It Builds Character.

By maggie on May 31, 2013

If you are in Lancaster this summer (or even this weekend), you must visit Building Character at 342. N. Queen St.  It’s across the street from the Guild Store, so swing by there, too :) Building Character is a beautifully-organized set of warehouses that boasts 40+ shops under one roof.  Vendors offer everything from vintage [...]

Longwood Gardens Eye Candy.

Longwood Gardens Eye Candy.

By maggie on May 17, 2013

One of the best things about being a full-time mom is the flexibility to get out and do things during the weekday.  Evie and I went to one of our favorite places, Longwood Gardens, on Wednesday.  We are fortunate enough to live a little less than 20 minutes away.  We try to get there often, [...]

Soak Up The Fun.

Soak Up The Fun.

By maggie on May 3, 2013

Hello, May!  The weather in Southeastern PA has been glorious the past few days.  Fall is my favorite season, but give me a bright, sunny day when I can be outside and not drip with sweat and I’ll be equally as happy.  I’m in total denial that Mother Nature will be turnin’ up the heat [...]

File It In the Artkive!

File It In the Artkive!

By maggie on April 5, 2013

At the end of February, I shared a post entitled Drawn Together, all about the work of a certain fledgling artist who lives at my house. If you have creative hands producing things for you at a break-crayon pace, you might struggle with WHAT to do with them after they’ve run their course on the [...]

Making My Case.

Making My Case.

By maggie on March 22, 2013

I recently got an iPhone.  My next thought after the initial, “this is SWEET!” was, “I need a cool case for it!” It’s tricky with all of this tech stuff because there are thousands of options as far as accessories go.  I could have walked out with a protective case the day I left the [...]
