Fun Friday Favorites: Valentine’s Day stuff and oh…some new tires

I realize how classy (except NOT) the title of this blog post sounded. Valentine's Day stuff.  Really?  Well, I didn't want to just say decor.  Because I'll be sharing about some out-of-this-world Valentine's Day candy that I. can't. stop. eating. And maybe a blouse or two that might be perfect for that Valentine's date you are going on.  (For the record, ...

Fun Friday Favorites: Board games, perfume, and Oreo Balls

It's been blustery cold here.  Between all of the late starts, early dismissals, and "Snow Day"/no school...it's hard for me to get back into ANY sort of routine.  I'm not complaining.  I'm just validating why I haven't been consistent on ANYTHING, except for wearing lounge wear or pajamas.  And catching up on some of my ...

November is here and friends, I am ready for some snow. ( If you dislike snow, then disregard what I just wrote.  And the next paragraph.)

I'm recovering rather nicely from the crud that hit earlier in the week.  And for those of you wondering...Maxim claims that his ribs are feeling much better, as well.  (For the record, I think we all know that I had a little one who experienced his first day of skipping school.  Don't tell the administration ...

Fun Friday Favorites: Bacon (yes, please!), fashion, and family moments

This week is a random of favorites.  I can't explain it other than blame it on my love of family, food, and fashion.   1.  Express cardigan - The perfect cozy cardigan I saw this at Express last weekend and fell in love with it.  I'm a sucker for a comfy, cozy cardigan that you can throw on ...

Fun Friday Favorites: Fashion, skin care (aka…anti-aging stuff), and fall food recipes

Well, it has been a delightful birthday week. I've spent time with friends and family, enjoyed some wonderful gifts along the way from very dear friends (think...some of my favorite things...Pumpkin Pie Skinny Lattes, Coffeesmith muffins, jewelry), I was able to work on writing, and actually cooked and baked this week. And that brings us to today.  The ...
