I’ve really been enjoying our new house this spring. It seems like new flowers are popping up each week. I recently discovered that I have some tulips in my yard.

Welcome to Coffee Talk, where I’ll join you each week to talk about some of the interesting things going on in the world and around the web. Back to the 90s JNCO Jeans popped up in my Facebook feed. You know the ones I’m talking about. Those massively wide-leg jeans that we all wore in…
Read More#Project52 – Selfie
This week’s #EverydayProject52 challenge was the selfie. It’s something I could certainly use more practice with, as I always seem to take 20 bad ones for each good selfie.
