Beth Ann Chiles/ Crafting/ 12 Comments/ 716

I was finally working on cleaning up my office/craft room the other day and ran across a bag of yo-yos. Not the toy kind of yo-yos but the fabric kind. I somehow ended up with a package that my mom was working on and boy Continue reading →

What’s On My Mind

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 7 Comments/ 609

I am not alone in what is currently on my mind. Israel. I honestly have no words for my Jewish friends. I mean there is nothing that I can say. As a Christian I have never felt threatened. I have never felt like my faith Continue reading →

The Apple of My Eye on Teapot Tuesday

Beth Ann Chiles/ Tea and Teapots/ 6 Comments/ 620

Do you think parents should have a favorite child?  Just asking.  No judgment here. It’s a strange question on Teapot Tuesday, isn’t it?  But a valid one since today’s teapot is a gift from one of my daughters. Hey–wait just a cotton picking minute.  I Continue reading →

The Good Girl

I loved this book! It had my interest from the very first page and was my "airplane" book on a recent trip. Author Mary Kubica created believable and interesting characters that the reader learned to identify with and care about. Mi...
