In Case You Missed It (November)

Happy December!  I have to confess I was tempted to skip my November recap today and jump straight into Christmas decorating and DIY --  this is one of my favorite times of year and I have a few cool projects in the works and loads of ideas for more.  But, it didn't seem right to short-change the month of November.  It was  a good one!  And I hope you all had a blessed Thanksgiving holiday and were able to linger among your loved ones for a … [Read more...]

Five on Friday (Black Friday Edition)

Hello there!!  Did you all survive your self-induced food coma yesterday?  Oh my word... I didn't think I would. ;-)   And the Aggies couldn't quite pull it out against LSU but there are more big games to come this weekend (War Eagle!).    We've been in South Georgia with my in-laws and now are headed to nurse my sister-in-law post foot-surgery for a couple of days.  Needless to say, I won't be out with the Black Friday crowds, but I did have … [Read more...]

Pumpkin Fluff (Tasty Treat Recipe)

Happy Monday, folks!  I am on Thanksgiving break this week and am LOVING the chance to do some holiday baking, crafting, and decorating!  Last week just got crazy so the chance to breathe a bit is so very welcome. Today I'm sharing a super easy recipe for your holiday gathering (or just because!).  I got this a few years back from a sweet little shop so I can't properly credit whomever came up with this, but we've enjoyed it many times over … [Read more...]

A Peek at My Booth…

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...]

In Case You Missed it: October

Oh my goodness.  November, y'all.   Over the weekend, I had to turn my heat on and we enjoyed our first fire of the season... well, the boys and I did anyway.  The hubs was off to enjoy his first weekend of hunting season.  So I got my craft on in a huge way and got my booth all squared away for our Holiday Open House later this week!  I'll share pics on Wednesday, but for today I'm recapping a very busy October.  Just in case you missed it. I … [Read more...]

Five on Friday

Holy smokes, y'all... tomorrow is November!    Yowza!  If you follow me on Instagram, you know I had a busy week with the Little Ones -- Halloween is so much fun for them I always feel like I'm along for their ride, at least for a couple of days. :) Anyway, I enjoyed sharing a little randomness last Friday, so I'm thinking every so often I'll offer up a Five on Friday post, just for fun.   I've been back on my painting and DIY'ing horse this … [Read more...]

Country Living Fair 2014

Y'all.  What a beautiful fall weekend we had for the Country Living Fair!   It was just a fabulous and fun time all the way around.   I had a sweet friend from out of town that joined me and I also got to meet up with local blogging friends and Country Living folks!  I tried to snap pics of what was fun and catching my eye... Of course, our first stop was Cari's booth... that's her husband painting a piece with her new line of paints!  I … [Read more...]

Five on Friday

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.  I've had a few things mulling around my brain this week, so thought I'd just smoosh them all into one random post.  Hope you don't mind! 1  A Whole30 update.  Okay, here's the deal.  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...]

Feed A Crowd: Roasted Chicken & Potatoes

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...]
