Coffee Conversations with a Purple Girl
This past week has been filled with cupcakes, mostly. For my cousin Brittney’s wedding I volunteered to make cupcakes so they didn’t have to worry about getting enough cake for everyone. I enlisted the help of my very good friend Michelle, as she is wonderful and can basically do anything involving a kitchen. Brittney’s them […]
It is inevitable that when one goes to college at a Christian school and makes friends those friends will start getting married as soon as you graduate, or sooner. It is also inevitable that when you have 24 first cousins alone and you’re somewhere in the middle, you’ll grow up going to weddings, and then […]
I’ve recently discovered that my kitten Calamity really likes eating the wooden wicks of my wood-wick candles. Why? I don’t know, but she seems to enjoy chewing on them and breaking off little charred bits to munch and then let drop on my end table. I wonder if she has a deficiency of some kind. […]
Yes, it’s a Monday and I’m posting about my cats. Its been just about two months since we moved the kittens over to the new house and it’s been quite the adventure thus far. I’ll admit, it’s been a long time since I actually lived with kittens. My family has lots of cats outside, but […]
Okay guys, I’ve been sitting here for like an hour trying to write something and I’m getting nowhere, so we’re doing another ten minute ramble for this morning. To be fair I did talk to my mom for a little while in there. I’ve been helping her with her resume which is a hug pain, […]
My parents came down on Monday to hang out for the day. When I say hang out, what I mean is fix things, at least as far as my dad is concerned. Because that’s what my dad does: he fixes things. He takes things that are broken and he makes them all better. That’s how […]
Happy April Fools day, my friends! This is actually the strangest of all holidays, do you realize that? Today is a day where it is acceptable and encouraged for people to play pranks on each other. Apparently this is also a thing about St. Patrick’s Day I never knew about until this year, but mostly […]
Good morning dear friends! It is a very blustery day here and I’m writing to you from the office where it’s still safe. The living room is safer now, thanks to my dear friend Michelle who recommended the solution we were looking for to our cat smell problem. Now I just have to get around […]
I have a beautiful story to tell, about some of the most beautiful people I know. I got to sit in court yesterday. That doesn’t sound beautiful, or fun, or even good, but it was. I sat in on the final adoption hearing for this family’s second little girl. This family has now adopted two […]
I took my yucca plant outside because it was nearly seventy degrees and sunny. I thought it was a good idea. I was wrong. I forgot to bring her inside when I left on my vacation. Sure it was a little cooler, but not too cold. I’m hoping she’ll recover. I did bring Yvette inside […]
