Kim’s Favorite Things 2024

a 24 ounce red wawa cup under a hazelnut coffee urn

In the spirit of last year’s Kim’s Favorite Things (and as a protest over how unattainable some of Oprah’s picks are – a $200 stovetop popcorn popper where you still have to stir the popcorn yourself??) here are this year’s…

Friday 5: And the world laughs with you

Happy Friday, which is also National Cranberry Relish Day. I don’t recognize that photo at all because my preferred cranberry side comes in a can and has ridges on the side of it. I’ve been absent for a while. I…

Valentine’s Day cards 2024

three homemade valentine's day cards. They are embossed, lightly inked with pink ink over the embossing, and have a red heart in the middle

I bought a LOT of craft supplies during the thickest part of the COVID pandemic, and because I was sad (pandemic) I barely used any of it. So other than cardstock, tape, and glue, this year I want to use…

Holiday Movie and Special Roundup – 2023

Movie poster for Hallmark's holiday hotline. She's in red, wearing a telephone headset. He's wearing brown because this movie starts at Thanksgiving and is on his phone.

Happy New Year, friends! May it be kind to us all. Steamboat Willie is now part of the public domain so you’d better believe I’m using him here on the blog! We consumed a good amount of holiday media between…

Hello!

About Me

I've been blogging for over twenty (2 decades! 2-0!) years and I'm apparently one of the few over-50 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun, and unprofitable. No big. However, if you're from Disney, Doritos, or Dave Matthews Band, I'm open to talk about selling out.

I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dog Murphy. I'm an adult who likes Disney but not a Disney Adult. I used to work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia, but since March of 2020 I'm a work from home hermit. So if you're looking for a childless, slightly round, marginally boring GenX woman's blog to follow, you've come to the right place! :)
