Happy Friday, friends. I’m so glad it’s Friday – it’s been a jam packed week. I don’t have any meetings on my schedule today, which means I can put my head down and get some uninterrupted work in.

Happy Wednesday, friends. I’m starting this morning off with my old tried and true: my greek yogurt with granola and strawberries. One of the things I’ll miss most as we say goodbye to summer, is the summer fruits. Fresh peaches, fresh strawberries, nectarines and watermelons, I’m talking to you. I also made some batches of my chia seed pudding last…

Happy Friday – we officially made it to the end of the week, and I am so ready for the weekend. With the crazy of last weekend, I have tried to keep my weekend as low key as possible. I’ve got a little tennis lesson this evening, and Aaron and I are having dinner with Alice at some point. We’ve…

The easiest crockpot meal: beef and broccoli

beef and broccoli

Happy Wednesday! It’s still pretty hot in Houston, so I’m not quite ready to transition into my fall foods quite yet. I still feel like we have a few more opportunities to grill and enjoy some of my favorite summer foods. I do love a good fall dish, though, and I’m thinking ahead to all the fun recipes I’ll be…

Happy Monday, friends! I hope your week is already off to a nice start. Anyone else have the Sunday Scaries yesterday? I’ll admit – I did a bit. My weekend felt way too short, and I just wasn’t ready to hop right into another week. But, I woke up, grabbed my coffee, got ready and started tackling email. And you…
