O.M.G. I am so sore after nine holes it’s frickin’ ridiculous. But to start at the beginning: Thursday we headed down to California, to my dad’s "winter house" in La Quinta. I was down here in October, remember? So of course I waited until the last minuet to pack because I like that whole fear-of-god …

I’m Scrapbooking!
Can you believe it? This is like my first page in forever. I had a lots of fun organizing my new (old) card catalog and messing with my supplies always makes me want to create. Details here. I also did one of the Harry Potter book release here.

Yes I’m alive. My mom was actually not that upset. She doesn’t want to worry that much about it, and wants the counters to have "character" COOL! Of course she hasn’t seen it yet since it’s covered so… Bj like your bookmark?
Just Shoot Me Now
Go ahead. I probably won’t be alive anyway when my mom sees this:Remember how I said we were getting our kitchen redone a bit? New counter tops, stove, sinks, blah, blah. Well it’s mostly done (we still need new knobs and wallpaper), it was finished right before my mom and Bill left on a spring …
There is no soap, no soap like Zaz.
Love: My mom’s new sink Hate: Walmart. Well you knew that, but more specifically the boys got me a set of wire brushes there and the cheapo things couldn’t even last a whole lid cleaning session. I so do not understand the concept of buying cheap things that don’t last. Annoying.
I love me some vintage.
Love it, love it all. Clockwise from top left: Super cool letter game with neat vintage chipboard letters; X-Files card game, it’s the starter pack and Sciarrino and I can’t wait to play (okay maybe this one is not THAT vintage, but hey); awesome apron with kick ass fabric (see the picture of the day …
Elements of Correspondence
The whole card holder part actually sits on a really long shallow drawer. I covered the face of it with paper, ripped out the old ribbon tab and replaced it with ribbon jar ribbon. Like I said, you need to make one of these, fun, fun, fun.
busyness and randomness
Wow, so yesterday was awesome. It was the best Ribbon Jar day ever! It was totally crazy and I realized how much my mom helps me out. I was running around like a mad woman. But it was all good. So today I worked, and managed to get done around mid afternoon so I could …
One Year Later
Wow. The Ribbon Jar is one year old today. I just can’t believe it. I am so so happy that it has made it. I mean, ya, we’re still a baby, but everyday I feel like I learn more, and make the shop better. I really want to thank everyone who has supported me. Bj …
within
I’m just going to skip that whole part about me being a bad blogger, because I was being a good business woman and putting that first. And tomorrow you will get to read about my relationship with ribbon, but today: My brother recently moved into a fantastic apartment (I can tell you most certainly that …
