These paper flowers are pretty cute, yes?







Love these ideas and defintiely love the Valentine’s inspired bowties!
The paper flowers are just lovely aren’t they? Great for people with allergies! ;)
If you pre-order Sim City on Amazon now, you get a $20 amazon credit! I’m preparing to not see my fiancé for a couple of weeks when it comes out! ;)
Thanks — ordering now!
clearly you didn’t take my 2013 survey feedback seriously :)
Ha, were you one of the people that didn’t like the Honor Roll? Oddly, this is one of my most divisive columns. People love it! People hate it!
I used to be neutral about the Honor Roll posts; however, I think the quality of the links has been steadily increasing. I have been introduced to several new websites and to information I wouldn’t otherwise have come across through recent Honor Roll posts. And I am on the internet A LOT!
Wait…is today Friday?? :) You had me double checking the calendar there for a minute.

I know — Being out of town for Alt Summit threw me off-schedule and I didn’t have the post ready on Friday.
I am so excited for SimCity. I first started playing when you had to install it with a diskette…oh, diskettes…
I have one Expedit in my home. It really is a great piece of furniture.
I also have one, but I wish I had three. It is such a great, simple piece of furniture. I don’t care about people who hate Ikea. They can have my Expedit when they pry it from my cold, lifeless fingers.
