Quirk & Work

08/09/2026

Feeling extra blessed tonight. ❤️

Friends. Family. Neighbors. New friends. Live music by the lake. Lots of laughter. And a whole bunch of people just enjoying life together.

Sometimes the best weekends aren’t about the perfect vacation or spending a bunch of money. Sometimes, it’s just about looking around and realizing… God is so good. And I am so blessed.

What’s one good thing from your weekend that you don’t want to forget?

A little Quirk + Work introduction :)

A lot of you are here for the tiny frogs, golden retriever ridiculousness, and discovering wonderfully weird parts of creation... but you may not know that Quirk + Work is also my Etsy shop!!

I create faith-inspired t-shirts, sweatshirts, and more - all centered around wonder, humor, grace, and the creativity of God.

The products are really extensions of what we talk about here... slowing down, noticing little things, laughing easily, and remembering that our Creator delights in His creation - including us.

So I’m curious - Did you already know I had an Etsy shop, or is this news to you??

I’ll share the shop link in the comments for anyone who wants to look around.

A little Friday behind-the-scenes!!

Working on something new today, and I’m at the stage where tiny details get moved around an unreasonable number of times. And I’m going crazy lol

I’m not showing the whole thing yet…

But I am curious: what’s the first thing you noticed in this photo?

The lake kept my dignity as a souvenir. 🤦🏼‍♀️ lol

What’s your most embarrassing “this seemed like a good idea” story?

I pray that you experience JOY today 💕

Truth.

A few weeks ago, you helped me choose Joe’s shop photo. Now it’s Kass’s turn. lol

Which photo best shows off the “God Is Still Working on Me” shirt?

Bonus points if you tell me why, because your explanations were genuinely helpful last time. 💕

A good friend of mine gave me these teeny tiny plastic frogs that I love sooo much. Well, today, we decided to do a tiny frog photo shoot. Needless to say, the plastic frogs cooperated a bit better than the live ones 😜

Seriously, tho… have you ever seen cuter froggiesss?!?

Today, several people told my daughter how much she looks like me… and several complimented my tiny frog shirt without knowing I designed it. lol

Let’s be honest - Do you think she looks like me?

Friday report from the Quirk + Work Quality Control Department:

Samson showed up, looked deeply concerned about the workload, and immediately chose emotional support over productivity. Can you blame him?

Performance review:
10/10 face
2/10 output
Would absolutely keep!!

What do you think his official job title should be? lol

The people have spoken... and this is the winning photo!!

Thank you to everyone who helped me choose! I loved reading your votes and your very serious analysis of beach poses.

As for the story behind "Savage Yet Saved"?

Honestly, there's not much of a story lol The phrase came up while I was brainstorming, made me laugh, and felt like it belonged at Quirk + Work. 🤷‍♀️

Because grace is real… and so is a little harmless chaos. 💕

Be honest: what part of your personality is still slightly savage?
