Link Here  In highschool I birthed a poem, which then transformed into a book. It took me a couple years into college, where I put together the graphics. I doodled, and collaged. The pages were actually super thick. My dad came by with his fancy camera and helped take pictures properly. Publishing. How the heck do you publish a book? I had zero idea. I did some research but sat on it for quite some time. I tried a couple different platforms but @kdp_amazon_publication was the one. Super easy - so here is my inspiration gift to anyone sitting on...

  Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice! 👻 He's back (and in triplicate)! First a pumpkin, then some chalk art, and now...a Beetlejuice baby! I told you I'd deliver all three! 🎃 Spooktober has been treating me well so far, though we haven't hit up a haunted house yet. Tonight's the night! 😈 I just LOVE the Halloween vibe. Big shout out to everyone who goes all out with the decorating, creating, and spooky scenes. One of my favorite things is cruising around and checking out everyone's Halloween spirit. Sadly, I see less and less of it every year, so I extra appreciate...

  🎃 Pumpkin Playtime (and a Spooktacular Discount!) 🎃 It's officially October, which means one thing: PUMPKINS! 🧡 I've been having a blast playing with these festive gourds, although I'm holding off on the carving for now...don't want any rotten surprises before Halloween actually arrives! This Spooktober has been a whirlwind of creativity – I'm officially on a roll! But let's be real, I'm the worst at keeping up with these blog posts. Does anyone even read them? 🤔 (And don't even get me started on my marketing skills...this website could use a serious dose of something.) But hey, for...

Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice! (and a Touch of Chalk Dust) The other day we took a trip to the Netherworld (aka the movie theater) to see the new Beetlejuice movie, and wow, what a trip THAT was! 🤯 Beetlejuice has always been one of my all-time favorite Halloween guys. He's crude, he's hilarious, he's a total trickster, but deep down, you know he has a heart (somewhere under all that grime and chaos). He's a little rough around the edges, but boy, does he know how to put on a show! This new movie? Well, it was like Beetlejuice with ADHD....

Chalk Art makes everything better #zanochalk Last week we went and watched "Inside Out 2".  A very powerful movie. They do a really good job of capturing the brain. The first movie captures little Rules brain, growing up, going through changes, facing tough situations, and overcoming obstacles. The second movie focuses on the changes of the teenage brain facing puberty. I kept looking over at my daughter, thinking omg this makes sense! The rush of hormones, the pressures of fitting in, peers dominating over family, and anxiety.  For those who have not seen the movie yet. I highly suggest watching...
