Buy It, Spy It or DIY It – Anthropologie Edition
I get a spontaneous drooling problem when I visit Anthropologie’s website. There are so many beautiful things that I, a. can’t afford and b. don’t feel properly equipped, design wise, to incorporate the gorgeousness into my humble home. I do see lots of things that are diy-able or that I’ve seen elsewhere for less. Which …
Archery Themed Birthday Party
We had a milestone in our family this summer! My sweet daughter turned 10! It’s very exciting and she’s the best 10 year old on the planet. We had a small family party for her on her birthday, but for her “friends” party, she chose to have an Archery party. There is a a facility …
DIY Sugar Scrubs for Luxurious Skin
Am I the only one that sees a DIY Sugar Scrub on Pinterest and simultaneously wants to eat it AND slather myself in it? I mean they are always named things like “Raspberry Lemon Sugar Scrub” or “Pumpkin Spice Sugar Scrub”. That’s something you want to eat, right? ***This post contains affiliate links. If you …
Working on a Gallery Wall
About a hundred years ago I wrote a post about Gallery Wall Inspiration. But, then, I never actually made my own gallery wall. I wanted to buy things to fill the gallery wall. I couldn’t find the right things to fill it with. They had to be the right price, the right texture, the right …
What I Made this Week – Floretine-ish Egg Casserole
I’ve discovered that one of the hardest things about staying on a diet that restricts certain ingredients, (like the low carb, paleo-ish, wheat belly inspired thing that I’m doing) is that you can’t just grab a quick granola bar or cookie or other processed, wheat laden product when you’re hungry. Unless, you’ve done a little …

Vacation Purchases
I found some cool stuff on my vacation! And I’m going to share it with you! I love shopping on vacation, but I like to try to buy things that don’t scream souvenir (yes, I had to google how to spell souvenir. That totally doesn’t look right). I like to get things that I will …
Refreshed by the Lakes and Mountains
We took a way too short vacation and I really want to share it. We went to Laconia, NH and stayed minutes from Weirs Beach. It’s a place I went with my family as a child and I’ve always loved it’s laid back, easy going vibe. We rented a little condo right on the water. …
Nana’s Attic
I discovered a treasure trove of goodies just around the corner from me. It’s my parents attic. My kids had been begging me to go up there and explore, so I finally did and found tons of cool stuff! I’m going to do a little series on the things I find and the makeovers I …
