Silly and Cheap St. Patrick’s Day Gift Ideas
[Photo – CC Attribution – guy schmidt] Saint Patrick’s Day is Sunday, March 17, 2013. For most people, it’s a lovely excuse to drink to excess and pretend to be Irish.

Aged Books
This post deviates a little bit – it is about an anniversary gift, one that I have received. I studied economics at school, twice, and I am generally a fan of nerdy things which are related to it. The first anniversary is traditionally paper, which can seem like a pretty mundane gift without some […]

So, first off, I have to confess that I temporarily misplaced the memory card for my camera. I actually have a few examples of great projects… but they have been lost, until now! In the spirit of boats, trains, and plastic pails, here is another fun way to give a cash gift that is inspired […]
