The fear that one experiences, that may very likely keep them plastered to their seat despite needing to get up for a number of reasons, when having to [...]

Today we’re going back to the six-word contest! It happens to be my b-day today, so I thought it would be fun to make this week’s theme “getting older”. The best entry wins this moleskin notebook with a letterpressed vintage diving lady on front. (I love her.) Be sure to enter by Tuesday morning at [...]

Lots of good entries, especially the reference to the deck chairs on the Titanic. But I think my favorite was sent in by Jill who mused:
“Going out” now means being outside.

I know the recession is a droopy subject, but you can be as funny as you like – and the best entry wins these somewhat more cheerful letterpress cards (pack of six). We’ve [...]

This was another tough choice. I loved the last entry ‘Reading wedding blogs while at work’ because I realized that any guilty pleasures story could end in ‘while at work’. Close runner up was “Watching weeds while eating Haagen Dazs”…but the winner is:
“Picnic lunch turns into sunset snacks” submitted by thisisunclear. It’s just such a [...]
