Link to Mixed Tape from Ben

My husband is wonderful and I have mentioned before that he makes mixed CDs (not actually mixed tapes) for me for holidays and random occasions. I love these CDs so much.  Isn't a mixed CD such a thoughful gift?  I decided to share this mixed CD because I think that you can tell a lot about a person by the music they enjoy. This is a list of songs from the CD he made for me for Christmas 2009. Christmas 2009 Mix Side Note:  Ben said, "I...

The really cute Return Address/Post To labels are from the lovely blog Creature Comforts.  The fun decorative tape...

Link to 10 things about My (Atlanta) Weekend

I love Atlanta.  I really do. 10 things about my (Atlanta) weekend: I love all the beautiful houses with pretty front yard flowers and plants, fun windows and doors and front porches made for lounging.  I especially love the Virginia Highland neighborhood of Atlanta.  Not just because some of my friends live there but that helps. Around the corner from my friend's house is Paper Source.  I have loved Paper Source for some time now but mostly from online window shopping.   I seriously did not want to leave the store. We had a bridal dress appointment at 3:45 p.m. on Saturday.  This...
