My Year with Martha!

January 29, 2013  Musings | Uncategorized

 

Remember when I met Martha?

Well ever since then, I knew it was destiny that our paths would cross again – we are both Jersey girls after all.

 

My BFF Martha Stewart and I are joining forces for “12 Months of Martha”!

 

Every month, I’ll anxiously peer out my window searching for the mailman to deliver a surprise package from Martha …

 

and starting tomorrow, I’ll share a Martha inspired project every month throughout the year.

I’m still waiting for my invitation to Skylands …

Martha, if you’re reading this, call me.

Follow me on Instagram for sneak peeks and my other adventures.

    12 months of Martha sounds like fun. When she invites you to Skylands (and you know she will), you can visit me in Maine. I live across the bay from Martha.

    You must connect with Josh and Brent of Beekman 1802, their farm in upstate New York. They can give you Martha tips. Brent worked for Martha and she visited their farm. Hysterical!

    Sounds like a great series! Can’t wait to see what you have up your sleeve… Love the new profile pic btw… although I do think we should call it “Kelly” green given the situation… don’t you think!

    What a catchy post! I love a lot of Martha Stewert’s items and was very disappointed when she severed ties with K-mart. I never visit that store anymore. Hey Kelly with your social savvy skills she might just get wind of your posts and together you can form a partnership? Hey, you never know…….

    You better watch it, don’t get on her bad side. Word is that Martha has a potty mouth and can swear like a trucker when she is annoyed. So fun you and Martha have a little “thing” going!! I can’t wait to see what you two are creating together. While you are at it, ask Martha if you can take over her public appearances for a while. You would be so much more fun, you would pronounce tomato tomato and not TOHMAHTOH. And herbs are herbs and HHHHERBS! Definitely, this new thing you have going is a good thing.

    Hey! I’m a Jersey Girl too! Born and raised! I think this should include me with a invite to Skyland too! Jersey girls unite! And @ Karen, potty mouths don’t bother Jersey girls, we taught the truckers their vocabulary 🙂
