Was it a little chilly? Yes. Did I have a great time anyway? YES! And even though it did rain, I didn’t get wet at all.  I arrived a bit late and thus I missed the early rain.   And then when the skies opened up later on in the afternoon?

I cannot BELIEVE it’s been a whole year since the last time I was here. A WHOLE YEAR?! Okay.  Just like last year, I will be taking lots of beauty shots with my big camera and posting them here on the blog – all pretty like.  Those photos have to be edited [...] http://breidawithab.com/i-dont-own-a-grecian-urn-but-i-think-of-them-often/ http://breidawithab.com/i-dont-own-a-grecian-urn-but-i-think-of-them-often/#comments Fri, 03 May 2013 16:44:36 +0000 Breida http://breidawithab.com/?p=4571 http://breidawithab.com/i-dont-own-a-grecian-urn-but-i-think-of-them-often/feed/ 15 Did you know that I was an English Major? I was. In college.  Graduate school, too. It seems like that might have been hundreds of years ago. . . This morning I thought maybe I’d be able to smell the lilacs in my yard even though they’re not open yet.  The lilac trees are set [...] http://breidawithab.com/its-whats-for-dinner-oatmeal/ http://breidawithab.com/its-whats-for-dinner-oatmeal/#comments Tue, 30 Apr 2013 03:42:53 +0000 Breida http://breidawithab.com/?p=4507 http://breidawithab.com/its-whats-for-dinner-oatmeal/feed/ 12 After all of the years that Mr. Social Media and I have been together, we seem to have come to an understanding regarding what can become a very touchy subject in a relationship.  We have been married for 12 and a half years and together nearly 20 years (half my LIFE!) but not even the [...] http://breidawithab.com/diy-wire-baskets-get-the-look-for-less/ http://breidawithab.com/diy-wire-baskets-get-the-look-for-less/#comments Fri, 26 Apr 2013 19:08:23 +0000 Breida http://breidawithab.com/?p=4505 http://breidawithab.com/diy-wire-baskets-get-the-look-for-less/feed/ 19 I have a favorite number. If there were going to be a pop quiz about how well you know me?  That would definitely be one of the questions. What is Breida’s favorite number? (don’t worry, it’s not really a quiz) 518 I also LOVE vintage locker baskets.  (that would also be on the quiz) LOVE [...] http://breidawithab.com/wrap-your-kids-in-chicken-wire-persistence-is-the-mother-of-invention/ http://breidawithab.com/wrap-your-kids-in-chicken-wire-persistence-is-the-mother-of-invention/#comments Wed, 17 Apr 2013 17:25:07 +0000 Breida http://breidawithab.com/?p=4478 http://breidawithab.com/wrap-your-kids-in-chicken-wire-persistence-is-the-mother-of-invention/feed/ 20 I know that “necessity” is actually the mother of invention but in this case it’s really more like persistence.  Really, it was persistence that made it necessary for me to invent.  So maybe both.  Invention has two moms.  That’s so current! And  guess I didn’t really invent anything.  I just came up with a good [...] http://breidawithab.com/easters-on-its-way-come-visit-me/ http://breidawithab.com/easters-on-its-way-come-visit-me/#comments Fri, 29 Mar 2013 03:35:22 +0000 Breida http://breidawithab.com/?p=4446 http://breidawithab.com/easters-on-its-way-come-visit-me/feed/ 2 Hello Everyone! Over the last few months you might have seen me talking about my other blogging gig.  Yep.  breida with a b. is not the only place you can find Breida with a b.

If I had taken my camera (phone) or even my “real” camera down to the beach with me this morning I would have taken a picture and shared it with you.  As it was, I had no camera and had to record the image with my mind.  Remember? When that was generally the way [...]
