Fun Friday Favorites: Beach Fashion because I’m ready for summer

I'm clearly aware that it is May 1st...May Day.  And I hope you are busy helping your children fill up Solo cups with popcorn and licorice and bubble gum because we MUST KEEP THE MAY DAY TRADITION GOING STRONG.  I ran to Target last night to buy the last three bags of pre-popped popcorn and stocked ...

Fun Friday Favorites: What our week has been like and some spring fashion

Lately, I've been riding this crazy roller coaster and whew.  It is exhausting.  For starters, I finished the first draft of my book.  Can I get a HALLELUJAH?  As you know, I'm writing a memoir about my life and this week, I finished it!  (That was the fun part of the roller coaster ride.)  Now, ...

Fun Friday Favorites: Luck o’ the Irish

My whole intentions were to highlight Easter decor today.  Maybe it's because I finally took down all of the the winter decorations on Tuesday in the midst of a prednisone-enhanced cleaning spree and put up all manner of bunnies, tulips, and more.  But Maxim.  Our little guy.  He called me out.

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, ...
