Hey there and TGIF!!! Whew. I had quite the week in my classroom, but I'll save all those thoughts for another time. Today I'm jetting off to The Big Easy with my BFF for my 25 year reunion at Tulane! Woo hoo!! I haven't been to New Orleans since Katrina, so I'm anxious to see how it's changed. AND Tulane has a brand new football stadium so we've got some fun in store this weekend. You may or may not see some shenanigans on Instagram. … [Read more...]

Well, THAT title is a mouthful, isn't it!? Happy Friday, y'all! Today I'm sharing a fun new project that has me swooning and ready to deck the halls... well, sorta. What I love about this is that you could use it year round in your decor. Think "rustic chic" for holiday and everyday. :) I spotted these unfinished wood deer heads online at Unfinished Wood Company. If you haven't heard of them, click immediately over to their website. … [Read more...]

Hi everyone! I hope you all took the time to get out and VOTE yesterday! Here in ATL, our schools were closed for the day so I got a bonus day at home to get some things done after voting... and if you follow me on Instagram, you saw I ended up shoe shopping, too. Oops. ;-) #sorrynotsorry I ended up with some to. die. for. smokey taupe wedges. Thank goodness for a BFF that was available by text to seal the deal. :) And how did we ever shop … [Read more...]

Howdy hoo, y'all... and TGIF! I've had a super busy week and am really looking forward to some downtime and fun this weekend.

Eating clean, whole foods and eliminating all the sugars and preservatives really hasn't been that hard. In fact, the hubs and I … [Read more...]

Wednesday already? This week is flying by! We're enjoying the most beautiful weather here and I'm enjoying a productive week so far. How about you? Today I'm sharing another of my go-to dishes for feeding the masses that seem to land in my home at dinner time. There's often the last minute "hey Mom, can so-and-so stay for dinner so we can finish our project/watch the game" so I've hit on a few strategies that feed a lot without breaking … [Read more...]
