Coffee Conversations with a Purple Girl
Avast ye maties! It be International Talk Like a Pirate day! A most glorious day when ye might get a free donut if ye go to the right place dressed as a pirate! Or so I’ve heard. It be also the day I be celebrating me birth. A happy coincidence indeed! Okay, I’m definitely not […]
“Moving right along in search of good friends and good foods, with good friends you can’t loose.” “This could become a habit!” Before every long distance trip, my husband and I play “Moving Right Along” from the Muppet Movie. It’s been our tradition for two years now because it’s a great song and I like it […]
I was scrolling through my Facebook memories this morning, as I often do, when I came across a post I made six years ago. It was about 1 in the morning and I wasn’t asleep because I’d just graduated high school and it was summer. Sleep didn’t happen until like 3 at least. So I […]
I have been wanting to take a break all summer. It’s been one of those years were we get little trips here and there and they’re all the super stressful ‘get everything done’ kind of trips, except that one to Indiana in March, which was only partially like that. We’ve traveled to Indiana twice this […]
We’ve been having what turned out to be the dumbest adventure here in the Scavo house. We knew when we moved in that our house was special. We’d never lived in our own house before, so it was going to be inherently different from renting an apartment. We were prepared for that. We just weren’t […]
This is the thing about summer that I always forget. It rains, a lot. Thunderstorms run rampant around our county, unchecked, unchallenged, thundering at will… wait, that’s a movie, never mind. Anyway, we’ve had quite a few thunderstorms and I’m not sure if they are good or bad for my tomatoes. I have to worry […]
I started National Novel Writing Month, Camp edition with a pretty good buffer. I started with 2,000 words out of a 20,000 word goal so that’s 10% of my goal right there. I was doing really well for about a week at keeping up with writing 1,000 words every day and I was really proud […]
I would like to write something super awesome for our second anniversary, but due to wonky sleeping these past two nights and I haven’t made coffee yet, actually, that should be a thing that I do, I’m just going to ramble at you this morning a little bit and write something better for Wednesday when […]
Good Morning, friends! As you know, Monday was the 4th of July, also known as Independence Day! A day for fireworks and family picnics, my husband had the whole day off! For days like this we usually find ourselves with more options than we know what to do with, but this year, for this holiday, […]
Ever since I got married I’ve found that my craftiness comes in waves. I was really into crocheting for a while that summer, fell out of it, fell back into it, rinse and repeat. I made learned how to make socks and made two pairs before falling out of that, I made a ton of […]
