After years of pining away for one, I finally got around to buying myself a manual typewriter. I found this beauty on ebay and fell in love with that perfect gray-blue color. It came with its own carrying case, but…

Green Bean Casserole

Posted on: November 9, 2011 Last updated on: September 22, 2023 Written by: Reese Dixon

I had a different topic for this post in mind, but when I looked up the date and realized we’re almost through May already, I needed to toss it out for a mini-existential breakdown. Whew. Time, eh? I love hearing…

We Can Do It

I’ve spent the entire last six weeks sewing my heart out. Sustainably at first, just one project among many I’d spend my time on. A little ironing here, a little sewing there. When I started, people were still scoffing at…
