The Lady’s got Style
I was selling my wares at our Lunenburg Farmer’s Market today, when this beautiful woman walked by. The coat, the boots, the scarf, her hair, her face, absolute perfection. The only thing missing was…. The headand, of course. I was so relieved that she agreed with me. Her name is Margaret, which is perfect because…
Lunenburg The Beautiful
Happy Monday morning. That’s a good one, right? I have been hoarding thoughts to share with you on this blog regarding parenting and evil fifth grade science fair projects and the adventures of accidentally discovering the very existence of this science fair project two days before it’s due date by way of another parent’s Facebook…
Never Too Old
I have often considered changing my business name from The Hat Junkie to the Hat Therapist. You wouldn’t believe the things I hear every time someone approaches me to look at hats…My nose is too big, my chin is too small, my forehead is too flat, I’m too fat, too skinny, too short, too…
A Slipper Slope and a True Vacation
Happy New Year. Tomorrow is back to school day for the boy and back to reality day for the mom. Fortunately, my reality is pretty fantasy. In past years, I have gone from intense hat making for orders straight into intense pajama making for my boys and, not too surprisingly, I never quite got…
The Three Muses

There’s No Place Like Work
This is where you can find me these days. All day and into the night. I have been filling orders up to my eyebrows. This is the time of year when people order Christmas presents and boutiques need those hats to arrive in time for Holiday shopping. So, the one woman sweat shop sweats on.…
Crap, Evil Pirates and a Middle aged Mom.
Last night my friend and mother to Dustin’s friend sent me this screen shot and suggested that I might want to get Dustin his own YouTube account. We do have a few internet rules, like he is not allowed to write comments on videos. I did actually put those parental controls on my account, but…
Puttin’ on the Glitz
You may not know this, but twelve years of my life were spent in Marblehead, MA. Portsmouth NH is just a hop, skip and a jump away. Such a great little town and I spent many days there. So, I’m particularly excited that Puttin’ on the Glitz at 40 Market st. is carrying my hats. …
