Operation Birthday Party Surprise
It is my dear husbands 30th birthday this weekend. In honor of that milestone, I wanted to throw him a surprise birthday party. I was struggling to decide what to do, when my wonderful sister-in-law suggested that he loved Sherlock Holmes, why not do a detective Party. I liked the…

Winter is here!
I am sitting in my house listening to the wind blow like a freight train around us. It is a dreary day with grey clouds in the sky, bare trees blowing in the wind, 56 degrees, and every now and then the wind sounds more like a howl. I am…
