Hey, hey! How is your week going? I’ve been having a good week (minus a freak-out yesterday and a stuffy nose that suddenly hit me right after my lingering cough went away—are you kidding me?), but I’ve been having the most intense writer’s block. Fairly normal, right? I’m sure you’ve been there. Sometimes when I…

Top 3 Friday #5
Hey guys! I’m coming at you late today, but I really wanted to get back into a little groove before taking some time away over the weekend. This week started off really nice. On our drive home Sunday, Bazooka was AN ANGEL. He napped in his car seat for a couple hours and even when…
Frustrations & Purpose
Hey there – I promise I haven’t jumped ship and that I’m still around. Go figure, after posting my thoughts on how our culture is obsessed with the notion of “busy,” I have no explanation except that—wait for it—I’ve been really freaking busy. Busy at work and busy visiting family (a much-welcomed “busy”). Last weekend…
Blogging and Oversharing?
So, this week has been interesting. Nothing has happened to me personally, but at the risk of some major vague-blogging (sorry!), let’s just say that the worlds of several people I know and encounter daily were rocked. And not in a good way. In fact, I’m still crazy nervous as I type this up. Thinking…
Easy Cheesy Greek Quinoa Bake
You guys, I had high hopes for this recipe we made a few weeks ago. The recipe is from a cookbook for toddlers, so surely my toddler gobbled it up, right? Wrong. He ate a tiny bite of the quinoa alone, but he wasn’t feeling the actual vegetables in it. Story of my life! We are…
Currently // June 2016
Hey guys! I always feel petty diving into a cheerful intro after a tragedy like what happened in Orlando this weekend. My thoughts and prayers go out to the victims’ loved ones. I hope your Monday is treating you well. I’m looking forward to this week because both Mark and I are taking off work…
“Your Holistically Hot Transformation” (Book Review)
Hey guys! I’m switching things up and coming at you on a Saturday because today, June 11, is the kick off for a promotional event I want to tell you about. Recently I was given an electronic copy of Your Holistically Hot Transformation by Marissa Vicario to review, and I have to say her down-to-earth…
Top 3 Friday #4
Woohoo, it’s (almost) the weekend! I feel like I begin these Friday posts a lot more cheerfully than my others—wonder why? 😉 So, this morning I don’t have too much to chat about, so let’s go ahead and jump into Top 3 Friday. Top 3 Eats 1) Crab Cake Eggs Benedict // If you read…
The Glorification of Busy
Now that I’m an adult (I’ve been “adulting” for over a decade now, who am I kidding?), I’ve learned a lot about the value of time and what it means to be busy. I used to roll my eyes at my mother when she talked about time passing so quickly each year. However, now that…
Brunch at Five (Restaurant Review)
Y’all, this past weekend we actually got out of the house and DID STUFF. I mean, we didn’t go crazy, but on Sunday we drove Bazooka Boy over to my parents’ house so that we could have a few hours to ourselves. So what did we choose to do with those precious few hours? Brunch,…
