Back to School Energy Bites

August 4, 2017

General Mills is one of my favorite companies to work with, and getting their packages in the mail periodically is a really fun perk of blogging.  :-)  They usually send a couple of boxes of cereal, unique recipes and something personalized. Whit and I looked through the recipes and were excited to make these energy… Read More

Let’s Talk Laundry

August 2, 2017August 2, 2017

I know, I know… the most exciting subject in recent memory… laundry!!  But, in all reality, I love a solid recommendation from a friend with no skin in the game.  At the beginning of this year a friend from school was raving to a few moms about her Persil laundry detergent.  I guess I tucked… Read More

Back to School Door Hangers

August 1, 2017August 2, 2017

Happy August!  It’s back to school time here in Georgia and I’ve already got cheery door hangers out on the front and side entries.  Both are by Bronwyn Hanahan Art on etsy. Honey spent the last couple of weekends painting all of the wood work on the front porch, upper railing and side porch.  It… Read More

Magical Monday {Highway in the Sky Dine Around}

July 31, 2017January 15, 2021

While nothing quite beats seeing the awe and wonder of Disney magic on our kids’ faces, there is also something incredibly special about making time for a date night while in Disney.  We always look for new experiences or offerings to try and were absolutely thrilled when the Highway in the Sky Dine Around was… Read More

Sunday Supper {Gumbo Love by Lucy Buffett}

July 30, 2017

When I was offered a copy of Gumbo Love by Lucy Buffet, I jumped.  I mean, I love cooking, reading, Sunday suppers, the South, her brother’s music, and so on and so forth.  I have a few Southern cookbooks on my shelf, but none are dedicated to the flavors and traditions of the Gulf Coast.… 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!
