September’s Favorite Things

Another busy weekend behind us and another busy week before us!  And here we are in October! Wow, as reluctant as I was to embrace September, I have to admit that it's a pretty wonderful month.  And it's been a little rocky, too, so I was so happy to pull together this post of the wonderful things I enjoyed.  Always good to camp out on the positive, no? So without further ado... my favorite things from September! 1.  3 of my favorite … [Read more...]

August’s Favorite Things

Yowza, it's so hard to believe we are rocking into SEPTEMBER!  A whole new crop of Little Ones to acclimate, new routines for my high schoolers, new football season, new goals for a successful school year.  But with all of that comes a whole lotta time constraints.  So if my visiting and commenting on blogs drops off a bit and I may have to post a little less, just know that I'm still here... still writing, DIY'ing as best I can, and reading as … [Read more...]

Yumminess {Homemade Mac n Cheese]

I confess:  I've been in a funk since I dropped My Girl off at college last week. *Sigh*  Thank goodness my teaching year gears up again on Monday to help me snap the heck out of this! For her "last supper" at home, My Girl requested this delish mac and cheese dish that came to me from my friend Harriet. Since you busy wives and moms are readying for back-to-school and football weekends (War Eagle! Go Dawgs!), I thought I'd share it with … [Read more...]
