Our New Blog, Well...sort of


The Owl recently came to visit California (as seen above) and we didn't mention the blog once. Then, after she returned to her mid-western home and I began to miss her terribly she called to say we should mix it up - the blog was uninspired in the format we had decided on and we needed to make a change for the sake of the oh-so important blog-land.

No longer will this be a blog solely about crafts. Neither of us are really sure how it is going to go but I am kind of excited about it. I have daydreamed that it will become much like our conversations on long drives about music, art, life, politics, and such. I don't know if we are actually brilliant in those moments or if the sound of The Avett Brothers in the background just makes us high so happy and giddy that everything seems brilliant and wonderful.

When I blog now will I take cues from the fantastic Mindy Kaling (who is one of the great bloggers here) and tell you about my materialistic life? Or will I be more like this blog and try and use this space to inspire change? Or will I disguise a blog about other blogs as a blog about my personal blogging style? (I just wanted to see how many times I could use the word "blog" in a sentence.)

Anyway, I miss the Owl, I miss the mid-west, I miss the beach which is so close and so far, and I am currently in LOVE with my new MiGo mug. Every time regulars come into that-semi-evil-coffee-chain-I-work-at and don't have a reusable travel mug it makes me want to mess up their drink. Don't worry, I never do but the thought crosses my mind: "No sugar free vanilla syrup for YOU!"

Thanks for reading,
The Snail
