What's your dream? Is it to create outfits inspired by your nerdy nature and then talk about them with your friends? Then we *might* share a dream. I stumbled upon the #Disneybound Instagram challenge in March of 2019, and with zero preparation, jumped in the day it started. My first unplanned snag … [Read more...]
Darla Disneybound from Finding Nemo
"I get a fishy! Fishy, fishy, fishy! Fishy? Fishy! Wake up! Wake up!" It's that terror of a child that gets Nemo's aquarium buddies into a tizzy. Fishbait is about to become his namesake when Darla enters the Dentist's office. This Darla Disneybound is easy and clever. Since I had braces when I … [Read more...]
Hawaiian Hammer Cocktail
Cheers to tropical vibes and the summer season cranking forward. I recently did the math on our calendar and we're exactly halfway through our summer break.

Bo Peep Dapper Disneybound for Toy Story 4 (with spoiler free review)
If Toy Story 3 made you ugly cry and sob, Toy Story 4 will tickle your funny bone. I haven't laughed so hard, or so often, at a movie in quite a while. Did you see Wreck it Ralph 2? I hardly thought a movie could be more self-aware than that, but Josh Cooley brings an awareness to Toy Story 4 that … [Read more...]
Why Crafting Forky Made Me Love Him
So, true story: I wasn't in love with Forky. I thought his name was silly (he's a SPORK, after all), and he looked, well, cheesy and panicked. But the trailers continued to stream, the movie release date got closer, and suddenly as if by pixie dust magic, a small box appeared on my … [Read more...]
One Pot Wonder Steak and Herb Potatoes
Forget that Game of Throne saying... Summer is almost here! I'm in need of quick cooking, family-friendly meals with little clean up as the kiddos come home from school. Summer vacation means more family time, adventures, camps and even pool time. While I can get lazy with my cooking, this one-pot … [Read more...]
