Capsule Wardrobe :: I Tried

July 28, 2016

In my constant mission to not have stuff piled around that we don't need I tend to frequent Goodwill. Once or twice a year I will take everything I haven't worn in a year straight and send it off for someone else who might want it.  When it came time for my last GW round I thought I'd take it a step further and jump on the Capsule Wardrobe bandwagon.  I watched YouTube videos, read...

Meal Pinning Monday

July 26, 2016

Notice it's Tuesday evening before this post is going live. That should be an indication of how my week has been going. If you're curious, Snap Chat will give you all sorts of insight into my going to places the wrong day, screaming children, and why I'm using milk of magnesia on my face. All sorts of things people. If you're curious I'll do a post about the milk of magnesia. [What is...

Green Bean Salad

July 22, 2016

I came across this Green Bean Salad this summer and having made it a few times I can tell you this, it's amazing.  Anything that's really easy, requires my kitchen to not heat up, and tastes delicious is a keeper in my book.  Last night I made this in about 30 minutes (cutting 2 lbs of green beans really extended the time) during nap time to take to the Celebrate Recovery dinner....

Meal Pinning Monday

July 19, 2016

A day late and a dollar short? Between errand running, a bad storm, and having to write my welcome letter for my class (deadlines people, sad face) I managed to cook but totally miss blogging. [What is Meal Pinning Monday?] MPM is how I meal plan for our little family. I once spent a lot of time searching the web and my recipe books hunting for new recipes and ideas for what...

I finally got to wander Home Goods while my mom was in town. Their random food section is on point people! Like, ON POINT. I feel like I judge stores based on their random food section.  About 4 years ago I was ordering Kombucha by the case off of Amazon while my favorite of all time --- Synergy --- was in the process of lowering the alcohol content from their brand. Kombucha Wonder...

Chocolate Chip Lace Cookies

July 13, 2016

There are a few preferences in this family when it comes to cookies, my mother likes lace cookies, Jeremy likes traditional chewy chocolate chip, and I love oatmeal raisin.  Honestly there are few cookies I'll say no to. I just want them chewy.  The idea of lace cookies is great, but the super crunch just isn't my speed. Jeremy actually thought he wouldn't like these because he...

Meal Pinning Monday

July 11, 2016

It's the last week of summer before Jeremy goes back to work, can we just have a moment of silence for summer ending. All the sad face emojis over here! In other news, wheat and dairy are still out of the diet in an effort to get back to where I was after the Whole30 in January when I was completely off my allergy meds. [What is Meal Pinning Monday?] MPM is how I meal plan for...

Well, the 4th is over and as I promised a friend... I'm Whole30-ing with her this month.  Let the fun begin. See also, detoxing from dairy.  [What is Meal Pinning Monday?] MPM is how I meal plan for our little family. I once spent a lot of time searching the web and my recipe books hunting for new recipes and ideas for what to cook every week. Then, Pinterest came along...

Yes, I'm aware that it's Saturday.  It takes awhile sometimes to get it together around here.  Y'all one is a fun age, like a thousand times better than pooping 12 times a day and being a sack of potatoes stage. Can I just birth the next one to be one? We took dude to the splash pad this week, he loved it and I'll spare you the pic of myself that Jeremy so lovingly posted on...
