[via] OK so you guys need to know this: I had to go back and re-do this list about 8 times last night because my dang server kept crashing and I kept forgetting to save my changes. Womp, womp, I know. That, plus the fact that I'm fighting another yucky sinus situation may make today rather interesting! What are you guys doing this weekend? I'm going to my local IF:Gathering and seriously cannot wait. I've been looking forward to this for a whole year, and I know this ... continue reading...
Double Chocolate Chunk Ice Cream
Another chocolate post! But seriously, I don't think I can get enough of this stuff. Not to get all Giada on y'all but I just can't imagine life without chocolate in some form or fashion! I've really been working hard to "be good" (ugh, I hate that phrase) when it comes to my food intake this year, but if there's one thing I'm willing to make a sacrifice for it's chocolate ice cream that's packed with chunks of sweet, creamy chocolate. I mean really, you can't go wrong ... continue reading...
Cocoa Belle
OH MY GOSH you guys. I have to share this article that I did for Only in Ark about one of the sweetest (pun intended) girls in the world who makes incredible chocolate! We're edging up to Valentine's Day and if you're looking for an amazing, fun, unique gift? You really can't go wrong with a box of Cocoa Belle Chocolates! ... continue reading...
10 Months Old!
If you're a parent (or know one at all) I'm sure you've heard the line, "The days are long but the years are short." It's one of those idioms that new parents get to hear when the baby hasn't slept for 4 days, cries all the time, throws a tantrum, or has a tooth poke through. The days are long. Sometimes. But then those years? And sometimes even months? Are so so short. I've been doing a lot of reminiscing lately, a lot of poring through my old photos on my ... continue reading...

Question: does anyone else have a hard time focusing on stuff when you sit down to specifically focus on something? Because holy moly, I had a couple of uninterrupted hours yesterday to work on some stuff and do some big dreaming things, and then I just couldn't get in the mindset to do the work. Maybe it's the lack of sleep, maybe it was the people-watching, but I just couldn't do the dang thing. Just me? So let's talk the weather (yawn, I know) that I can't help but ... continue reading...
Healthy Mediterranean Eggplant Dip
The other day I was skimming through Facebook and found an article that someone linked to that basically was trying to prove that baby carrots are the devil and that anyone who eats them is likely a minion and not to be trusted. As an avid baby-carrot buyer I was, of course, shocked and appalled to find out that I myself must be a minion of the anti-Christ. While many of the points were valid (baby carrots are regular carrots whittled down, they may not be as sweet as regular carrots, you don't ... continue reading...
It’s OK to Be Uncomfortable
I wasn't planning on posting anything today, but last night I read an article that simultaneously broke and uplifted my heart, and I had to share a few thoughts. In case you haven't had it pop up in your Facebook feed yet, the article was How one mom's extraordinary love transforms the short lives of hospice babies. Can I be honest with you guys and say that I never, in a million years, ever thought about the fact that hospice babies existed outside of a loving home? It never once ... continue reading...
Creating an Art Microadventure with FLYJOY
This post was sponsored by FLYJOY, but all opinions are my own. It's been almost exactly 2 full years since we moved into our current home, and we still have yet to do a ton of decorating and hanging of things on our walls. The main reason for this is that I am notorious for hanging stuff on walls before I ever unpack anything else, and then promptly changing my mind once we finalize furniture placement. In fact, before we ever signed the paperwork on this house Nate made me promise that I ... continue reading...

GUYS! I feel like I say this every Friday, but MAN ALIVE what a week. It started off innocently and normal enough (whatever that means) but then Tuesday W and I came down with a nasty little stomach bug that rendered us totally useless. Nate took such good care of us, and we were feeling mostly better on Wednesday but still not great. Luckily we all actually took decent naps that day, and felt totally fine yesterday. But then? Then we had to play catch-up AND plan for the first ... continue reading...
Three Organic Salad Dressing Recipes
My inbox is filled with emails most days – business communication, invitations, marketing pitches, personal correspondence. These days, however, my inbox has filled up with another kind of message: the annual “how to pick a New Year’s Resolution and Stick With It” email from every person who has ever seen my email address. In our family this year, we are working on making smarter choices in our eating habits on a daily basis. It’s not about dieting or losing weight, but just making small ... continue reading...

W - W - W- W - W - WEEKEND!!! Who has two thumbs and is amped for a few days off? THIS GIRL! I'm hoping for a good night's sleep, endless coffee (but for enjoyment, not necessity), a girls' night, a date night, a day of rest - there's a lot going on, and I can't wait. P.S. can you even believe that January is half over? You guys, my baby is inching closer and closer to being a year old and I can't handle it. CANNOT. Y'all enjoy these links, enjoy your ... continue reading...
The Best Kale Salad Ever
Well friends, we made it! Just a couple steps to making the toppings for this salad, and today we're going to assemble. THE. BEST. KALE. SALAD. EVER. Let's recap a bit, shall we? I don't love kale but was compelled to try the kale salad from a local restaurant. It was fabulous. I tweaked a few things to better suite my tastes, then made it a million times between Christmas and now. And today I'm sharing the final ... continue reading...
