While perusing the “round table” line-up at Alt Summit SLC, this caught my eye: “Growing and Maintaining a Small Blog with Pride”. I immediately clicked on the speaker’s name. And I’m so glad I did, because it brought me to this beautiful lady: This beautiful lady is Tiffanie Turner, of corner blog I connected with Tiffanie [...]

Whenever commenters on my blog list links to their blogs, I try – as often as I can – to take a look. While I respond to each and every comment I receive, I also want to give a fellow blogger the courtesy he or she has shown me by reading my blog and taking [...]

So much good stuff to share, I couldn’t wait till Monday! I’ve been thrilled to discover that children’s clothing is so much more stylish now than when I was shopping for Chelsea and Conor back in the day. And CHaLK nyc is a perfect example of how far things have come. CHaLK nyc is the creation of [...]

Well, almost empty. I actually thought I had shared this with you already – oops! This is a good one – and so easy. If you use jarred mustard, here’s a great tip for getting every last drop out of that little jar. When there’s about one to two teaspoons of mustard left in the jar (you’ll [...]

I know – heavy stuff for a Monday morning. When I decided to launch this new series last month, my goal was – and is – to not only introduce you to great bloggers, authors and “creatives”, but to impart some meaningful information that you would not otherwise find here at D D and D. [...]

I’m as much a fan of this week’s favor-“ette” as I am of its creator! The last card holder I bought was way back in 2003, when I had my landscape design business cards printed. I got it at J. Crew (of course), in green (of course), and it’s been with me ever since. Well [...]

I’m so excited to introduce this new series to you all! I really love collaborating with other bloggers – especially when they can share their expertise and offer something a little different from the “usual” topics you’ll find here. “I Can’t/She Can” (and maybe a “he” once in a while?) will do just that, and [...]

Today’s “blove” is yet another example of what a gift blogging has been to me – specifically when it comes to connecting with people whose paths I never would have crossed otherwise.
