I'm a young married, sometimes tragically hip and sometimes just tragic lady with a taste for the homemade. That means I can be bribed with almost anything made with a little bit of love and time. Basically, if you read my blog you will get to read about all of the things I do (or try to do around the house), my crafty projects, my random rants and thoughts about day to day life being a married 20 something.
