Hello! As promised, today is the day of the bathroom tour. We all love a good bathroom tour, don’t we? After coming down the hall from the guest room and master bedroom, this is the first sight that greets you: The shower curtain and towels are from Target – one of the few things I…

Master Bedroom Tour
Last year, one of my blogging goals was to get around to a little house tour. It’s taken me a while because I’ve been working to get pictures that are somewhat decent. Unfortunately, that Better Homes & Gardens photographer never showed up {ahem} and so you’re stuck with me as the photog. That means it looks…

Hello, lovelies. This week, I must have been hungry. Or something. Maybe I just tried a lot of good food this week. Anyway, I decided to share 5 foodie links with you today. I have made every single one of these recipes. And deemed them all worthy of sharing. And re-making. May you leave hungrier…

Change Your Perspective
I have 3 kids. 4, 2, and 3 months. They have each gotten sick over the past 2 months. All at different times, of course. Flu, bronchiolitis, and RSV respectively. These things + the fact that my 3 month old still wakes up at night to eat and my 4 year old sometimes wakes up…

my Christmas in pictures
I hope you all had a merry Christmas? I certainly did. I was so, so excited to spend extra time with my little family! Our Christmas vacation started out a bit rough…landing Nate in the doctor’s office for a sick visit on Christmas Eve! This gave me a whole new appreciation for doctors and nurses…

My friend, Laine, had a Mommy interview. For your encouragement, Mamas. A free printable calendar from Handmade Home! And it’s cute! This creamy potato soup {hello, bacon} sounds delish. I made this french bread on Wednesday. It was easy + good. I make these Chocolate Mint Dreams every Christmas. But I have yet to make…

Toasted Marshmallow Hot Chocolate
O yes, I did. Several weeks ago, Jonathan and I were about to get in some Scrabble action. And I’m always a fan of having special food/drink during special events. Inspired by this pin {thanks, Amanda!}, I decided to whip up some hot chocolate. But not just any hot chocolate – toasted marshmallow hot chocolate. Here’s…

A fuzzy tree tutorial – easy enough to whip out in 15 minutes. I love a sweet + salty combination, so these Chocolate Turtle Cookies are right up my alley. I refuse to make them unless we’re having friends over … otherwise I will eat them all. I have a feeling my kids would…
