I came across a mustard yellow moth, perched on the sash of a window. Had it not been perched on a white windowsill, it otherwise may have been overlooked. But I gently prodded his wings open and LO! Moral of the story? You don’t know what beauty, talent and creativity is lurking beneath until you … More One To Grow On
Griswold got front row, center seats to see “The Chipmunks” live:
On 48 Hours Mystery, a mom explains why she was suspicious of her daughter’s new love interest. Thanks for the vote of confidence, Mom! I’ll refrain from further remarks about instilling daughters with self-esteem so they don’t run off with abusive cads. Oh. Wait. Never mind. https://kambricrews.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/IMG_3048.mov
I’ve tuned in to two episodes of “Here’s the Thing” hosted by Alec Baldwin on NPR and find it immensely listenable. I actually ran a 10K (6.2 miles) yesterday listening to the interview with Lena Dunam. Listening to two people chat thoughtfully might not seem like a good running companion, but I was completely engaged … More “Here’s the Thing” with Alec Baldwin
My favorite body polish by Fresh costs $65 for a 14 oz jar! (GULP!) It’s heavenly. It exfoliates gently, smells…well…fresh, and leaves my skin feeling like silk. It’s ridiculously overpriced and not something I splurge on very often. Instead, I perfected a recipe that could pass any side-by-side comparison and have been using it during every bath … More DIY: Brown Sugar Body Scrub
Lush makes the best bombs in my opinion (Phoenix Rising is heaven on earth to me), but there is no Lush store near me. Bombs are a little extravagance I treat myself to on a rare occasion because at the average cost $7 a plop that adds up! They’re super easy and cheap to make. How have I … More DIY: Bombs Away! Bath Fizzy Recipe
So, I’m guessing everyone reading this already knew that baking soda cleans chrome like new. WELL NO ONE TOLD ME! I just learned this today and am now looking for anything and everything with a shiny surface to scrub! Okay, so I received my birthday gift to myself in the mail today. A vintage Swing-A-Way … More Baking Soda Chrome Cleaner
I am constantly sniffing and blowing snot and fighting off Paquita’s aggressive attempts lick it out for me. (What is it with dogs and snot?) Christian has sinus issues, too, so I found a recipe on Pinterest for making homemade shower soothers (they used to have these by SudaCare in stores and no longer carry … More DIY: Sinus Soothers
Happy birthday to me! And my mom and my sis-in-law. As a gift to us all, I made a bunch of indulgent little gifts. First and BEST, I made some brown sugar body scrub to mimic my favorite body polish by Fresh that costs $65 for a 14 oz jar! (GULP!) It’s heavenly. It exfoliates gently, … More Bath & Birthday Works
While Christian hobnobs in LA (go see him perform!), I’m rounding out the last week of my month at the Rock House. Without the option of hundreds of restaurants and take-out menus all within a few blocks, I’ve had to seek out new things to cook for myself. I can only enjoy my Chicken Tortilla Soup … More Roasted Avocado & Couscous Salad
