False Advertising
That may sound like a strange title, but it’s true. You see, usually when I go yard-saling (is that even a word? probably not, because it’s underlined with a red squiggly line.), I just drive around looking for signs. I live near lots of different neighborhoods, so my method usually has pretty good results. This…

Date Night
Warning: this is a picture-heavy post. Okay, I warned you. Also, all these pics were taken with my ipod, so they aren’t super fab. But I wanted to share anyway. 🙂 For starters, my hubby announced that the “dress code” would be dressy casual. Usually, we both know where we’re going because we’ll go out…

And cheesy And overall amazingly delicious: But wait. Did I say this was family-friendly? In fact, even my little girl got in…

$3 Wall Art
Greetings and Salutations. 🙂 So I was in Hobby Lobby last month (looking for pin backs or some such nonsense) and cut through the wall art section to get to the jewelry section when I saw this: Wow. Big. Cool. And one other word popped into my head when I saw the price tag. I…

Baby Update…of sorts
Hello and happy Friday! but actually its 12:05 AM as I’m writing this. And I just took this picture of myself in the bathroom mirror at approximately 12:00 AM. See those white-ish spots? Yes, those are spots on the mirror. I saw them when I looked at the pic, but it was 12 AM and…

Bacon-Cantaloupe Wraps
Every once in a while, my hubby does something that seems kinda out of the ordinary. Not anything bad – just different and not something I would expect him to do. Before you start suspecting that it’s something horrid, allow me to explain: 🙂 Somehow I started getting Every Day with Rachael Ray mags for…

Quesadillas + Cucumber Salsa + Lemony Sour Cream
Summertime = fresh garden produce This past week, some friends gave us some yummy cucumbers from their garden. We love fresh cucumbers – cut into spears with a little salt sprinkled on them. Perfection. Not a big fan of those cucumber salads soaked in vinegar. I like them in their natural state best. However, we…

The Big Move
Well, as promised, I will share pics of our new abode. First of all, I should remind you that these are horrendous pics all taken with my ipod. Horrendous. Really horrendous. All that aside, I figured it would be better to share some bad quality pics than no pics at all. 😛 Second, these pics…
