Coffee Conversations with a Purple Girl
Every year my in-laws make a Christmas trip into Pittsburgh. I don’t know how long they’ve been doing this, but it’s been at least as long as I’ve known them. There’s a little Christmas village in Market Square that they go to look through and a list of other Christmasy things to see and do each […]
Growing up we watched a lot of Christmas specials, but not so many Christmas movies. There is a very clear distinction between the two, you know. A Christmas movie is a full length film with a Christmas theme. A Christmas special is short, made for TV, and often part of something bigger. The Charlie Brown […]
Welcome, dear friends, to this years Christmas series! It is very gloomily raining outside and not feeling very Christmasy at all, but we’ll make the best of it, as you do in Western PA, where it could snow on Thanksgiving and rain on Christmas and then Snow on Easter, just because. It really is very […]
Good morning friends! Welcome to the holiday season! I’m going to get into some Christmasy things here soon, I promise, but this morning I’m just going to go on a little bit of a ramble because we’ve had a bit of a cat scare and I’m getting a late start on everything today. So last […]
Is this cheating? I’m not sure. But for my final day of thankfulness I am so thankful for Thanksgiving. It has always been my favorite holiday, a day to gather with family and eat and enjoy each others company. It kicks off the holiday season and launches us into the most festive time of year. […]
IT’S HERE! It is officially Thanksgiving week! We have just two more days of thankfulness before THE BIG DAY!

Today I’m thankful for friends and siblings and the ability I have […]
Good morning friends. I’m geting an okay start today, I guess, as far as time goes. I actually got a good start to my day as far as other things are concerned. I did yoga this morning and listened to a devotional podcast which was pretty good so I’m off to a pretty good start […]
Today I am thankful for my house. I know, it’s not really my house, but I am thankful for the house that we get to live in via paying someone else to live here. I am so thankful for God’s providence in bringing us here and all the things that went into our getting this […]
Good morning friends! It is officially November, which means that National Novel Writing Month has officially begun! This means I’ll be devoting a big chunk of my time this month to the usual attempt at completing 50,000 words by the end of the month. I never try the traditional finishing a novel in a month […]
Good Morning, my friends! I’m actually up early today, but you can’t tell because I dropped my husband off at work first before I came home to sit down at my computer. It’s finally cooled off again so I am snuggling up in my giant sweater for the day with my crackling candle for company. […]
