Hopelessly Devoted.

Remember when Sandy sang this song in the movie Grease? Hopelessly devoted to you...

Well some mornings, more than others, I feel hopelessly devoted to my cup of coffee, in my favourite mug, in my favourite chair, doing my favourite thing- quietly listening to the world go by, hearing the clocks tick, drawing (this morning colouring my Grown-Up Colouring Sheets)... especially on a chilly Friday morning. I usually start my day the same way, every day. If for some reason my routine gets messed up, I need to be somewhere early, I have extra work to do, etc. My day usually ends up being a gong show. So as I get older, I'm learning to be wiser... I get up a little earlier so I can enjoy those precious morning moments... It does my soul good.

I hope your Friday started in your favourite way and ends in your favourite way today :)

For the Love of Coffee!

Um, YUM. I think coffee is keeping me sane these last couple of days!

I have been totally overwhelmed with the response to our Africa trip planned for 2015.
Not sure if you noticed, but my "Keep Missie Caffeinated" button (over there ->) has been changed to: "Living life on Purpose Africa 2015" All donations will be going to directly to that! Please keep that in mind when you find a print you love.  $1, $2, $3 or $4 and maybe even more- any amount counts so please donate  :) (if you haven't read about this incredible journey- you can read all about it here: It's Time for Africa.)

And in the midst of this whirlwind and all of the craziness that is happening- I couldn't forget about free printables-  and when better than today- being tomorrow is Friday, so TGIF!

P is for Panda

Currently abiding in the home of the Panda. Have I seen one yet? no... will I before I leave? not in their natural habitat - maybe at the zoo if I can convince the mister to spend the afternoon there one day.

But I've got pandas on the brain... so I thought I'd share :) I think this would be super cute in a kids room, or even in a bathroom. I wouldn't hesitate to print it off for just about anywhere :) But I'm slightly biased.

TGIF and remember P is for Panda :)

Home. Wherever I'm With You.

The Mr. and I have lived all across Canada- we've been settled for the past 8 years in a little community in Québec - let's just say my French has improved significantly! If I want to do anything, -bank, doctor, groceries, I get to do it in French. Want to know what I am best at? Ordering pizza. I can do it without a hitch- I know- something to be proud of eh?!

Of the little bit I have learned in life, this I know is true;  home is wherever you are with the one(s) you love. So this song and this print, are huge for me. I have been away from my family (miles and miles and miles away) for a long time... but when I'm with Duy, I feel like I'm home, and that can be anywhere...

So incase some of you are in the same boat as me... this song + print are for you too!

Because Sometimes I Need a Reminder...

I often need a reminder to keep my thoughts on positive things, don't get bogged down in negativity. (seriously!)
This one is for me! It's a reminder to keep things that are; true, honest, just, pure, lovely and good on my mind. Sweep out the crap thoughts, and keep GOOD thoughts.

Feel free to print it if you need a reminder every once in awhile too :) 
Remember you are not alone!
Please Pin this, and tweet this and share this on Facebook! I'd like to spread a little positivity today- and I NEED your help!

Oh yes, and I almost forgot- TGIF! :) Thank God It's Friday! There you go, something GOOOD to think about :)

iPad. Oy!

iOS7. Tricky stuff when you want to add photo wallpaper to your iPad. It decides itself (geez this technology is getting closer to having a brain than I like. Remember Hal? from Space Odyssey 2001- I've asked Siri if she knows him, or is in any way related- her words: 'No comment, Missie'. This made me even more nervous- lol) I digress- The iPad decides where it should go and how it should look. Oy!

Because all of my photo were wonky and weird and HUGE, I decided to figure out exactly what I needed to create the perfect iPad wallpaper. It took me longer than I thought it would, but here is what I am going to call, The Ever Growing Collection, of iPad iOS7 wallpaper :)

These are not printables, these are downloadable for your iPad, they are LARGE- but they ought to work perfectly if you've updated your iOS.

A little coffee, a little love, a little holiday spirit: 

Keep Checking back!

I've noticed that for me- I love an image for my Lock Screen page, but for my Home page with all of my apps on it, I prefer something a little less busy- I will be adding to this collection!

Maggie Taylor, this one is for you! I believe the request was:
A coffee mug of Christmas cheer
with a spray of hearts coming out the top like sparkly love!
Challenge accepted? Go! I went. LOL

A One of a Kind Merry Christmas!

Good Friday Morning to you all! I hope your week has been wonderful and that you are excited about your upcoming weekend!

I know I have had chalkboards on the brain lately (and again today) but I wanted to share this one (last one?) with you. This one is a unique printable. There is no other font that is exactly like this one. This was hand lettered by me :) and I love it. I wanted to share it with you.

I hope when you look at this print you will know that I am wishing you a Very Merry Christmas!

Share the love,
M.

Also I've created a few christmas desktop organizers of for you to spread Christmas cheer you can find those here in our FACEBOOK EXCLUSIVES. If you haven't liked us on Facebook you can do that right now to keep up to date on all of the new prints and what is happening here at the studio!

These Are A Few Of My Favourite Things... tra la la!

Happy Friday! In the USA it is Black Friday- the largest shopping day of the year, and I guess the day that kicks off the Christmas season (?)

Were you in the shops today?

Every once in awhile a company will have Black Friday sales up here in Canada- but for the main part, it is just plain Friday- and I'm ok with that!

I hope your Friday is amazing, if for not other reason than it is Friday!
Share the love and your favourite things,

Coffee. That's what's up.

Good Friday Morning! I am sitting here enjoying my cup of coffee- I am currently a french press girl.  I solely brew Kicking Horse Coffee*. I love the smooth deep flavour- if you haven't tried it, you should. My blend is the 454 Horsepower.

But this french press poses a problem, as the hubby doesn't know how to make it, nor does he want to learn. So no more waking up to the smell of freshly ground and brewed coffee... He flat out refuses to learn. He had just got the hang of the machine, and I then tried the french press. Seriously, I was hooked. I guess its my nobody's fault, really.

So how do you brew your coffee? I am looking for new ideas - share in the comments below!

Happy Friday!
