It’s Halloween but you know what’s weird? It doesn’t feel like Halloween. Not that I specifically know what Halloween should feel like.. but I know this ain’t it. Maybe because it’s a Monday. Or Maybe because it’s FREEZING here and after two years in the Midwest, I’m still not used to it. It’s 77 today in my […]
Yesterday was one of those days. Do you know what I mean? Not only did I give a presentation to a group of people who could’ve cared less if I would have fallen through the floor… but I got flipped off driving home. It was one of those days. It rained today. It rained like all day […]
Remember when I promised you I’d post about my rediscovery and obsession with quinoa? Well, as promised, here is the post. Excited, aren’t you? I know. Just try and contain yourself. Seriously. You’re excitement is kind of pathetic. A sweet and precious friend of mine somehow ended up with a double subscription to Better Homes […]
Ever since Lena posted this about new uses for wine corks, I have been itching to make something myself out of them. So, after six months of saving up and asking everyone I know for their old wine corks, I finally did it! I was perusing Pinterest Friday night and came across this… I figure […]
If you’re anything like me, then I’m sure most of you are unaware of how awesome the city of Grand Rapids is. Seriously, this place rocks!

In light of the fall festivities that seem to be in full swing these day, I thought I’d post a little how-to on roasting your own pumpkin seeds. This past weekend lovely Lena held a little pumkin’ carving party. So, I figure she might enjoy this post too, since I know she’s really excited about […]
It’s fall which means that one of my favorite fruit is now in season… caramel apples. I am convinced that before the fall of man, caramel apples grew on trees. I mean why not? They are heavenly, aren’t they? And I mean you can’t feel guilty for eating 3 or 4 of them… you gotta […]
I was doing my routine weekend morning grocery shopping when I bumped into this lil cutie… Have you seen these in the store yet? Now I really do enjoy some coffee with my creamer so obviously, this caught my attention. As I reached for it, I again had a “skeptic” moment and compared it to […]
I’m in love… I realize that I say that phrase about a hundred times a week here but this time…. I mean it. Have you heard all the hype about Neutrogena’s new naturals line? I wanted to be a skeptic at first…. and quite honestly I was. I thought, “This is just another gimmick for people […]
It’s that season here in Indiana… you know the corny one? The stalks have turned brown and the traffic jams behind the combines have commenced…. yep, corn is definitely in season! In light of this, I. Made. Corny. Chowder. I realize that it’s called corn chowder, but isn’t it so much more fun just to […]
