My name is Hollie Black-Ramsey, I live in Texarkana, TX, I'm a wife to an intellectual redneck and a stay at home mom of two. I just recently "retired" from owning and directing the Texarkana Renaissance Faire (an annual renaissance faire I created for my town). I gave the faire to a good friend of mine and "demoted" myself to assistant director so I can focus on my family, my health and my blog.

I am a rather unconventional mom and wife. I don’t follow trends and I flee from fads. I am rebellious by nature and wildly hedonistic. Because of my quirky materialistic desires and one-income home-life, I have darn near mastered the art of frugality… almost to the point cheapskate-ism. Can you imagine? A hedonistic cheapskate? Well, that’s me I guess. I am willing to do almost anything to save a buck and I can stretch a dollar ‘til it hollers.

Our eclectic home is decorated with strange art, vintage oddities, exotic textiles and knick-knacks that were all collected from thrift stores, garage sales and even found in abandoned homes and on the curb. My children listen to music from all around the world, I teach them how to belly dance and they have no clue who Dora the Explorer is. We don’t keep up with mainstream media, we haven’t been to the cinema in five years and I can’t remember the last time I’ve been inside a Starbucks.

We’re not trying to be hip and we're not trying to impress anyone with our mutinous ways. We’re far too old for those kind of games. We are who we are and what we are is… well, kind of weird. 
We are and incredibly offbeat family and I love it!
