I made a big push in the One Room Challenge this week. I finally totally, 100% finished painting the room. I order my next to the bed lights. And I picked out, bought and hung window treatments! The curtains I chose are the white Vivan curtains from Ikea. I’ve used them a bunch of times …

I have a new thing. I wake up early on the weekends. It’s not on purpose. I don’t set an alarm. It’s just been happening and I’m enjoying it. It’s super quiet when no one else is awake. Except for my cat who is sitting next to me staring at me and purring and trying …

My usual first post of the week is a recipe, but I’ve been thinking about switching things up a little bit and making this (usually) Monday (yes, I know it’s Tuesday today) post more about things I’ve tried and liked. It might be a recipe, a new product or a life hack that I’ve unearthed …
