Hope everybody in the U.S. had a lovely Thanksgiving and for those living not in the U.S. I hope you just had a wonderful weekend! Today’s mug seems pretty boring. There’s no cute picture, no clever witticisms or anything. Just your standard issue blue coffee mug. So, why is it here? This is one of [...]

A little late with the mug shot today. I pulled something in my back whilst taking out the recyclables, so I’m moving a little slow in general today. I’m sure there are a variety of self-deprecating remarks I could put here, but I’ll leave that up to you guys! Please, feel free to have a [...]

Fall. I love it. Even though, this year, it’s totally different. Down here in the land of palm trees and beaches, there are no apple orchards or pumpkin patches.
