I wont say exactly how often I go into Michael’s craft store (a whole lot and we’ll leave it at that. Ha!), but stumbling on these candy sticks that look like twigs totally sparked the idea to do candy apples. I could probably go out to my back yard and get real sticks to put […]

Today marks the end date to my 101 in 1001 and I have some very mixed feelings about it. First of all, if you don’t know what 101 in 1001 is, it’s a list of 101 things to accomplish in 1001 days. I made my list (which took all day of some hard thinking and a […]
