This week I feel like a crazy person, and for no real reason other than just a few client posts being due back-to-back and an(other) impending cold on the books. Oh, and a baby that refuses to sleep. No biggie, right? This time change thing is kicking my tail too, which feels weird to say but it's true. Anyone else? It's not like I haven't been through it a million times before, but this year just feels different. After having A in March and just getting used to having ... continue reading...
Caramel Apple Pecan Ice Cream
Two things in the food world change for me when fall arrives. First, pumpkin spice lattes dominate my mid-afternoon treats for the next three months. Second, apples are in just about everything I make. Even then I can hardly get enough of them. Apples go with just about anything. The sweet crunch of perfect, raw specimens is such a great texture that works well in salads, on sandwiches or just by themselves. When cooked, they add a soft texture and extra sweetness to just about anything. They ... continue reading...

Quick, Healthy Snacks for Busy Moms
If anyone ever asks how I'm doing these days my answer is usually either that I'm tired or busy. Or both. Being a work-at-home mom will do that to you I suppose, although if I wasn't working from home I'm sure I would still be both tired and busy. Because let's be honest y'all - being a mom is challenging enough without having to worry about eating well too. But it's still there though - that need to eat well for every reason under the sun. We want to fuel our bodies and our children's ... continue reading...
Italian Sausage and Cornbread Stuffed Pumpkins
Whenever I hear the word “fall,” my mind goes to two things: colorful leaves and pumpkin everything. Atypically as it may be, the pumpkin dreams aren’t always of lattes or pumpkin bread. Those are delicious and certainly staples on our family’s table, but there’s nothing that makes this season as cozy as a good stuffed pumpkin. Like a stuffed pepper, stuffed pumpkins make adorable and fun individual servings. This recipe has everything needed for a nutritious and tasty dinner, although a side ... continue reading...

HELLO FRIENDS! You guys, we made it again. It's Friday, it's Fall, and I'm totally splurging and getting a drink at Starbucks today. Maybe while wearing some black running tights, an oversized sweater, booties and a sassy scarf. It's about that time, right? Speaking of running tights (is that what they're called? I'm not a fashion blogger although sometimes I dream I could be...), HOLY GOODNESS Lululemon is outrageous. I have a few of their items that were gifted to me so I never ... continue reading...
7 Months Old!
This kid, y'all. He is such a ham and I just can't even handle it! Seven months has flown by which, if you'd asked me a few months ago, I never would have expected. I know I've mentioned it a few times but getting used to two kids was a massive challenge in the beginning. Guess what? It's still a challenge, but more and more one that I'm adjusting to. Let's just say that their cuteness always works in their favor ;) At seven months old this boy doesn't hold still for ... continue reading...
20-Minute Cassoulet

Cozy, charming, community-fueled recipes that require time and money and some more time to make so that you too can have a Pinterest-worthy life for the holidays. But y'all? I'm going to be real with you: my everyday life is ... continue reading...
Comforting Turkey Vegetable Chili
This is one of those recipes that I didn't really intend to share at all. It was Friday night, the witching hour was in full force, and I just wanted to have a meal ready to eat when Nate got home. I think that's one of the things I love the most about Tex-Mex food: you can literally give a Tex-Mex spin to almost any meal using almost any ingredients. It was slightly cold outside, so after a few hours outside we came in, warmed up, and I was able to get this pot of goodness on the stove in less ... continue reading...
Building a Better Playground: Part 1
I am being compensated to bring awareness to this project, but all words and opinions are my own. Before I met my husband I never had any desire to have children. They were foreign and scary to me; energetic beyond belief and couldn’t hold an adult conversation. Looking back I realize how silly it was for me to be scared because as soon as there was a chance of motherhood for me I dove head-first into learning about children. There truly is nothing as magically sweet and endearing as ... continue reading...
My Favorite Way to Save Money & Time
This post was sponsored by the FoodSaver® Brand through their partnership with POPSUGAR Select. While I was compensated to write a post about the FoodSaver® Vacuum Sealer System, all opinions are my own. I don’t know about y’all, but one thing I really enjoy is a great infomercial. Really truly, I love them and have been known to skip regularly scheduled programming in favor of watching infomercials for products that I find fascinating. I tell you this because one of those products that ... continue reading...
