Who doesn’t love getting new beauty products? But let’s be real, trying out new products can also get a bit out of control. Walking through Sephora often feels like a beauty landmine, especially by the time I make it to the checkout line where I am tempted with all of the cute little minis and […]

4 Months
So I am roughly 4 months into my fantastical mini life goal list (you know, my 101 in 1001), and things are actually going really really well. When I have come back to review my list lately, I have actually been surprised at how quickly things are going. I couldn’t have imagined checking so many […]
Be Mine
With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, I wanted to make sure that ya’ll are all set up with the perfect plan for a romantic night in with your sweetie. A night in? On Valentine’s Day?

the Crack Shack
Today marks the start of a new series on the blog, and it’s pretty self-explanatory, “Dining Out.” As you have totally figured out by now, the hubby and I are both big foodies, and so we are always excited to try a new restaurant. But possibly different than other online resources for food, we are […]
Healthy Turkey Chili
There is something about the arrival of the New Year that inspires a lot of people to eat healthier and set fitness or health goals for the rest of the year. And although I haven’t set any goals for myself for 2017 (can you hardly believe that I don’t have a list going?!?), perhaps I […]

For New Year’s Eve, after a whirlwind 3 weeks out of town, the hubs and I decided to stay in and cook one of our favorites, Shrimp Risotto. Creamy, sweet, savory, garlicky…this recipe hits all of the right notes and will keep you coming back for more (pretty much until you finish the pot). For […]
Welcoming the New Year
Ringing in the New Year, welcoming 2017, starting fresh, however you put it, we had a great time. In fact, to be honest, I think that the hubs and I enjoyed one of our most favorite (relaxing) New Year’s Eve and Days ever. We were initially just excited by the idea of being home (which […]
Happy New Year
Don’t you just love this time of year? Out with the old, in with the new…reminiscing on the past year and looking forward to the New Year…new goals, new dreams, new hopes, new desires? I love everything that the New Year represents – it gives me new energy and gives me the sensation of a […]
2016 Highlights
It’s hard to believe that in a few short days, 2016 is coming to an end. I think that I say this every year, but I really really mean it this year – this past year has flown by! But at the same time, we’ve been blessed with a lot of family time, a lot […]
