It’s been a great week- I’m here today with some favorites from the week, and I want to share a healthier zucchini bread recipe. May is Employee Appreciation month, so I got to wrap up an hour earlier yesterday evening. I loved having the extra hour back on Friday-Eve. What did I do with that extra hour? I took a…
Happy Thursday! I skipped blogging yesterday because I was up late the night before for my first ever tennis lesson. As soon as I parked my car in the driveway, we had a nasty storm come through, so I just didn’t sleep all that well. Ya win some, ya lose some. When I started blogging again last year, I wanted…
Happy Tuesday, friends. Today’s post is going to be dedicated to my love of coffee – specifically coffee that comes our of my Nespresso Vertuo machine. If coffee isn’t your thing – can we even be friends? Just kidding, I know it’s not for everyone, but it is for me. I rely heavily on coffee to get motivated to take…
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Aaron has been out of town on business since Thursday, so I’ve been flying solo. And, while I was bummed I had to miss out on this trip, I had some things that needed to get done in Houston. On Friday, I had two contractors lined up to come to house to…
Happy Thursday, friends. I’m looking forward to closing out this work week in one short day. In the Gomez household, we have been trying to switch up some of my weeknight dinner menus lately because I can tend to make the same things on repeat. So, I created a new recipe: spicy seared tuna bowls. This is based loosely off…
I saw this post on Shelly’s blog, and I thought it would be a fun exercise to answer these – and be able to look back and remember this time in our lives. What was life like early in 2020? January 2020 was fabulous. We were excited about the year ahead, and we made a trip to visit some of…
Happy Tuesday! My week is off to a wonderful start already. Don’t you love it when you can check some things off your to-do list? I know I sure do. One of the items on my to-do list for the month of May was to get our pool ready for the summer. Because it was covered all winter, it needed…
How was your Mother’s Day Weekend? I know this can be a tough day for many women, and I hope that you feel celebrated no matter which stage of life you are in. And, to all the moms, grandmothers, mother-in-laws and the women in our lives who have supported us like moms: thank you. Since my mom is in California,…
Happy Friday! I’m so glad it’s almost the weekend. It’s been a good week. Our neighbors bought some mulch in bulk, and they asked if we wanted their extra. I’ve never mulched a darn thing in my life, but Aaron says it’s good fertilizer for the soil. So, we took them up on their offer, and we’ve been mulching our…
Happy Wednesday – and Happy Cinco de Mayo! This is one of my favorite holidays. So, in lieu of my typical “Work Wednesday” post, I figured I would share some memories of Cinco’s past. And they’ve been good ones because your girl likes a marg. So, it all started when I was in college. I went to Baylor, and Ninfa’s…
