those things, consider yourself fully caught up.) Materials used: Pentel brush pen (pink)… and, um……

Today: What I made | 004
It’s 70 degrees and the sun is shining in Boston, so we’re making a dash for the Harbor Walk (it’s where we do our best puppy watching). I’ll leave you with a few sunny creations from the past week or so. What I made |…

Today: What I made | 003
What I made this week: A crappy video. Olé! (I’ll embed it below for your viewing pleasure so you can mock me.) I also made some other stuff. Mostly all on the same night. Nick and I caught up on Homeland (by watching 900 episodes),…

Today: Get Messy Thursdays | Magic, Week 1
Get Messy Thursdays, on a Friday. A blame my tardiness on the Jeopardy! Tournament of Champions and other senior citizen-ish things that have had me preoccupied this week. The new season of the Get Messy Art Journaling program just started, and the theme this time around…

Today: Get Messy Thursdays | Throwback Thursday
Don’t worry. This isn’t the kind of Throwback Thursday where you have to see a photo of me with braces and curly bangs and pretend I was cute. We have a little break between Get Messy Art Journal seasons, so Julia wisely suggested we go…

Today: Get Messy Thursdays | Words, Week 6
It’s the final week of this season of the Get Messy Art Journal program (learn all about it here), and the inevitable has happened: I have run out of ideas and thoughts and brain power and found myself quoting Justin Bieber. There is a little…
