Well well well…look who it is. It’s me! I’m back after quite a hiatus, if I do say so myself. I wish I could tell you that I spent the last two weeks wandering around an island somewhere, in a bikini, with a cocktail in my hand. In reality, I was sitting on my couch, in my pajamas, with a bottle of wine in the recycling bin. Okay, okay, that’s a bit of an exaggeration. We don’t have a recycling bin.
It must be something about fall. The weather, the darkness, the pumpkin spiced lattes. Who knows. But it seems to have put me in a bit of a rut. When I get home from work I don’t feel motivated to even start making dinner, much less get started on creative projects. Which is just perfect too, because I’d really like to get started on a few Christmas project craft ideas. Not to mention, that Reuben (our Elf on the Shelf) is right around the corner. He better start getting some ideas on paper, because this girl doesn’t have a whole lot of spare time for him.
In the meantime, I figured I should stop neglecting you guys, and start sharing instead. So without further ado, I present to you: my blogging bff, Kristine from Breakfast with Bentley. We both started blogging around the same time, and quickly realized we are pretty much sisters from another mister. Well, with the exception that she’s a dog girl and I’m clearly an old cat lady. Other than that, we are basically twins.
Since she’s my fake-twin and all, she’s clearly amazing. We have that in common. What we don’t have in common is that she’s following her entrepreneurship ideas and is getting right on the track to making herself some serious cash. She started with these invitation ornaments, and quickly expanded into selling these elastic hair ties as well. They’re so cute, and the perfect birthday gift for that friend that has everything else. You can buy your own in her Etsy shop, since I was lucky enough to be gifted my own set! I mean, we are blogging besties after all.
Now, if I could only follow in her footsteps and get myself going on my own Etsy shop. I’ll just add that to the list of everything else I need to get done.

I love these hair ties! I’m still a fan of the traditional elastic ones but these ones are obviously way cuter! I have a drawer full of them.

Aren’t they adorable?! I typically keep the traditional ones on my wrist, but these are so much more fun. 😉

I think you just need a little vacation to the South East to reinvigorate your creative drive. So look forward to our visit!!! Love, Kathy

So grateful I was able to visit!! Thank you for a wonderful trip!
Kristine says
First of all, I’m a bad blogging BFF – why did I not see this sooner?! Probably because I’ve been knee deep in ornaments (and I was in a wedding over the weekend). Nonetheless, you are an AMAZING blogging BFF and this post was awesome. Thank you!
