If you wouldn’t mind, for me, take a moment (right now) to remember the last time you bought a mattress. Think back to the poorly-lit showroom; where you flopped your way across a lumpy, rectangular sea trying to gauge and project your ability to spend the next… Continue Reading
This playlist was compiled from songs that found their way into our summer; a fun reminder of a sunnier time as we get ready to Fall Back. A fun note: in their unending search for the perfect music hosting platform, Coralie… Continue Reading
The mercury is slated to hit 95 degrees this week in Atlanta. Even though summer doesn’t officially start until the 21st, it certainly feels like it is in full swing. Which is why todays recommendation is particularly pertinent. Is there… Continue Reading
I know many a cat lover. Cats are great, but my allergies preclude me from being a “cat person”. That doesn’t, however stop me from enjoying adorable cat videos on the internet. Which is a good thing, since 90% of… Continue Reading
Although Summer is technically still 20 days away, June in Georgia might as well be Summer. As Coralie mentioned last Friday, the fruits and veggies are already out in full force. Which is why, when I saw a helpful info-graphic… Continue Reading
I recently read an article on Mental Floss (and you guys know how much I love Mental Floss) that I wanted to share with you guys. The article concerns the science behind caffeine. I guess I never really sat… Continue Reading
Today, I wanted to share one of my favorite t-shirt mods! It (sadly) isn’t one that I came up with, but it is the one that (when I wear it) I get asked about the most. It is one of… Continue Reading
I am a snacker. I said it. It’s something I’m working on, but left to my own devices, I’ll snack #alldaylong. I try to either limit my snacks or surround myself with better snacking options. Although I love fresh fruit,… Continue Reading
Remember when I did Birchbox product reviews? Yeah. Although a good subject idea, our modified posting schedule and life’s craziness got in the way of that venture. Plus, there are many out there who do it better than I, so I… Continue Reading
I was born with a severe case of wanderlust. As such, to sate that proclivity and prepare for future adventures, I enjoy watching travel shows. In many a segment, Western tourists are often dismayed or off put by the “primitive”… Continue Reading
With as avid a reader as I am (and I know Coralie is too), I am surprised that book reviews don’t get a lot of play on the website. Which is why, going back and polishing/editing my book review posts… Continue Reading
For me, not having the right tool for the job can be one of the most frustrating things. I am all about working smarter, not harder. If I must do chores, then I want them done as quickly and efficiently… Continue Reading
Remember? On Monday? When we said we’d have a big announcement on Wednesday? But, now it’s Thursday? We’re throwing back this Thursday to introduce a feature we talked about way back on Monday! Just go with it. Blog-revamps, much like time and… Continue Reading
Pop the champagne. Put up the streamers. No, no… put away the glitter– don’t you know that that stuff gets everywhere?! This week marks Fun Things To Do While You’re Waiting’s two-year anniversary. Can you believe it? Two years. Frankly, it’s hard to believe that… Continue Reading
Every four minutes, someone is diagnosed with blood cancer. Every. Four. Minutes. As many of you know, my brother (Russell) was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia this past September. He has valiantly completed the eight, five-day, hospitalized chemotherapy treatments that were the prescribed course for his treatment. Due to… Continue Reading
I’ve mentioned before my complex relationship with my hair. It has only been within the last several years that I have really developed an understanding and positive relationship with it. I attribute my hair-acceptance to three things: the internet, flat-iron… Continue Reading
During a recent spate of particularly uninspired dish washing, I stacked a glass into a mug to make more room on the counter. When I finally got around to doing the dishes, I found that no matter how I tried,… Continue Reading
I’ve made no secret of my love for Casabella Waterstop Premium Gloves on this blog– in fact, I have proclaimed quite loudly my undying brand loyalty. Which is why, when rumblings of a Casabella Waterstop Premium Gloves shortage started, I freaked… Continue Reading
Many a Fun Foto Friday ago, I jokingly posted something close to the following: Because I am a top-notch blogalist, I provided zero scientific fact regarding why some ketchups are “fancy” and went right for the joke. Classic… Continue Reading
You didn’t think I would stop doing Fun Foto Fridays even though I’m now a Monday poster, did you? Surely, not. And don’t call me, Shirley. Sorry for the lateness of this post, but I fly back out to Georgia tomorrow… Continue Reading
