House #3: Meridian-Kessler Painted Brick Ranch

Our “true mid-century modern” was entirely too far away, on the western edge of Meridian-Kessler (according to Google Maps Highland-Kessler). So we moved our search east in the hopes of a better location. We found this painted brick ranch in what Google Maps is calling North Crows Nest. To me, since its

Etsy is being flooded with indie polish, handmade polish made by individuals. Most of the polish collections are designed around a certain theme, and are free of the most harmful chemicals.

House #1: Castleton Mid-Century Ranch

It’s time for the fun part, going out and actually looking at houses. We combed through Zillow, Trulia, and Realtor.com to find homes that were interesting to us. Homes that met some of our criteria, and were worth compromising on the criteria they didn’t meet. The first one we went to look

Can Joss Whedon get me to enjoy Shakespeare?

NOTE: This is in no way a review of the 2012 movie Much Ado About Nothing I, like many others in the geek culture, am a Joss Whedon junkie.  I was introduced to the Whedonverse with Firefly (unfortunately after it had been canceled and Serenity had already been made).  I loved it

Product Review: Ogio Brooklyn Tablet Purse

I carry an absurd amount of stuff with me when I’m on a blogging assignment. My iPad, phone, battery backup, pens, a notebook, all the things a good blogger should have on hand at any given time. Finding a purse that was able to carry all those things, and not look like
