After much contemplation, I have decided to add a weekly feature to Foxy. Yes, yes, I know, it's all very unorthodox of me to even consider. Generally, my posts are completely guided by whims and nothing more. Lately though, I have been intrigued by all the DIY projects out there. All those pretty pictures enticing me to come on, try me - you know you want to. Why can't I make that pom pom wreath with the deer in it I saw on Twitter? I so could make that sunburst mirror!  Origami garla... Read Full Story

Ever since I was little, I have loved Amelia Earhart. She was  independent, intelligent, passionate, fearless, and a total bad a**. Everything I wanted (and still strive) to be.  What I didn't realize, until I read this article at the Huffington Post by Mary Hall, was that she was not only an aviator but also a fashion designer. She designed her own flying suits and was one of the first celebrities to have a clothing line carrying her name. This was no licensing gig that I associat... Read Full Story

It's our default hostess gift.  I can't tell you how many times my sweetie and I have found ourselves racing to the closest packie to buy a quick gift (one which we are vastly unqualified to select) en route to wherever.  All I can tell you is that my favorite kind is a white red.  Some sort of wine that is normally red but comes in white. It's good! Anyway, these tags from Papermash make giving wine way cooler and less last minute-y. Perfect for all those dinners you will be... Read Full Story

This song brings me back. Watch the whole thing. Makes me wish I worked in an office instead of from home.  For 4 minutes and 4 seconds anyway. Spotted at Tea for Joy Read Full Story

Not for sensitive eyes, but hilarious.        Thanks to a blog I frequent, Drollgirl, I know about Bluntcards and can now send them to my friends.  You can, too! Maybe to your bridesmaids with a message about how much you love them! Read Full Story

Ah. S'mores. Crispy graham cracker, marshmallow toasted just right (I like to set the marshmallow on fire and then blow it out once it's charred), and some delicious chocolate. A perfect dessert. I even wrote a post about it. Then I stumbled onto S'more kits. DIY even, at Twig & Thistle. I just might try this myself. It involves no actual cooking or baking, and thus is right up my kitchen-phobic alley. via Twig & Thistle Read Full Story

Oh, how romantic! Just the thought of Paris gets me worked up into a frenzy. Sadly, I have never been (tragic, I know. It seems I am the only one!). The very idea of that storied city sends me into daydreamy outer space land. An elopement at the Eiffel Tower is the stuff of movies....and newlyweds Nick and Christina made it a reality.

Mochi is so yummy. Mochi (or Manju) is a sweet Japanese rice cake that traditionally is served during the Japanese New Year, but is eaten year round. The mochi is made from rice pounded into a paste and then molded into a shape. They sometimes have a filling like bean paste, strawberries, or ice cream (like the mochi at Trader Joe's), they come in all kinds of colors, and they are really, really tasty. I think they would make an awesome addition to a dessert buffet... Read Full Story
