Happy Wednesday. Boy do I have a random post for you today. I’ve got a couple of things on my mind including a new recipe, engagement gifts and a new Therabody product!

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Maybe you celebrated your mom – or maybe you honored some strong female role models who have been present in your life.

What’s for dinner Wednesday
We’ve made it to Wednesday, friends. Does this week seem like it’s gone on forever to anyone else? I’ve got a half day of work on Friday, and my in-laws are headed to Houston for Easter weekend. If I look back to this time last year, we had just said goodbye to my Soy Boy, and I was still coming…

I had one of those days yesterday where I found it really hard to get into my work zone. I’m having a hard time regaining focus this new year. So, I did what always works when I need to clear my mind, and I took the dogs out for a walk. Houston weather is back in the 70s (for about…
Christmas Crack and Other Holiday Treats
Baking for friends, family and neighbors has always been one of my favorite holiday traditions. My mom and I would get busy in the kitchen each Christmas, after spending weeks planning which treats would make the cut each year. This tradition became even more special, as it usually marked my return home for the holidays once I was in college.…
