Happy Friday! Today's post is a little different than the usual weekly overview. Earlier this week I had the opportunity to travel with my dad back to the city where I grew up. Although I like to claim the South as home, I lived in rural Indiana until the middle of my junior year of… Continue reading High Five For Memories!

How to Organize An Overnight Bag
Don't you hate how quickly an overnight travel bag becomes a black hole of wadded up clothes and dirty socks? I always take an assortment of large tote bags for weekend or overnight travel, and I inevitably end up digging around in a mess of clothes, trying to find one particular thing. The other day… Continue reading How to Organize An Overnight Bag
Ordering Your Priorities In Marriage
The other day while scrolling through the "about" section of my personal Facebook profile, I noticed the cursor turned into the little four-way arrow thing that means "you can move this around." The items I could move included where I work, where I went to college, where I live, where I'm from as well as… Continue reading Ordering Your Priorities In Marriage
Menu Monday – and my breakfast food obsession!
I've been on such a breakfast kick this summer! As you'll see below, we enjoyed both the waffles I made last week as well as a batch of homemade blueberry pancakes for breakfast. The mornings have been unusually cool here in South Carolina, and I guess my longing for fall and winter makes me… Continue reading Menu Monday – and my breakfast food obsession!

Yesterday I shared my tips for enjoying your time in an ugly home by enhancing the spaces you love. If your situation is anything like mine was (renting a furnished apartment decorated by someone with extremely different taste from my own), enhancing a few nice things isn't quite enough. Today I'll share how I disguised the… Continue reading How to Enjoy Living in an Ugly Home – Part Two
How to Enjoy Living in an Ugly Home
How's that for a title? Presently I live in a cozy house that my husband and I bought together, surrounded by furniture and accessories that I carefully chose or inherited from precious family members. I love our home! However. My first apartment was a walkout basement with one bedroom and an open area for the kitchen, dining… Continue reading How to Enjoy Living in an Ugly Home
Decadent Blueberry Waffles and a Not-So-Manly Menu Plan
It's Monday! I thought I'd get your day off to a good start by sharing the waffle recipe from Friday's teaser photo. I started with a very simple recipe, but didn't have as much milk as I thought and ended up tweaking the recipe to work with what I had. The result was a decadent, fluffy waffle that… Continue reading Decadent Blueberry Waffles and a Not-So-Manly Menu Plan
High Five For Friday!
Happy Friday! After four straight days of rain last week, it was nice to have a few days that weren't quite as soggy. Here's the highlights from the rest of the week... 1.
