We’ve made it through another season of The Bachelorette. Reality Steve says that they won’t do so many back to back seasons moving forward. (can we also cut the episodes back to one hour? Asking for a friend). The finale is a live episode, with Kaitlyn hosting. Tayshia was exposed to COVID, so Kaitlyn is flying solo tonight. Now, if…
Happy Tuesday, friends. I hope that your week is off to a wonderful start and that you are geared up for the holidays. I’m counting down the days (T-1.5) until my vacation begins. At 2 p.m. tomorrow, I’m off for 11 glorious days. Aaron and I are going to head to California to spend Christmas with my family, and I’m…
We made it, and I feel like this week absolutely flew by. I have one more project I’m trying to get done today, so it can be a relatively quiet week next week. I’m also looking forward to some time off the week after Christmas. I’m really going to try to unplug, not check email and just have some quiet…
Happy Thursday, friends. It’s good to be back to regularly scheduled programming this week. I thought we had one more weekend before Christmas, but we are just down to one, my friends. My shopping is done, the stocking are hung and the festivities are in full force. I’ve got a to-do list miles long for work, but I’m just trying…
I’m back today recapping The Bachelorette, and this week is Fantasy Suites Week (You can read previous recaps here). Michelle and her guys are in Punta de Mita, Mexico. The three men left are Joe (Minnesota Joe), Nayte and Brandon. Tayshia encourages the men to break down any walls they might have up so they can use their time behind…
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.…
Happy Monday, friends. Sorry for being a bit out of pocket last week, but we had a ton going on. I’ll share more details about last week’s surprise in today’s post. I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. I can’t believe we only have 13 days until Christmas! I tried my hardest to do all the things like finish…
Happy Thursday, friends. Thanks for sticking with kind of a crazy blogging schedule this week. I went to Houston Zoo Lights on Tuesday evening and had the best time. I’ve recapped Zoo Lights before because it’s truly one of my favorite Houston holiday traditions. Traditions Speaking of, can I take a second and reflect on traditions, because I’ve got a…
Happy Tuesday, friends. Sorry I missed you yesterday, but I didn’t stop moving until about midnight on Sunday evening, and I was in some need of a few extra snooze-button hits yesterday morning. We had such a busy weekend, but we got so much done. Why were we so busy this weekend? It’s because we’ve got quite the week ahead…
Happy Friday – I feel like it’s been one heck of a first week in December. I am looking forward to the weekend – anyone else? I’ve got a fun little Friday ahead of me. I’m sitting here, drinking my Gingerbread Nespresso coffees, which are definitely showing up on my list of favorites this week, digging into email and several…
