    It’s the end of August and school has begun again. (WHERE has the summer gone?) I’ve seen a lot memes on the interwebs about looking forward to hoodies, football, leaves, pumpkin spice everything, and cooler weather. Well as you can see, cooler weather is nowhere in sight in my world. Yes, that’s Fahrenheit – at…

    Some days it seems like the angels sing, the stars align, and everything falls into place in order to make things happen. When that happens, life is easy as pie – or in this case, tarts. My HH and I were thinking about how nice it would be to have just a little something sweet but didn’t…

    The other day was National Hamburger Day. Who comes up with these “holidays”? Well, thank you to whomever, because even though I’m not a huge carnivore, I LOVE a good burger. Burgers are like pizza in that there are so many different ways to approach them: big and juicy, stuffed with fillings, thin with a…

    Sometimes less is more, and there is a lot of minimalist going on lately. (Wait. Is that an oxymoron?) Tiny houses are all the rage right now. Have you seen them? They look like glorified tree houses, or doll houses on steroids. They’re so cute, but I can’t live in a house that’s smaller than…

    Does anyone else seem like you make and eat the same meals? The dinner rut is a tough one to deal with because we all have our favorites, comfort foods, and quick-on-the-table meals that are the family approved stand bys. Don’t get me wrong – pizza night is not to be trifled with, but you…

    I’m a Daddy’s Girl. Always have been, always will be. Don’t get me wrong, I love my mom very dearly, and as I get older, I see the best parts of her in me. I know I’m blessed beyond words to have the parents that I do. But daddy was the first man in my life,…

    Today is (yesterday was) chocolate caramel day! So obviously my perfect intentions for staying ahead of the game this year didn’t work out as perfectly as I’d hoped. Does anyone else have this problem? That’s okay – chocolate makes everything better, so let’s focus on that. Combine chocolate with caramel and you take “better” to…

    This is the year that I get completely organized, stay ahead of the game, and don’t let circumstances control the direction of my life. *Cue Laugh Track* Each January, like so many others, I make goals and resolutions to get my life organized. Then life sits back and just laughs and laughs. Well this year I’m doing a…

    Sometimes Pinspiration strikes at the most random times; for example, while walking through the grocery store at 5:15 pm while you have no idea what you’re going to make for supper. There were these beautiful thick boneless pork chops on sale. When I say thick, I mean about 2 inches thick – perfect for splitting…

    Some of you know that I’ve been working very hard to change to a healthier lifestyle and lose weight, although the weight loss is secondary to getting healthy and fit. The problem is that I also love to cook and bake, and I don’t always want to choose the celery and peanut-butter rather than a rich dessert.…
