Weekend in NYC

Last month one of my besties, Leah and I took off for a long weekend trip to NYC. We have three goals: see some theatre, see a friend, see basically the whole city. I thought I might share a few of my favorite places in NYC plus a few tips along the way: #1: Miss Leah in our pimped out limo . We might have rode into the city in style. This actually was a car service that her aunt recommended to us, they threw in the limo as a bribe-us-for-a-better-tip bonus . We soaked it up, and....tipped a little extra {BONUS TIP}: Get a number for a good car service before you get to the city. They cost about the same as a cab, but they come right to you! Definitely from the airport to the hotel, but even from your hotel to sightseeing it can be a great value! 2. Go to Times Square at night. Seriously, there's nothing like it. The lights, the people watching, it's all the NYC stereotypes rolled into one. {BONUS TIP Do not eat at any restaurant in Times Square. I'm sure...

Trying Something New

This post could also be subtitled Michelle does not need a new hobby. But she has one. When was the last time you learned a new skill? I have been a maker/DIYer/tinkerer for as long as I can remember. Over the years I have gravitated towards certain mediums and gotten pretty good at them (paper, fabric and ink). I have dabbled in a few things that frustrated me because it didn't come easy (sculpture, jewelry making, ahem tennis ) Guys I get OFFENDED when I start something and I am not naturally good at it. It's a patience thing. A confidence thing. Not necessarily a good thing. Can you relate? Learning a new skill can be so rewarding! Using those parts of your body or your brain that are dormant can be such a high. Picture a crossfitter who works out like crazy for three months and can FINALLY turn over a huge tire (or climb a wall, or whatever crazy things cross fitters endeavor to achieve). That's an amazing feeling! Not that I would know about flipping over ...

Freebie Happy Mail

Hey friends, how are you doing? That is a loaded question this month, isn't it? Like many of you I have been trying to follow the news, stay healthy, do my job, keep my connections (friends and family)....all while trying to NOT to panic and feel a bit helpless. It is a LOT. Like many of you, I have craved a way to connect to my loved ones in this new way of 'social distancing'. For me that includes: Facebook, Facetime, and good old fashioned HAPPY MAIL . Many years ago my shop sold only handmade cards and stationery. I created the hastag #happymailisthebestmail on IG just celebrate the joys of snail mail. I still send a lot of cards in the mail - birthdays, holidays, just because - it's my favorite way to show my loved ones I am thinking about them. What better time than RIGHT NOW to send a card to someone you love? All you need is a pen, a stamp and a little time (and we all have a little more time at home, don't we?). Over the weekend I created a set of pr...
