Meeting the beautiful and talented Katherine McPhee.... Will she become a Twisted Sister?

CONTRARY TO THIS CHILD'S BELIEF, A BABY BOOMER IS NOT A TYPE OF BOMB…  Last week I was visiting a friend who was babysitting her granddaughter and out of the blue the 7 year old asks, "Are baby boomers dangerous?" We had a great laugh and it got me thinking of...

Are you up for a challenge? I dare you to say YES for a month.

Just where will 2017 take us???? I hope you all had a fabulous Holiday. I was blessed to share it with my family in Ohio. This is the first time in 30 years that I have been home for Christmas. Naturally there was much reminiscing and one of my nephews...

Do you take your Christmas Tree Traditions for Granted? Every year I ogle over all the beautiful Christmas Trees and I think of all the wonderful memories I have of decorating them over the years with people I love. But what about the first White House Christmas Tree? If asked,...

Just when I thought I was so clever... A friend of mine asked me to create a necklace from a Pinterest Pin she found that she really liked. I'm always looking for new ideas and things to create so I was all in. Per usual, I had to order some...

I'm too old for The Dog Ate My Homework Excuse... but Gee Wiz it was just a small mistake! You may recall a few weeks back I told you about our having ISSUES with raccoons waking us up at 4 in the morning and my husband declaring war. But after my...

Only a Twisted Sister could go from Smashed Tarantulas to The Chihuly of the 1850s.

Now that's just not nice.... A few weeks back I asked you for your opinion on the marriage of a couple of my jewelry techniques. I thought I handled the negative comments quite well. I actually giggled at the Bleck comment and laughed out loud at "I don't want to...

When is a flaw not really a flaw? I hope you will take a moment to read this uplifting story.

We've had raccoon issues lately. The little buggers get on the roof at the crack of dawn and in a small crawl space start to scratch and scratch. It's right above our bed.  

Last week I asked for your opinion.... on a new technique I designed marrying the Twisted Sister with Sari Ribbon. Well, the verdict is in - sort of.  You either loved it: Interesting new twist. HA! Love, Love, Love the color. Make more! What a way to spice up a dull...

Opinions are like noses.... and we all have one but I really need yours, your opinion that is. My time the last month has been dedicated to something I really don't enjoy (you'll know soon) but it had to be done. Essentially this task has sapped the last of my...
