Marvelously (Easy) Marshmallows

Sometimes cold winter days call for something special. Something sweet. Something soft, squishy, fluffy, and positively scrumptious. Something you can eat alone or melted with chocolate.

Something like homemade marshmallows.

Just Smile

I have a confession to make: I hate speaking to groups. I hate speaking to any more than two people. If I do, I have nervous flutters and shakings until it’s over. Many classes I managed to escape the dreaded presentation, but some had moments of torture for me (looking at you, sociology and biology).

Good Morning + A Giveaway!

Hello there, everyone! I hope your weekend was full of wonderful, delightful things. I enjoyed my last bit of freedom before my classes begin again this week. I’m simultaneously dreading and looking forward to it – dreading it because I know how hard it’s going to be; looking forward to it because it gets me closer to my end goal.

Thank goodness I have something fun to participate in today to take my mind off of tomorrow – a giveaway!

Objects of Beauty

It will come as no surprise to any of you that I love pretty things. Detailed things. Creative things. Objects that spark the imagination, or add the perfect touch to something.

It’s a thrill when I discover such an object (and sadly doesn’t happen very often).

Nutmeg Scones

 

I don’t know about the rest of you, but when short, cold, gray days arrive in January, I really don’t feel like being healthy. If I’m honest, I feel like unhealthy, warming, comforting scones. Paired with coffee. Or a book. Or both.
