Back to School

It’s true. I did not quit my job to be a unemployed slacker, there was a reason, and the reason is my return to school so I can re-qualify as a laboratory scientist in California! Yeah! I am very excited, but that is of course partly because I am a super nerd who loves school, […]

Scout Scout Scout

I am generally a very casually dressed person. Like tshirt and jeans pretty much 99% of the time. However, I recently had occasion to require something a little smarter (when I say recently, I actually mean over 3 weeks ago, (eagle eyed readers might remember it from this post) but I didn’t get around to […]

Our visitors are gone, off to San Francisco, and my spare room is back to being a den of crafting. I am starting to accept the change in weather. This certainly isn’t Britain, and as I went for a walk yesterday in shorts and a vest top and it is JANUARY, I figured I needed […]
