I’m glad you all enjoyed my 2012 book list! Looking forward to crossing off some stellar reads. My weekend was filled with a lot of writing (some new thoughts and direction on my book have me very excited). On Saturday, Bobby and I took a break from our to-dos and visited Crofton On Wells.

To Read In Twenty Twelve
You all know I’m a big fan of reading and writing, but so far my talk of books has been limited to reviews and random polls of what you’re currently reading. After a morning filled with Pinterest – a dangerously addictive site – I’ve decided it would be fun to create a “to-read” list for […]
I’m A Proud Wife
Last night was the perfect occasion for dusting off a bit o’ bubbly. (Note: I wasn’t joking about dusting it off. Clearly, it had been biding it’s time. Still delicious, though!)

I Am Mellow.
On Tuesday I was given the opportunity to participate in a tasting of Starbucks new Blonde Roast coffee. As a Starbucks fan, in addition to being one who never shies away from a cup o’ joe, I happily made my way to the location on Oak and Rush with Jill to see what all the […]
Someone Special Turns Sixty
January 11 is a big day in the Korducki family. Not one, not two, but three of the men have birthdays! My godfather, Uncle Bob, my cousin Jake (who also happens to be Bob’s son) and none other than the fantastic Papa Bender, who is Jake’s godfather. I’m not certain on the odds of having […]
