My three biggest fears are:  Snakes.  Tornadoes.  Throwing up. Those fears I would categorize as rational.  Snakes can bite you and also they’re creepy and gross.  Tornadoes are destructive windy forces that can level your neighborhood and send your car flying into the air (I’m still having nightmares from the movie Twister, which came out […]

Since it’s Monday and I stayed up way too late watching the Oscars last night (still getting over the Best Picture craziness!), I thought I’d do a post on that haven of caffeine we all know and love – Starbucks.  Don’t get me wrong, I’m a fan of all things coffee, and I have yet […]

Happy Friday once again!!  I hope you have something fun to look forward to and that you’ll get a break from the week.  So many of my loved ones and clients lead crazy busy lives.  I know things can get hectic for all of us at times.  In busy seasons, people will often tell me […]

I don’t know how the weather is where you live, but we were blessed with some WAY unseasonably warm weather this weekend and were all too happy to make the most of it!  Hard to believe a week ago we had a major snow storm!  But I’ll take it!  We took the kids to Central […]

Hello again!!  My mind has been on all things celebrating this week, probably because I still have Kool and the Gang stuck in my head from yesterday.  I’m also hosting some friends for dinner next week and I’ve been on the lookout for ways to go the extra mile for them.  The menu is all […]

How was everyone’s Valentine’s Day?  I hope you all felt the love and spent precious time with everyone you hold dear!  My little Valentines were delighted by their candies and small gifts from my husband and I, and if you follow me on Instagram, you saw my husband delighted me with the complete works of […]
