In case you’ve been living under a rock or frankly, just don’t care about professional football (ahem), I’ll let you in on a little secret…. The reason why there are all those NFL billboards with the silly Roman Numerals around town is also the reason why grocery stores seem only to care about chips, salsa […]
J and I just got back from a short trip to Saint Louis. It was wonderful. If you’re from Missouri, this might shock you. Or so I hear. Apparently people from Kansas City aren’t too keen on St. Louis. After going this weekend, I seriously cannot imagine why. It was so much fun. And free […]
I bet you didn’t know it was National Oatmeal Month, did you? You remember how much I love oats right? I’m seriously an Oat-Snob. Yes, there are such things as Oat- Snobs out there. You may have heard about Coffee-Snobs and Wine-Snobs but I want to introduce you to the Oat- Snob. I can’t stand […]
Growing up, I hated winter… Winter always came with the one thing that I hated most in the world…. tights. My mom was adamant about me wearing tights instead of letting me bare my hairy little, pre-teen legs. Anytime I wore anything but pants the tights came out. I thought having to wear these itchy, stomach […]
I just can’t seem to shake it. It’s still January…which means it’s still Human Trafficking Awareness Month. I know you know this. We talked about it a week or two ago. But I just can’t seem to shake my feeling of needing to talk about it…often. I was reminded at church tonight, how important it […]
This is a recipe that you are going to want to make A.S.A.P.. Especially if you live in the midwest and cried when you saw that it was 2 degrees this morning when you woke up…whomp whomp. I made this soup for my in-laws last week… it was a hit… Probably because it was fraining […]
Do you ever sit around and think about what your dream job would be? I feel like this is the adult version of the question you get asked as a 7 year old… “What are you going to be when you grow up?” I think I feel that way because my answers are equally outrageous […]
You may have noticed that I have a few obnoxious strong opinions. Like, such as…(insert Ms. South Carolina quote)…. I have anxiety attacks when people don’t take advantage of their free curb-side recycling…. I launch into conniption fits when I think of the inventor of Styrofoam… Last night I dreamt about digging through trash at a […]
Inspiration is a funny thing isn’t it. I have set down multiple times today to post about this pretty incredible pie we made a few weeks back but everytime….. Nothing. That’s what I get. Or hand puppets. You heard me right. I was snapping pics of our fave cookbook and 37 seconds later, I found […]
If you are Facebook friends with anyone in Northern Indiana, then you know that today is a snow day. Unfortunately, college admissions offices didn’t get the memo that the roads were too treacherous to travel. I guess that’s the downside to walking to work… You never get a snow day. You can always, and I mean always, […]
