I drink too much coffee and write books. I love owls and thrift stores. I have a fiance, who is affectionately known as Hunky McGorgeous, aka Mr. Owl, aka Big Hunk. It's not too much of a secret that I adore him to no end.

Black Roses

This dress totally does not show up as green as it is! I absolutely love the color in real life; it’s an emerald-turquoise color that just reminds me of spring and fresh greenery. But my camera’s...

The Brooch Girl

Back when I was a barista, many of my customers knew me as the brooch girl, because I was always wearing the various pins that I have been collecting. One regular even bought me three brooches he...

Seeing dots
