10 Unique Gifts You Can...
This is one of my favorite blogs - they find all sorts of goodies from all over the web, and send them straight to my reader.  This post, though, is worth sharing!  Wanna make a cook book from all the family's old recipes to give to your mom?  OK, you can do it.  A hardcover bound photo album - np!  All kinds of fun gifts you can make.

Thanksgiving Delusions
Alright, Thanksgiving was a hit!  Thanks so much to all of you for your encouraging words.  Very traditional meal (kinda felt it wouldn't be wise to get a crazy my first time).  We made what we could the day before and that took a huge load off on Thanksgiving.  I think everyone had a nice time and really enjoyed the food.

This isn't quite what it looked like (I knew it wouldn't be).  Heels were certainly out, as even in flats I pretty much collapsed at the end of the day.  But I wore a mustard colored Vera Wang sweater, jeans, and flats along with my favorite Amber necklace.  Easy, casual, comfortable - for a long day on my feet.

I'm an interior decorator for Bayberry Cottage - very small little store/design center in South Haven.  I'm so excited about the photos this photographer got, I had to share.  He has a great eye for interior photography.

I didn't actually buy any of the dresses in my poll because I found this fun dress in a consignment shop for $16.  I had started this looking for red shoes, but when I didn't find the right ones at the right price, I settled for the blue snakeskin which I picked up for $13 so all in all, not a terribly expensive costume, but it was pretty popular at the party - lots and lots of compliments.

Michigan State Spartans...
University of Michigan...
So, currently my sister, her boyfriend, and my boyfriend are all watching the game while I play on Kaboodle.  Here's how the conversation went:

My boyfriend:  I can't believe you're wearing green and white.
My sister:  She went to State, so it's ok.
My boyfriend:  This is my house, so she should support my team.
Me:  Whatever...bizarro sports people...
