Sassy Librarians Unite
I first worked in a library when I was in junior high. Volunteering at my school library led to a high school job at our local Carnegie Library. When I moved to Dayton, I ended up working in the Archives and behind the circulation desk at my university’s library. I also spent time working for…

Sweater Lust
I spend downtime on Polyvore and Pinterest. Not that I have copious amounts of downtime, but those two places easily fit into a few minutes of downtime here and there.

Do You Remember Wearing Garanimals?
When I was in elementary school, I loved my Garanimals. In looking at the website, Garanimals was born the same year I was and they are one of my fond childhood memoires. My mom used to take me shopping at JCPenney and I could mix and match the different animal tags to find the perfect…

Kidless Dinner Out
Few things I love more than a dinner out where forbidden carbohydrates are involved. I have tried to be Paleo and my major downfall is pasta. It doesn’t matter what kind because I find all kinds delicious. If I’m going to be naughty and eat pasta, I like it to be really worth the guilt.…
