A Cozy Easter Outfit & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #269
While it did snow here in the North Country over this past weekend, it does not look anything like these photos which were taken back in the beginning of February. All the snow has melted now and it is getting warm enough to melt the snowflakes before they start piling up and forming snow mountains. But as the snow hits the warmer ground and melts away, it merely makes mud season that much muddier. I can’t say that I miss the snow accumulation all that much, but the trade off for mud is not much better. I got on a bit of white boot kick this winter but quickly realized…

Happy Birthday, Pepsi Man! & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #267
Yesterday was Ralph’s birthday so for the next 5 1/2 weeks I am the mother of 9 and 10 year old boys. We celebrated on Saturday with a small party that did not go at as planned but resulted in Ralph getting three separate birthday parties. All Ralph wanted to do for his party was play virtual reality with his friends and family so we booked a party at Zero Latency Virtual Reality in our local mall. You can have 8 players per game and it is kind of pricey ranging from $30-50 for 30 minutes of playtime per person). Our 8 players were to be 4 adults and 4…

Outfit Remix for Road Tripping & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #263
Two weeks ago, I shared this cheerful pink sweater in my road tripping post…the road trip which I embark on today! By the time you are reading this, I will likely already be on the road en route from northern New York to the mountains of western North Carolina. A round trip of over 1,800 miles that I will traverse today and tomorrow, arriving at my destination in Tuckasegee, North Carolina, some time tomorrow evening. In that previous post, I had mentioned that this cozy turtleneck sweater would be making the trip with me. In fact, I am wearing the same road trip outfit that I said I would except…

Three ’70s Trends Made Modern & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #261
I have jumped on the ’70s trend wagon feet first with three different vintage fashions made modern by combining them into one cool contemporary look that is suitable for 2022. Actually, I hadn’t initially realized that I had combined three different fashion trends from the 1970s. I really just wanted to share this gorgeous plaid poncho that my mother-in-law gifted to me at Christmas. I suppose ponchos are so classically timeless at this point that it is easy forget the history of this ancient garment that went from a practical necessity to a statement-making fashion trend that has remained in style for over 50 years. Trend #1: The Poncho The…
