Last weekend Erin and I went to the INDIEana Handicraft Exchange. It was so awesome! It was really hot outside and I got a little sunburned, but there were so many great vendors with awesome handmade wares to sell.

Sunday confessions, vol. 6
Sometimes for a snack I eat a bowl full of shredded cheese with pickle slices. I’ve always loved pickles, but I think this habit really started the summer that I lived on campus and worked at The Corner Cone in Yellow Springs with Gretchen. We would fill the little plastic ice cream cups with shredded cheese … Continue reading »

The movie was … Continue reading »

It’s a convenient way to upkeep my Facebook friends but I hope no one has ever noticed … Continue reading »

So, in October, I had the opportunity for Dressed to Chill to be sponsored by one of my favorite bloggers, Mary Rebecca. I did a guest post on Mary’s blog and spent some time poking around the blogs, Tumblrs, and Twitter accounts of Mary’s other October sponsors, including Erin from eef-ink. I started following eef on … Continue reading »
fair food and more fast times in licking county
The Fourth of July weekend is kind of a big deal in my town because it’s when the Granville Street Fair occurs. For anyone who doesn’t know, “street fairs” and various other types of small summer festivals are common in the many tiny towns that make up Licking County and other similarly podunk counties in … Continue reading »
