Encouraging moms they can do ALL THINGS through Christ who strengthens them!
Every year, as the new year approaches I start trying to decide which planner to use for the upcoming year. I scour the internet and search my local office supply stores but I never quite find exactly what I’m looking for. Last year, I had an Erin Condren Life Planner, I loved that planner, it was so pretty and had a lot of great […]

Is it the weekend yet? I love weekends in the fall, there is always so much going on- pumpkin patches, hayrides, apple orchards, church events, family reunions, sports and just about everyone is having some sort of fall festival. So much to do, and yet it doesn’t feel as overwhelming and busy as other times of the year. I think everyone is excited for the break […]

For a little over a year now, I’ve been looking for a desk. Not just any desk, but a pretty desk. Oh, and it had to have storage. And I didn’t want to spend a small fortune for it either. I have looked at consignment stores, I’ve searched online ads, and thrift shops. I found lots and lots of desks. […]

Chicken legs are an inexpensive and easy alternative to burgers. We got a pack of 14 for about $5, but if you watch for sales you can […]

Remember “the dress”, the controversial picture that went viral? Some people saw gold, others saw blue. Turns out it was a visual problem. The way our screens portrayed the colors or something. The dress was in fact blue, but LOTS of people saw gold. There’s another Blue/Gold confusion sweeping the nation but it’s not a vision problem- it’s a heart […]

I love eating zucchini everyday while it’s in season (no, really, I do!) but I’m also a practical girl. I wanted a way to preserve zucchini and squash throughout the year for all types of recipes. So, naturally, I did what anyone does these days.. I asked if anyone had any suggestions on facebook, LOL. That’s when my friend Merissa, from […]

Last year I found out I was allergic to wheat, which means I am officially gluten free now. Most people don’t exactly know what that is and assume it’s either to help lose weight or just means I can’t eat wheat bread. I actually had a few people say “well you can still eat white bread, right?” umm.. no. No […]

“Hey Mama-mia Bring your Mama to Carrabba’s” Have you heard that catchy little jingle? It usually comes on around Mother’s Day but it sticks with me all year long. Ask my husband, I just randomly belt it out. Monday was my Mom’s birthday and of course that song came to mind. Since we are on a budget, taking her to […]

I mentioned last week that my little girl loves strawberries! (What’s not to love?) As a result we almost always have some in the refrigerator. One of my favorite things to do with them is make strawberry spinach salad. Yum. It’s light and a little sweet- perfect for a summer dinner or even a quick lunch. I love the simplicity […]

During the summer I love to make things for dinner that don’t heat up my house. I use the microwave, the grill and the crock pot to my full advantage! It’s already 90 something degrees outside- who wants to stand over a burner or crank an oven up to 350°? Not me! Especially since our air isn’t really all that […]

I mentioned in a post on Tuesday that I have been potty training my little girl this week. We’ve had our ups.. and downs and so far we have made hardly any progress but one of these days (after telling her over and over) she’s going to get it and on that day we are going to celebrate!! All our hard work […]
