It’s October! And with it brings one of my favorite holidays, Halloween! While I decorated last week I am still recovering some a bit of a cold, and just now got around to photographing! I was so happy to add a few new pieces of vintage Halloween decor this year that I acquired between last…

Like most holidays, Patrick and I spent Independence Day at Disneyland. I especially was happy because I had the most perfect pin set for the occasion! I haven’t had time to work on any new parasols, so no new themed parasol for the day. However, I realized I had yet to share this one on the…

Now that Patrick and I have seen the latest Star Wars film, I felt I could now properly enjoy and appreciate all of the items from The Force Awakens that are on view at Star Wars Launch Bay and inside the various shops at Disneyland more. So, I convinced Patrick to take a long lunch…

Christmas Cheer

When it comes to decorating for Christmas, I used to be of the opinion strictly no Christmas decorating or music until the day after Thanksgiving.

April 2026 Update: After years of ups and downs and intermittent closures, Clifton’s has new owners. I hope that the change will result in more regular hours. When Patrick and I heard that Clifton’s was doing a special Thanksgiving meal we instantly decided that is what we were going to do for the holiday. I’m…
