Happy Tuesday, friends! I’m here today with four easy recipes for you to make for dinner this week. All should take you less than 30 minutes. I have officially reached the point of summer where I feel like, as adults, we should really get a summer break. Needless to say, cooking dinner isn’t at the top list of my priorities…

Weekend Recap
Happy Monday – I’m back today with a recap of our relatively low-key weekend. It was raining all day Friday while I was working, so I knew that would be the perfect evening to just stay in. Aaron was on board, so as soon as I stopped working on Friday, it turned into pizza night at the Gomez house. We…
Happy Friday + Home to me
Happy Friday, friends. If you had a short week, I hope it was good to you. It’s been raining here in Houston for the greater part of the week, which tends to be an excuse for me to kind of slow down a bit. I’ve been especially nostalgic lately, especially as the fog lifts on the pandemic, and we begin…
Best Costco Summer Items
Remember when I said I had to do a Costco trip prior to my Fourth of July party? Well, I had to do a huge trip. I hadn’t been to Costco in awhile, so I needed a little bit of, well, everything. I always like to see what other people are buying at Costco, so I figured I’d share some…

Happy Fourth of July Weekend + Quick Moscow Mule Recipe
Happy Friday, friends, and happy Fourth of July weekend! We have a group of friends who like to get together for a pool party every year. The last two years have kind of been a wash. In 2019, Houston had torrential downpours that prevented any sort of get together. And, last year was COVID, so we opted to do our…
Happy July 1 – Sentence or two per picture
How have we already made it to July? figured it might be fun to share some photos and give ya’ll a sentence (or two) per picture. I feel like the last couple of months have been a blur with our trip to Mexico, the puppies and our house repairs. I’m prepping for a small 4th of July get together this…
Week three with our Golden Retriever Puppies
We are going on our third week with our new golden retriever puppies: Tex and Cali. I thought I’d give you a general update. If dogs aren’t your thing, then feel free to come back tomorrow 🙂 I’m sharing some of my favorite puppy toys and some of my favorite ways to keep them busy while I work from home.…
Before and After: Home Office Renovation
Okay friends. Now that we are on the flip side of our house repairs, I figured I’d show you some before and afters of my home office renovation. If you are new around here, my husband and I bought our first house back in September. We were fairly close to getting everything unpacked and put together when Winter Storm Uri…
