Around Town…

by gidget fun

While I’ve been away from this space, I’ve been elsewhere a bit… I recorded a podcast with Tsh from Simple Mom which was really fun. You can get the details and listen over on Home Fries. This was a bit surreal when I thought about how three years ago when I started blogging I never [...]

365 Project: January’s Calendar

by gidget family

I’ve been having so much fun with the 365 Project. Every couple of days I go back to my phone and camera and choose a photo to represent each day (because let’s be honest, I’m not organized enough to do this every day like you’re supposed to). Some days I can’t choose just one, so [...]
