Can you believe I found that chair on the side of the road? Well it didn’t look like that originally… I get this from my mom. I cannot tell you how many times we’ve been driving down the road and she would yell to my dad: “We have to turn around!” 80% of the time upon closer look

Well this is it. The beginning of the end…
I have caved into society demands to be ‘hip’ ‘cool’ and start blogging. Yep, I am a sell out.
No, I just like to tell stories, even if it is at the expense of my embarrassment. Before we get into that though, a bit about me. I was born and raised on the farm, loved every minute of it…and no I do not have horses on my farm. But I was also born and raised on music. Lived it, breathed it, and picked up a guitar and started singing at a young age. I later on discovered that I could get paid for listening to the radio, which was already something I did quite regularly, it was really a win win situation. So I got into broadcasting.
Now basically this blog will be filled with the daily findings of Janel Steeper. It may just be an embarrassing story (that maybe down the road I will regret sharing) but really what good is the story if you don’t tell it? Or a funny or odd news story, like today:
Baby Gaga… No shes not pregnant. Its worse, much worse… Breast milk Ice cream. Sold in Britain, served in a martini glass for 14 pounds per serving, or about $22 for us Canucks.

I need a fanny pack
Spending $10 on a fanny pack could have saved me almost $1000. I just got back from Boots and Hearts. It’s a HUGE country music festival in the middle of an open field near Barrie, ON. Now I had heard stories of how wild things get;however, that didn’t stop me from showing up alone. I believe this was my first mistake.

toDIYfor – Bachelorette Glasses
These were made with the intention of being used at my sister-in-laws bachelorette… Yeah, that didn’t happen. Turns out most of the drinks were had while out at the bars… BONUS–a group of girls walking around with one in a white dress, sash, veil, ‘bride’ buttons, and beads will have an abundance of drinks bought for them. The girls LOVED these glasses, which were pretty easy to make. We ended up using them the day of the wedding at the head table! Watch the full tutorial here.

toDIYfor – Hammock Swing
This DIY could not have gone more wrong. There is a reason several beers were consumed while attempting to make it. Let’s just say, fishing line works as a good substitute for thread and my sister no longer has an emergency blanket in her van. Regardless, the end product was pretty sweet! Check out the full tutorial here.
