Let’s talk about my major vacation fail. I had so many plans to get on the blogging train while I was on my week and a half “vacation.” But then Christmas came, and then Christmas clean-up came. And now New Year’s is almost here. And, well, it just didn’t happen. So here I am with…
// What I Wore posts exist solely to inspire you to look into your closet and mix it up a bit. When I feel good about the way I look, I’m happier and more productive, and I want you to feel the same! You don’t have to shop frequently, just play around with what you have and learn…
As a parent, you know there are always people to give cards/gifts to during the holidays that really should come from your kids… teachers, bus drivers, neighborhood friends, babysitters, etc. A “Merry Christmas” directly from the kids seems so much more appropriate than one from their lame mom. So I was on the hunt for…
Christmas always brings its gift-buying challenges. Like what to buy for the lady who sits in the cubicle next to you that you chat with about your respective dogs, but you can’t remember her husband’s name (although, you do know her dog’s name). Or maybe you’ve got a list of several people that you need…

Just try and look at these pictures of turkeys without drooling. Just try. I’m a late bloomer, so I am just figuring out how I’m going to cook my turkey tomorrow morning. I never make it the same way, because I have some sort of sickness. I guess I just haven’t found a recipe that…
My hair is in an awkward stage. The angled a-line bob is now growing into what I believe is called (attractively) a “lob”… but it needs some serious shaping. I’ve been hanging out in this limbo land for a while because I’ve been trying to decide whether to cut it again or let it grow…
What a crazy week. I’ve been fairly quiet on social media this week ever since the election (unless you are friends with my personal Facebook profile, in which I shared plenty of opinions); just taking it all in and trying to recoup. The week started with my husband leaving for a work trip, so I…
Sigh. Man, these last few weeks have been BUSY. My husband is finishing up a big project at work that he will deliver in early January, so he is working a lot of long days and late nights. And I got a 4000 piece wholesale order that has kept me in front of my binding…
