Happy Wednesday (for those of you who aren’t Houston Astros fans). For those of us who live in Houston, that was a rough loss last night. I’ll always be a ‘Stros fan, and they had a heck of a season. Proud of them for making it to the World Series! Last week I shared about my time as a Baylor…

I’ve been having kind of a difficult time thinking about what to make. On paper, we are officially in fall, which normally calls for some cooler-weather foods. But, my weather apps are telling me…

Happy happy happy Friday! I’m starting my weekend off early today. I’m having a little photo shoot with the puppies a little bit later this morning, and I can’t wait to see how the pictures turn out.

Happy Wednesday, friends. Did anyone watch the season premier of The Bachelorette last night? I did, and I’ll start recapping after a couple of weeks when they begin narrowing down the men. I’m so looking forward for Michelle to be The Bachelorette, and I think she will do a wonderful job. But today, I’m sharing my fall decor! I don’t…

We made it to Friday, friends! I can almost taste the weekend. I’ve got two meetings, one proposal submission and one (rather large) project standing in my way to the weekend. I know that I”ll sure feel accomplished once I make it to the end of my day. What a week it’s been. If you missed my post yesterday, I…
