Awful at Blogging. Please continue

Hello everyone who's...maybe reading this. I've always been a nerd and it's been reported they're not popular. When I say nerd, I mean it, I got in a debate about Harry Potter yesterday and I saw an article about your spit converting to energy to power your phone and it just...it's so cool. Anyway, despite my obvious unpopularness, I feel I owe it to people who may actually anticipate something from me to accept my sincerest apology for being an awful blogger. I'll get better, I promise. New vegan recipes and all that. Maybe some fitness stuff. And, of course, lots of nerdy things. Thanks for reading!

Spectacular, Spectacular!

Had a spectacular moment of clarity today. I, of course, bought Frozen and have now watched it 5 times...that includes going to the theater twice. Anyway, I've gotten into the idea of Jack Frost and Elsa being together. So, looking through all of the deviantarts out there, I had a thought. What if this is more like a Wicked tale? What if Jack Frost had an affair with the queen (Anna and Elsa's mother) and that's why she was born with powers? Mind blown, right?! Just as Elphaba's mother had an affair with the "wizard" who turned her skin green! AND, to top it all off, IDINA MENZEL. She plays both Elphaba and Elsa. Hold on, gotta take deep breaths.........whew. Now onto fan girling over the idea. Discuss! And talk to you soon!

Vintage Iron in Cedar Falls, IA #3

Vintage Iron part 3! I am a mug nut. I have so many we had to put them out on our island at home because they no longer fit in the cupboard. :D There's a lot of Batman. That being said, I would like to introduce the hand warming mug!


We have some for left hand and right handed people. You get to stick your hand right in there and feel the warmth spread. These are hand made and incredibly beautiful, as you can see. A gift for the special lady/fella in your life! We also have butter plates, dip bowls, tumblers, pie plates, and cookie plates from the same company if you're looking for some variety. Can't wait to see you here! ;)

Toilet paper owls


Super easy to make! Use a toilet paper roll, fold down one end to make "ears", paint a color of your choice, and paint on a face. :) Way cute! You can hang them or just place them around your house.
