What to Write When You Don’t Have Anything to Write About
My mind has not been on the house or the blog lately. In fact, my mind is being pulled in so many different directions that it’s not really “on” anything at the moment. It’s just bouncing around like a pin ball, careening off my skull, setting off lights and bells, then as it begins a …
Unique and Inspiring Outdoor Spaces
I’m a little overwhelmed with the amount of work my yard needs. Generally, when I am overwhelmed, my first course of action is known as the Ostrich. I stick my head in a hole and pretend it’s not happening. That usually is a fail, so the next thing is find some inspiration to get my …
A House Fit for An American Girl
American Girl Dolls are sort of a right of passage for many young girls. Usually around 6 or 7, parents decide their little darling is ready for the responsibility of a $100 (ish) doll. Once you’re done buying the doll, however, you realize that the dolls (and all their stuff!) need a cute place to …
What I Made This Week
Today, I have for you, two home made concoctions. One is for eating, one is for giving. Let’s feed our souls, first, shall we? Today, someone dear to our family is in the hospital. The only time I’ve ever spent time in the hospital was to have my kids. Even though I was there for …

Sneak in a Workout
“Sneak in a workout” is what my husband says when he wants to run to the gym for an hour or three and work out and play basketball. While I’m not always a fan of the length of time he spends at the gym, I am a fan of the concept of “sneaking in a …
Bedroom Refresh
I caught up on lots of things this weekend, including finally hanging the made over mirror and the transformed portal. The made over mirror took the place of a trio of contemporary floral canvases from Ikea. I still love those three pieces, so I wanted to find them a home. They have a smidge of orange in them, …
What I Made This Week
I cooked up (well, mixed, really) some Pinterest inspired cleaning antidotes this weekend. I pinned a bunch that I have been meaning to try and I’m pretty happy with the results, even though they weren’t all successful. The first one I tried is a shower/bathtub cleaner. It had rave reviews on Pinterest, but I was …
