1// Food holidays are so great right now. Because what is more fun than celebrating a food holiday AND posting the proof to Instagram? Last Friday night (National Donut Day) Paul and I had our weekly Chick Fil A date, after which we stopped for free donuts at Ingles. Chicken and donuts in the same day?… Continue reading High Five For Friday {and food holidays}!

Kitchen Tour!
I'm participating in the Food Bloggers Vlog Every Day In June challenge from Christy Jordan of Southern Plate. Earlier this week I posted a tour of my kitchen as part of the challenge. I know I love seeing other people's kitchens, so I thought I'd share it here as well for those of you who don't… Continue reading Kitchen Tour!
Get That Song Out Of My Head
If you've worked in retail for any length of time, you've probably gotten sick of hearing the same music day after day. Or is that just me and my incredibly easily annoyed ears? Ha. Anyway, I've heard the same playlist of 70's and 80's hits every day since the day after Christmas. I didn't know these… Continue reading Get That Song Out Of My Head
Menu Monday: Eating From the Pantry!
I created this week's menu using almost entirely items from previous weeks of grocery shopping! I made a small grocery trip on Friday night where I got a few things that were great deals, but only a few items from that trip were used for this week's menu. I had plenty of meat and veggies… Continue reading Menu Monday: Eating From the Pantry!
High Five For Friday
1// I find no shame in digging through clearance racks in the kids clothing section...for myself. Especially when I can find a darling top like this one for six bucks! 2// This weekend will include some sister time! We're hoping to work on some fun things for the blog while she's here...hopefully we can keep… Continue reading High Five For Friday
5 Minute Weeknight Sides
My favorite part of most meals is the sides. I love roasted veggies and mashed potatoes, but I don't always have time for those kinds of dishes on weeknights. Here are two quick weeknight sides that we've been enjoying recently. I love the way Applebees makes their steamed broccoli - here's my take on their method!… Continue reading 5 Minute Weeknight Sides

Ingles Grocery Haul + New Recipes! {Menu Monday}
Happy Monday! This is our fourth week of my husband's efforts to stick with his Paleo diet/Crossfit routine. It's harder than he thought it would be, but we're surviving! I looked for a few new recipes to add to the menu this week - hopefully they'll satisfy my picky eater! If you are interested in… Continue reading Ingles Grocery Haul + New Recipes! {Menu Monday}
High Five For Friday {and British accents}!
1// My sister and brother in law came down for the afternoon on Memorial Day! Paul and Andrew played some frisbee golf and then we hit their favorite local ice cream place for a sweet treat. Paul took the picture for us...at least he got the girls and the cones in the shot! 🙂 2// I… Continue reading High Five For Friday {and British accents}!
Big Sister Survival Kit
I love my sister dearly, but I remember the somewhat rough transition from being the only child to being the big sister 23 years ago. Don't worry, I'm over it now. Ha! As a member of our family prepared to welcome a new baby this summer, my mind went back to that rocky transition from receiving… Continue reading Big Sister Survival Kit
