PODCAST GRADUATION AND SUMMERTIME

It’s Been a Minute… But I’m Back! Hey there, crafty crew! I know it’s been a little while since my last blog post Spreading a Little Joy—One Egg at a Time! This Easter, I had the absolute joy of donating some fun prizes and crafty goodies to a local daycare’s Easter egg hunt—and let me tell you, it felt so good to give back. The event was held to raise money for the Make-A-Wish Foundation, a cause that’s incredibly close to my heart. Knowing those little eggs and prizes helped bring in support for such a meaningful mission? Pure magic. I heard the kiddos had a blast—tiny feet running, giggles echoing, and arms full of candy and prizes. That’s what it’s all about, right? Making memories, spreading kindness, and maybe adding a little sparkle to someone’s day (or basket!). Moments like these remind me why I love being part of a community that cares. Here's to more joy, more giving, and more egg goodies Mother’s Day prep (you know how it goes… glue guns blazing and glitter everywhere!)...

HAPPY ST PATRICK'S DAY

Oh, you bet your lucky shamrock I’m writing a blog about fun St. Patrick’s Day facts! Get ready for a pot of golden nuggets, from why St. Patrick’s original color was blue (what?!), to how Ireland once banned pints on Paddy’s Day (gasp!). Stay tuned—this blog is going to be more festive than a leprechaun at a céilí! St. Patrick’s Day was historically a "dry holiday" in Ireland because it was considered a solemn religious feast day. Alcohol Ban: From 1927 to 1979, Irish law prohibited pubs from opening on March 17th due to the holiday's religious significance. Who Was Affected: Bars and pubs across Ireland were legally required to close, though hotels were sometimes exempt. Change in 1979: The ban was lifted, and pubs were allowed to open, reflecting the shift of St. Patrick’s Day from a strictly religious occasion to a more festive, public celebration. Since then, St. Patrick’s Day has become a major cultural and international event, widely associated with parades, public...
