Happy October!! It’s probably the most favorite month in the United States and is celebrated across the country with fall festivals, corn mazes, and more. Leaves are just starting to change colors and folks are planning their leaf-peeping trips. I’m always checking the fall color report for both Wisconsin and Illinois. Luckily we’ve got a…

Wow! Our temperatures plunged from 80 degrees down to 50 degrees at night. What a shocker to my system! LOL. And of course, we’ll be back up to 80-degree temps early next week. Welcome to Illinois weather – I’m used to it at this point. Since it got so cold last night, I had to…

What started out as a surprise for my hubby ended up being a gift for myself. It wasn’t intentional, I swear. I bought a primitive cat painting for my husband and had an a-ha moment on how to make a tobacco basket picture frame for it. My husband is a big cat lover and…
