For this week’s post, I want to start with some visualization exercises – to start, please envision a hippopotamus. If you need help, here’s what one looks like: Now please close your eyes and imagine that hippo running through quicksand, clad in spandex. BINGO! That is exactly what I feel like when I run! And […]
I hardly ever eat breakfast because I have the metabolism of a rock and I just am not hungry first thing in the morning, but breakfast foods are among my favorite foods in the world – I mean, BACON! Am I right? That just makes anything better! French toast also has to be right up […]
Ok, reason number 4,367 that you know you’re a mom – the absolute biggest highlight of your week was finding a nice park for the kids to play so you can be outside for awhile! One of the downsides to being in an apartment with toddlers is that there is absolutely no space to play […]
Salmon is my favorite fish, and there are so many delicious ways to cook it, but let’s be real, it can get a bit expensive. I whipped up this little salmon dinner a few weeks ago using canned salmon instead, and it turned out great! A little different, but full of flavor and very satisfying! […]
We’ve been trying to fight the battle of being occupied vs. occupying yourself here in this house lately.

It’s so hysterically funny to see the misshapen cakes, ugly crafts and butchered home haircuts – but if we are honest, doesn’t life go that way? I feel like most parts of my life are a game of “Expectation vs. Reality” with me clinging so tightly […]
Ok, I probably haven’t mentioned it but I am originally from Maryland, and if you are a true-blue Baltimoron (I can say that since I was from there) you add Old Bay to just about anything you can think of — popcorn, chips, fries, and of course CRAB DIP! If it wouldn’t give me heart […]
This is one of those posts that is trying to get out all on its own, and I have to write it when no one else is around because the tears are probably going to stream down my face as I type. For me, writing is, and always has been cathartic, and sometimes it just […]
We are currently in an apartment complex, but I drug hubby to the home store this past weekend to buy my some shade plants because I need my home to have some greenery!! I feel like its such a little thing, but can transform a space into a home. Also love this sign as a […]
