How do you take your cheese? Like, are you a cheddar girl, or do you prefer your cheese stout enough to get up and walk around the room a time or two? I’m definitely both. If you call it cheese, I want to eat it, ha! Want to know what else I want to do?…
Category: The Friday Frenzy
When reading a book is just not enough! You know, when you wish you could walk INTO a book and keep the story going. The Friday Frenzy is just that…With curated collages and links inspired by the books themselves, these posts are a fun way to incorporate a little bit of your favorite tale into your everyday life. Let the stories Begin… *The platform I began the Friday Frenzy collages on closed shop and deleted all my work, yikes! I was able to at least save a photo of each collage, so if my earlier work seems a little ‘off’ that is why. I’m happy to say that I’m back up and running with the collages, and as always, the Pinterest Boards are also available, links are in each post!* Thanks for stopping by!
FRIDAY FRENZY- Wimbley the Wonder Boy
Ya’ll know I love children’s picture books. I love writing them. I love reading them. I love oogling (is that a word?) over the amazing art in them. They just make me happy. But it has been a while since I posted a Friday Frenzy featuring a picture book. Why? Because wouldn’t you know the…
THE FRIDAY FRENZY- Lola Dutch
Every once in a while I come across an illustration that I just fall in love with. This sweet little piece I found a couple of years ago on Etsy, and I don’t know if it’s the green (my favorite color) or the raindrops (I love rain), or the yellow umbrella, or the cutest little…
FRIDAY FRENZY – Chicken Wants A Nap
Sometimes you just need a nap. I’ve needed one of those for roughly the last seventeen years! Oh, I’ve had something that resembles a nap, you’ll know it as the comfy-on-the-couch, tucked-in-just-so with a blanket…albeit one that smells oddly like dried baby barf, even though there hasn’t technically been a baby in the…
Halloweensie Contest, The Little Green Witch , and How do you go out for a pumpkin and come back with a puppy?…Yep, it’s FRIDAY FRENZY!
You know what Halloween brings, right? Yesiree, it’s time for another round of SLH’s Annual Halloweensie Contest! No, not SJP, we aren’t sexing anything in the city today! Nope, not SNL either, but you are getting closer! I’m talking about SLH…the one and only, Susanna Leonard Hill, author of the fabulous newly…
FRIDAY FRENZY – Strega Nona
Who here remembers Poochie? How about those Lovable Shirt Tales? Maybe you know a little something about…
FRIDAY FRENZY – I’ll Wait, Mr. panda
If there’s one thing being a children’s book author has taught me, it’s how to wait . . . And wait . . . And wait. . . . And wait some more. But ya know what? Sometimes all that painful, excruciating, agonizing, and let’s be honest..diabolical waiting, turns out to be the…
FRIDAY FRENZY – Hug Me
So I started work on that mini flower garden that hopes to grow into a mini flower farm one day and now I’m hot, dirty, sweaty, bleeding, cursing, and just a fleck of a straw away from all out bawling…. . . Putting in a new garden will put a smile on…
FRIDAY FRENZY- My Garden
Ya’ll, I want a flower farm. I’m going to have a flower farm. Big or small, successful or not, I will have a flower farm. Do I know anything about growing flowers? Dirt. Water. Sun. Seed….. What else could I possibly need? You’re rolling your eyes and chuckling at my lack of knowledge aren’t…
FRIDAY FRENZY- Mercy Watson Goes for a Ride
My teenager just got his driver’s permit. Want to know what that looks like? Picture this…an old beat up mini-van complete with smashed in side (thank you drive through car wash), what looks like straight from the hood bullet holes (thank you Maryland road work improvement team), cracked windshield, front license plate dangling from one lone…
