Hot Tomato Grits

July 9, 2017July 8, 2017

I shared this pic on Instagram one morning while in Savannah and got a slew of messages asking for the recipe!  This is a bowl Mother’s absolutely delicious hot tomato grits.  We eat it mostly for breakfast at home, but sometimes as a side dish at suppertime.  She’s been making it for as long as… Read More

Sunday Supper {Caprese Salad}

June 25, 2017June 22, 2017

Our go-to salad this supper couldn’t be easier to put together!  I am sure I’m not telling y’all anything you don’t know, but I figure it was worth mentioning since it has never occurred to me to make a caprese salad at home. It all started when I ordered one at Disney and the boys… Read More

Chocolate Banana Bread with Greek Yogurt

June 4, 2017

When I was unexpectedly left with three ultra ripe bananas and no trip in site to the grocery store, I had to get a little creative with my banana bread recipe.  And boy am I ever glad I did!!  This one was so moist and yummy and is my new favorite.  Not to mention, I… Read More

Sunday Supper {Lemon Fusilli with Arugula}

May 7, 2017May 7, 2017

This pasta dish has soared to the top of our favorite Sunday Suppers!  While it’s pretty heavy on the heavy cream, it is chocked full of veggies.  So one offsets the other, right?!  Honey grilled chicken breasts the night before and we sliced those up and served them on the side.  In addition to just… Read More

Walking Tacos for Cinco de Mayo

May 5, 2017May 6, 2017

It was cold, rainy and windy so we were as happy as clams celebrating cindo de mayo at home!  Things kicked off with margaritas for the adults.  I found the Fat & Juicy mix at Fresh Market.  I don’t recommend.  HA!  Somehow we managed though :-)  I picked up the mini pinatas last year to… Read More

Sunday Supper {White Wine Chicken + Twice Baked Potato Casserole}

April Fools Ideas + Printables

March 29, 2017March 28, 2017

We haven’t been in a place where I could put together a fantastically funny April Fools celebration for the littles and I hate that!  Regardless, some of our favorite family dinners have revolved around this oft forgotten holiday so I wanted to share a few ideas to help YOU celebrate at home this year. Silly… Read More

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!

This trip was never really about New York. It was This trip was never really about New York.

It was about watching two incredible kids chase big dreams, cheering them on from the front row, and soaking up every minute together.

The city was amazing… but these memories mean even more. 🤍🗽

To JB and Cee: we couldn’t be more proud. Enjoy summer in the city!
