Last week was a rough one for me. After a wonderful little vacation the weekend before, I was just not happy to be back. I went through a day of grumbling about my job. The following day, I was annoyed that I had been too tired to work out both mornings since we had been back, … Read more
Oh the weather has been crazy in my life. Last week started out pretty mild. By Thursday, it was snowing, ugly, and cold. At that point, we decided it was time to jump Salt Lake City, and head 5 hours south to St George, Utah, where the temperatures are at least 30 degrees warmer. Walking … Read more
Earlier in the week, I posted my Chocolate Covered Strawberry Cupcakes to celebrate my Blogaversary. Some of the cupcakes had some hand-written words on top of them for embellishment. A couple people asked me how to create something like this, so I figured I’d create a short tutorial. It’s really so simple and adds a stunning … Read more

So if you’ve been around my blog for long enough, you probably know that I usually resist the normal trend of posting food color-coded to the next holiday with coordinating sprinkles on top. It’s just not my thing. But you know what is my thing? About three days before the holiday, I freak out … Read more
Mondays. Another weekend has passed us by in a blink of an eye. Yet again were we awakened by the rude Monday morning alarm clock. You scowl at it, you make it snooze about 10 times, and then you rush to throw on your Monday blues clothes (ie hoodie and jeans), hoping you won’t run … Read more
What a beautiful beautiful weekend. After a super crazy week that included a 3-day headache in my life, I am welcoming the weekend, even if it means I’m spending much of it inside working.
