I hope everyone is enjoying their Memorial Day weekend! Greg and I’ve been busy at work crossing some things off the never-ending To Do List. Last night, we finished up a project in the laundry...
By now, you can tell from the recipes I’ve shared here on the blog that when it comes to cooking, I like to keep things super simple. Once in a while I like to venture out and try something a l...
The day we bought our house, our tool arsenal, or lack thereof, was very slim. We owned one hammer, a set of screwdrivers, a wrench or two, and a picture hanging kit. That’s pretty much all you...

Okay, so I’m pretty sure this is going to be one of those “love it” or “hate it” kind of mood boards. However, truth be told, it’s one of my favorites so far. I am...
I’m sure when it comes to the kitchen, I sometimes sound like that annoying kid in the backseat saying, “Are we there yet? Are we there yet?”. Luckily, things are starting to come t...

Greg and I had a doozy of a weekend. We set out to tackle our major to-do list which consisted of boring stuff like filing, blog maintenance, getting the oil changed, clearing off the patio, etc. Jus...
I’m all about fast and easy meals. On top of that, I’m normally one of those go-by-the-recipe kind of “cooks”. All of that went out the window a few weeks ago when I decided t...

A few weeks ago, I got a sample of a new (and very yummy smelling) dish soap in the mail. It was called “dish soap” so that means it can go in the little soap compartment in the dishwashe...
