Last fall I challenged myself to say something nice if I saw something nice. I'm not an outgoing person, so following through on my challenge has stretched me. In my day job I constantly interact with women and have really sought to say something genuine, positive and encouraging. It has been a rewarding challenge! Not… Continue reading The Benefit of Kindness

Braving Aldi {Menu Monday}
When I was growing up, grocery shopping was usually a family event. We all got in the van and rode to County Market or Walmart for a fun time of walking the aisles and filling the grocery cart. I always enjoyed grocery shopping with my family - unless we ended up at Aldi. Horrors. Everyone… Continue reading Braving Aldi {Menu Monday}
High Five For Friday, Friends and Corn on the Cob!
1// I love meeting people in real life that I met through blogging! Monday afternoon I got to have lunch with my sweet friend Lauryn! We originally connected on YouTube last year after she became a SAHW and have been instagram buddies since then. We hit it off right away and had NO trouble coming up… Continue reading High Five For Friday, Friends and Corn on the Cob!
Organizing Under the Kitchen Sink
I have an organizing video for you today! Here's a look at the things I keep under my kitchen sink and how I organized them. I only used things I had on hand, including some fun chevron labels from Target! http://youtu.be/yOiL_JFt5rQ
Controlling The Email Monster
Email. We love to hate it, don't we? Anytime I see someone's email icon on their phone with more than 10 unopened emails, it gives me a little bit of a panic attack. I can't imagine having 10 - or heaven forbid - hundreds of unopened emails! I prefer to stay on top of the… Continue reading Controlling The Email Monster
Family Favorites {Menu Monday}
Happy Monday! The last few times I've shared a picture of my Sunday dinner plate (like this one) I've gotten questions about how I make gravy. It's a little hard to write a recipe for gravy, so the next time I make gravy I will film it and share my process on the blog. Until then,… Continue reading Family Favorites {Menu Monday}
High Five For Friday, Sisters and Sunday Supper!
1// Alli and I talked on the phone Saturday night about how tired we were of our summer clothes, and both made an effort to put together something different from our usual Sunday attire. Sunday morning she texted me a picture of her outfit. I laughed and sent her a picture of mine. Even if you live in another state,… Continue reading High Five For Friday, Sisters and Sunday Supper!
The Best of August
Happy Wednesday! I dug through the archives and found a few posts from this time last year I wanted to share again. It looks like last August I was into laundry baskets and bright colors!
Two Secrets Of A Happy Marriage
When two people who have been happily married for 60 years offer marriage advice, it's a good idea to take notes. That's what I did when visiting my sweet grandparents last month. They don't offer marriage or life advice in an instructional tone - it just comes out in their normal conversation. My life has been… Continue reading Two Secrets Of A Happy Marriage
Fun Times For The Grocery Nerd {Menu Monday}
I'm such a grocery nerd. I love everything about grocery shopping...especially saving money on groceries. If I've only talked to you once, we probably talked about grocery shopping (or cats) in the first few minutes of our conversation. It just happens. I'm not alone - it's not unusual to have a phone conversation with my sister… Continue reading Fun Times For The Grocery Nerd {Menu Monday}
