Before football season even began this year, OU was on my mind. As you can imagine, just thinking of OU is a disturbing idea in our household, as I am from Nebraska (Go Huskers!) and my hubby is a huge OSU fan. But sometimes you make sacrifices to help a friend, and since my buddy [...]

Hope you are all enjoying your family, friends, and some FOOD today!!
Check out these Thanksgiving cuties I found on a fellow baker’s website! Learn how to make them from Bakerella. She’s a VERY talented girl…I love how her baked goods are just as much art as they are food!

Happy Turkey Day!

In September, I started a cupcake adventure. If you haven’t read about it yet, you can do so here.

Last month, I offered to donate cupcakes to an event. Since I wanted them to have a nice variety of flavors (and because I promised myself I’d make all 113 recipes in the book), I decided to [...]

…wait…no, it’s not! But that doesn’t mean it’s too early to start thinking about Christmas and all the gifts you’ll be buying for your loved ones!
Why not invest in a unique, hand-crafted book that will easily become a treasured keepsake? For this holiday season, I’m offering two options: Custom or Collection

My husband Andrew had never been to New York City before, so I planned a trip for the two of us as a celebration of his birthday (September 29). We saw so many sites and famous landmarks and even got to watch a Yankees game and a live taping of David Letterman’s Late Show!
We did [...]

By now, you’ve seen the books I made for three of my five bridesmaids: Allison, Zoe, and Jacee. Book #4 was for my sister Arica (fyi: it’s pronounced like Erica).
Making Arica’s book proved to be the most challenging. Arica is a very talented writer and loves to journal, so through the years I have made [...]

Jacee is one of my dearest friends, so it was only natural to choose her to be my Maid of Honor when I got married this past May. For the last two weeks, I’ve shown you the books I’ve made for Zoe and Allison, two of my other bridesmaids.  Today’s post is showcasing the book [...]

My cousin Zoe and I have been friends since we were born. Zoe’s just five months older than me and despite the fact that we grew up in opposite parts of the world (Me: Nebraska, Zoe: Indonesia) we’ve always been close. Naturally, I chose her to be my Matron of Honor when I got married [...]

I believe that a journal is a timeless gift. And creating them by hand is an act of love. While I was planning my wedding, it was very important to me to choose bridesmaids’ gifts that I knew my friends would like, as well as something that would reflect their uniqueness and also be something [...]
