You guys! How could I almost have forgotten? This week is my two year blogiversary! I can’t believe I’m still around writing all this crap. I guess I am not a quitter. Actually I have the opposite problem; I stick around long after I should have gone/quit/stopped. Which is good news for my husband, […]
The perpetrator (also a victim of his own crime): Goodbye hair. We will miss you!
I decided not to go with the Mountain Dew cupboard pulls (I know, such a pity). Instead I’m thinking of these (I need all the shininess I can get so I’m going with chrome. Mission impossible, by the way. All cabinet hardware comes in nickel, these days. If that’s not what you want, too bad.) […]
I have decided that this week shall be Hobby Week here at Beehive and Birdsnest. I like to collect hobbies which isn’t surprising considering I was born to two people who always had some “thing” that they were into. My dad leaned toward things that go. He was on the pit crew for a few […]
Let’s talk about fashion first: Watching the Oscars is a bit lame when you don’t have cable. You can’t switch between four channels to make sure you don’t miss a single dress on the red carpet. Instead I had to sort through pictures on the internet this morning to see if there were some stunners […]
I love, love to plan trips and do research and find cool things to do on vacation. I felt like I had found a bunch of really great things to see and do on this trip. So imagine my dismay when we got to Paris and I realized that I had entirely forgotten to include […]
Like most girls growing up in the late 80’s-early 90’s I had a soft spot in my heart for Harry Connick, Jr. He was the essence of the debonair, romantic gentleman who would be coming along to sweep my off my feet any second now. But his music framed a couple of my doomed relationships […]
The nice thing about kids leaving the nest is that it leaves a lot more room for the people still at home. Since India and York flew the coop, we’ve had a lot of shuffling and redecorating of rooms. Let’s just say I find myself at Home Depot just about every day for one project […]

Dear School That My Children Attend, First of all, today is the last day of school before Christmas vacation. Thus it is my last day to run errands child-free. You have scheduled my child’s class party for 9 am. Just because all the other parents take their children home as soon as the party ends, […]

In my constant search for the perfect baptism* dress for Arabella I came across this beauty. It’s silk, hand smocked by Isabelle Garreton (who makes the most drool-worthy dresses. Look at that smocking!), size 12 (new with tags) and it’s for sale on ebay for $9.99. Yes, you read that right. I almost passed out […]
