Because there's nothing better than butter

So it started with a conversation. Well, two, actually. One about this ridiculous shirt I saw that had a secret message on it that appeared when you were sweaty, and how that just seemed wrong on so many levels. The first conversation ended up with us talking about things that we really love - really good books, delicious food, cute shoes, crafts, and butter. The second conversation picked up pretty much in the same spot - here are the cute shoes I'm wearing, here is a project I'm sewing, here's some yummy deliciousness that I made today. 

Then it hit us. We should be sharing all this. Why not on a blog? We can take turns and post things we love; namely, the things mentioned above. And who knows what else. We promise - the only sweating happening here will be over a stove or sewing machine - or in the name of fashion. 

So here's a start. We also love to travel - and I'm in one of my favorite food towns ever - Chicago. Random side note - if you ever want fantastic people watching, take the Amtrak. And then sit in the dining car and try to not sing "Snow" from "White Christmas". I'll try to take lots of pics and share all the goodies I find and try. But first - 

This trip is obviously going to be amazing - I brought cute shoes. ;-)
