Then Vs Now: When Did Kids Birthday Parties Get So Pinterest?

June 21, 2017 by Erin Pepler 3 Comments

Do you remember birthday parties in the '80s and ‘90s? You’d invite over all of your school friends, play Dream Phone or Mall Madness and then pop in a VHS (Troop Beverly Hills or Clueless, maybe, depending on your year of birth). Younger kids played Pin the Tail on the Donkey on backyard fences … [Read more...]

Braidy-Cat

October 11, 2013 by Amanda 2 Comments

My hair has about three style settings: loose waves, straight-ironed, or slicked back in a top knot bun. Pretty basic. I have combed through pages of Hair Inspiration on Pinterest but can never seem to find neither the time nor dedicated interest to sit down and try a new style as I am rushing … [Read more...]

Love, Sweet Love.

August 26, 2013 by Amanda 2 Comments

This weekend we celebrated with family as my husband's brother tied the knot with the love of his life. The setting was exquisite: a secret forest, tucked away in a valley, with goats and miniature horses running amok, a sparkling pond, a cozy barn, and too many details to list. Basically, … [Read more...]

October 29, 2012 by Sonya

So, we're getting ready for Halloween and it looks like this monster of a storm is coming our way. My kids started talking about what to do should we get a complete rain out on the night of Halloween.

Colour Me Pinned

October 8, 2012 by Kath

I've written about my tempestuous relationship with Facebook, and although I am on Twitter, I'll be the first to admit I rarely use it. It just goes way too fast for me to keep up with (and yes, I realize that just saying that makes me sound like I'm ninety-nine years old). I haven't yet found a … [Read more...]

Your Style Council – Getting Started

August 24, 2012 by Urban Closet

I'm trying a new angle here, based on a request that came from an online friend (I've met just once before) called Julie, when she mentioned on Facebook how she wanted someone to go shopping with her to get her fall wardrobe together, and on a budget. Hmmm... Earlier this summer, one of my … [Read more...]

Social Media, Social Mania

October 17, 2011 by Amanda

Here's my synopsis of today's social media tools:Pinterest: Makes me feel bad about myself. Pretty pictures of things I'll neither have the time nor money to make a reality in my own life. Twitter: Makes me feel bleak about humanity. Can we really forge connections of any depth when they are … [Read more...]
