I’ve got to be honest, even though I am physically here at home getting ready for our wedding, mentally, I am already in Mexico. If you go inside my mind right now, these images are what you will see. I’ll have the pictures do all the talking. We are so close that I can almost taste and feel […]

What a great weekend I had. Thank you for the sweet birthday wishes to Chris. He said Thank You to you all. I got to bond with this little one (Jonah, my newborn nephew, 3 days old). His face has a lot of expressions and he has a strong grip too. I let him hold […]

Big Little Lies by Liane Moriarty “Big Little Lies is a brilliant take on ex-husbands and second wives, mothers and daughters, schoolyard scandal, and the dangerous little lies we tell ourselves just to survive” “A murder. A tragic accident…. Someone is dead. But who did what?” I wanted to read this book for awhile […]
My one little word last year really helped me be more intentional throughout the year. It was my first year and it was very helpful at times when I was at a crossroad in making decisions, when I was struggling to move forward and when I needed directions. This year, my one little word is […]
Tessemae’s Salad Dressings – I found this dressing in January and I think I am on my 7th bottle already. My favorite is the Southwest Ranch flavor and I’m on my 3rd bottle now. The ingredients are very simple and all real food. It packs a lot of flavor and a little goes […]
I feel like I’m getting my baking mojo back. I didn’t bake much during the holidays, which usually is the busiest time in my kitchen, so maybe I’m making up for it now? It’s also because I’ve organized my pantry and now all my baking supplies are in one place and gathering all the ingredients […]
