Air Fryer Friday {Buffalo Pierogies}

September 1, 2017April 15, 2019

I promise I am not going to spam y’all with air fryer Friday every week.  I just have a few recipes to share and I can’t resist the alliteration. So, buffalo pierogies sound peculiar, right?  Well, Sister introduced them to me years ago and they have been a standby snack (or light dinner) since then.… Read More

Tools for Managing Time and Schedules

August 31, 2017September 1, 2017

I had intended to share my tips for managing time in yesterday’s Day in the Life post but… wait for it… I ran out of time.  HA!  So now that we all know that am far from an expert on this, let’s go.   :-)  I rely a lot on technology and a little on… Read More

My friends over at 11 Magnolia Lane host a back to school organizational series each year with a great group of bloggers.  This year’s theme  is “A Day in the Life” and, with a bit of anxiety, I’m going to give you a peek behind the curtain of what a day around here is looking… Read More

Zinus Mattress + Other Bedding Necessities

August 29, 2017March 5, 2020

After an exhaustive search both online and in stores, we finally chose a mattress for John’s new room.  (If you missed the news, the sweet twin beds are gone and we are doing a “tween” update.)  We finally settled on the Zinus 12 Inch Gel-Infused Green Tea Memory Foam Mattress from Amazon.  It was $299 for… Read More

Magical Monday {Flying Fish at Disney’s BoardWalk}

August 28, 2017November 7, 2022

UPDATED REVIEW HERE On our trip in May, we were staying at Disney’s Beach Club Resort, so we scheduled a date night dinner at Flying Fish just around the corner.  It was a lovely walk from our room and, after kicking things off at AbracadaBar, we were ready for dinner. The restaurant has recently been… Read More

Thinking of Texas

August 26, 2017August 29, 2017

In the wake of Hurricane Harvey, I just wanted to pop in and say that my thoughts and prayers are with the state of Texas tonight.  I hope that you and yours are safe and stay safe as the flood waters rise over the next few days. Image: heavens2betsydesign.com – all of her stuff is… Read More

Wildcat HOCO 2026! 💙💛 Whit decided about 30 minut Wildcat HOCO 2026! 💙💛

Whit decided about 30 minutes before everyone was meeting for pictures that he was going after all! A quick scramble through three boys’ closets produced a suit, and off he went. No haircut, no tie, no problem! Haha!

These lasts are coming fast, and I’m trying to soak up every one!

I was and avid reader and dreamer as a little girl I was and avid reader and dreamer as a little girl, and opening this felt like discovering a treasure chest. Honestly, it radiated just as much happiness and joy at 50. ❤️

My friend Katie recently launched @itsyourstorygifts, creating reading gift sets centered around a surprise chapter book and absolutely stuffed with bookish goodies. She sent me one of her Signature Book Boxes to experience for myself, and as you can see… it just kept going.

Everything was prepared with so much care and thought. I immediately pictured the child who would absolutely light up opening one of these, whether it arrived for a birthday, to celebrate something special, during a hard season or simply to say, “I’m thinking of you.”

I’m sharing much more about Katie, her new business and what’s inside the box on the blog today.

And stay tuned. We have something fun coming later this week!

Mahjong, but make it cards. @playhootenanny gifte Mahjong, but make it cards.

@playhootenanny gifted me their Mahjong Playing Cards, and Honey and I took them along on our recent weekend away. They’re beautiful, easy to pack and such a fun way to play when traveling with an entire mahjong setup isn’t exactly practical.

We picked it up surprisingly quickly, and these have officially earned a spot in my travel bag.

I shared more on the blog today, including a link to the set on Amazon!
