happy accidents
{the mausoleum} Do you know what a happy accident is? Well, in case you don’t, it’s like when you stumble across something completely unexpected, and it’s completely wonderful too. For instance, when you find the absolute most perfect pair of shoes, and they end up being like, 30% off… voila… happy accident. Something like that…

the end of summer
{long gone lavender} How do you spell ‘exhausted’? S A R A L O U I S E That’s how. It has been one big doozy of a summer. And I know I touched on the whole, summer has been long gone, thing on my last post, but for me, it literally ended like, last…

style: fall edition
I am much obliged to Champagne Blonde for passing on this Stylish Blogger Award to me, it’s given me a nice little segue between Texas, and life back in Le Petit Village.(Since she passed it on to me, she has actually started a new blog called 2onplateaus… that’s how long it can take me to post one of these,…

Some Down Home Texas Goodness
How do you end a trip to Texas (and the subsequent blog posts)? With some down home Texas fun with friends at the rodeo (Did that sound folksy? I was going for folksy.) The county fair and rodeo was being held Labor Day weekend and just around the corner from my mother’s house so of…

{Texas BBQ} You would think that me being from Texas, and Papa being all about the hunting, that The Husband and I would be knee dip in camouflage, but nope, we’re not hunters. But somehow we still found ourselves at a hunting exposition in Texas (a friend was putting it on), which was kind of…

tacos & the walmart
I had tried to prepare The Husband for the heat but I don’t think he was aware of how truly hot Texas can get, especially this summer (it was a scorcher… literally). All he wanted to do was sit in the pool all day, everyday. Fine with me, that gave me some one on one time with…

we're hunting wabbit
We interrupt my regularly scheduled Texas posts for this post of scandalous happenings in Le Petit Village. (Our little village sure does get a lot of action, doesn’t it?) You see, the week before we left for Texas, The Honey house was robbed. They were out working with the bees and came home to find…

Me in Texas (an introduction)
{source} My, my, my, how do you write a post as big as Texas? A little bit at a time, that’s how (and with absolutely no idea where to begin, hence the reason there’s been nary a peep from me for a week). So since I’ve been having a hard time getting this going, I’m…
