Honest Scrap Award

For the love of Aunt Carrie’s corset I got my first ever blog award yesterday.  My awesome friend Mary over at FitThisGirl was more than kind to award me one of her coveted 10.  ”Becci!! I am nominating you for the Honest Scrap award!! I love your blog honest and raw humor, it is refreshing!”, [...]

Yes that makes me part of the “dork force”

Just over a week ago I was on Twitter (I know you’re shocked) when I saw a conversation among some friends about books that should be read.  Now being the naturally curious person I am (okay when it comes to books I’ll jump in w/both feet) I asked the guys (the 3 talking were? are [...]

Impatience Thy Name Is…Me

As you are aware I am in the process of getting this new (and maybe improved) blog off the ground. After a promising start {in which I found the theme, learned to upload & use it, and imported all the post (and pics) from the old blog} I have run aground.

My Name is…And I’m a Twitter Addict

I joined up with Twitter sometime in 2008.  I don’t remember the date but looking back I should have written it down. Since I joined I’ve encountered not a few interesting people.  It’s been great fun meeting new people & getting to know them.  There’s really no limit to the types of personalities, backgrounds & [...]

Crotches & Scotches

Let me start by saying that this is an entirely G-rated blog.  The following is a list of words that my spell checker recommended to me when I went looking for the correct spelling of “tchotchke” also spelled “chotchke” (see “My Pink Coat for context).  Had I used any of the suggestions let alone the [...]
