I don’t know about you, but I am constantly bemoaning the enormity of my t-shirt collection. I have nice t-shirts which go on hangers. I have t-shirts meant for the gym. I have t-shirts in which I sleep. Obviously, what… Continue Reading
First, let me kick off by saying that I am not on the Paleo diet. I do, however, try my very best to eat towards the higher-protein/lower-carb side of the spectrum. That being said, I always keep higher-protein snacks on deck for… Continue Reading
I travel (by plane) more than some, but not as much as others. I can’t count the number of times that the changes in altitude or general jostling of baggage handlers have made beauty products (shampoo, body gel, etc.) explode in my… Continue Reading
I’m not the biggest breakfast person… I’d rather spend the 15 minutes it takes to make/eat breakfast snoozing. No shame. This rule holds pretty fast… except on the weekends. I adore nothing more than a leisurely brunch while watching CBS Sunday… Continue Reading
If you are on Pinterest, then you’ve probably seen the pin about using shower/binder rings on a hanger to organize your scarves. As a big scarf wearer, I am always on the lookout for better ways to organize the collection. As I already had a hanger and binder… Continue Reading
Baked. Brie. Bites. Baked… Brie… Bites. I love all of these words individually, but really like when they all come together in one thing. For just about any recipe, I like to have the end results greatly outweigh the amount… Continue Reading
One of my favorite cookbooks around (besides Coralie’s Mom’s Awesome Cookbook: Mary Made It, of course) is “Something To Talk About: Simply Coastal Cooking” from The Darien Telephone Company in Darien, Georgia. The only thing better than the food in Darien is… Continue Reading
I have super long hair right now. Super long hair. Longer than it’s ever been. I’ve been growing it out for a few years now to donate through Locks of Love to a friend’s grandchild who has alopecia. I had blogged… Continue Reading
Although I know the above quote to be true, it is something I struggle with often. I have to consciously tell myself that my life story is exactly that- MY life story. It isn’t my friend’s life, my parent’s life, or… Continue Reading
I’ve seen the tip on Pinterest several times now about spraying wet, polished nails with Pam cooking spray. Along with this, I’ve also seen the tip about placing your nails in cold water to aid in the drying process. I… Continue Reading
*Assuming you like Feta cheese. I found a pin on Pinterest that was titled, “Feta Dip” with “Everyone begs for the recipe” in the descriptor section. Everyone has different tastes, and Feta (like cilantro) is polarizing. I, personally, really like… Continue Reading
If you spend enough time on Pinterest, then I know you’ve seen the pin about cleaning out an old candle and re-purposing it. I’m not crazy. If the candle came in a janky jar, I’ll toss it into the recycling. But every once and a… Continue Reading
I’ve seen the pin floating around Pinterest about “cleaning your make up brushes” a few times now. I just got back from a trip and I had a makeup bag full of brushes that needed cleaning. Because everything should be cleaned after going through… Continue Reading
*Okay… maybe not forever… but certainly longer than a week or two. I love fresh herbs in cooking. They are versatile, flavorful, and add so much for so few calories. The only thing WRONG with fresh herbs is how much I hate… Continue Reading
This past Christmas, I received a Kindle Fire tablet/e-book reader. Which means any excuse I had to NOT read ‘the Classics’ has been obliterated. They are there. For free. And surely they are classics for a reason, right? Totally worth my time? I decided to go… Continue Reading
