February was such a clustermuddle of misery. Between the flu, the weather, sick kids at school, and again…the flu, I was so ready to turn the page to March. Bring on spring, Spring Break, my birthday, and the first pitch of Braves Baseball. Spring recipes including a leek soup and fresh asparagus for omelets. I …
This might be a tad boring. But here we go. 1. What I am eating.- Comfort food. Sick people food. Struggle bus food. If it’s not chicken soup, then it’s this. Rice, peppers and sausage. I can’t remember the last time I really enjoyed cooking a great meal and sitting down to the table. The …
February was a STRUGGLE to get in at least 6 books. And if I’m being honest, I phoned in the Phonics book. I had to read it for school. And the Keto Masterclass isn’t exactly a book..but it counts because it is a lot of pages in PDF form so it COULD have been a …
My Plan With Me is abysmal for this month. Take a look why. This is called “When Plans Fail” Here is my weekly spread for last week. Spending Valentine’s Day home sick with the flu wasn’t exactly what I had in mind for last week. In fact, when I opened my planner on Sunday, I …
It’s time for the February edition of Show and Tell. This month, let’s talk about a whole house cleaning schedule. So, I know some of your are saying “You don’t have kids, why do you need a cleaning schedule??” Because…priorities. And Netflix. And Kindergarten. And a beautiful dog named Atlas. And a gazillion other things …
Welcome to another weekend meal prep roundup. I really should have made a roundup of flu recovery tricks. It would include mostly my whiskey cough syrup and a random soup recipe. That’s all that’s been cooked in this house lately. With all the medicine I had to take, all the Gatorade and chicken+rice soup, all …
Apparently, my ebola tent didn’t work, either. Nothing for this week. I thought last week, after getting some miles, that I was on the mend, but nope. Next week, I might have some progress!
It’s time for the Let’s Look….. for the month of February. Join me each month as I link up with Shay and Erika to talk about the little things going on in 2019. This month we are talking about our favorite books. I could talk books for days. I spent many summer days in my …
Today’s Monday Miles is about saying goodbye to the Rock’n’Blog Ambassador program for the Rock’n’Roll Marathon series. I have been a member of the team for the past 4 years and walking away (my decision) is extremely hard but changes are coming to the program and I’m not able to participate for the next year. …
10 photos on the 10th of every month. This is a photo challenge I can actually accomplish. It’s hard to believe that I once completed a 365 challenge before the age of picture phones. 2008 was just me and a Kodiak and then my first Canon. I learned 99% of what I know about photography …
Atlas picked my shoes out for me. He made a good choice. I got some running in this week, but it was slow and achy. Recovering from this flu is not fun at all. Monday: 2 miles Tuesday: 1.6 miles Thursday: 2.3 miles Saturday: 4 miles Slow and steady will get me to some great …
I have a longer list of favorites this week. I’m starting with coffee. Like I do most of my days. 1. Heritage House Coffee If you are local to Tuscaloosa and have not tried Heritage House, I’m not sure we can be friends. In addition to their amazing coffee creations, their bakery has some gluten-free …
Gluten Free pot roast is a favorite in my family and has been for a couple of years. The original recipe is called Mississippi Pot Roast and being from Mississippi, I gave it a try but had to make some changes. The original calls for a packet of au jus. I cannot find gluten …
I have been waiting on this item for many moons. This is the Erin Condren On the Go Folio and it’s glorious. In the planner community (yes it’s a thing. There are many of us.), there is a high demand for “traveler’s notebooks” or TNs. These are covers with elastic bindings that can hold individual …
Who needs a few ideas for Gluten Free Valentine’s Day Desserts? I am really enjoying these recipe round up posts! I’ve never made a post for Valentine’s day recipes and I didn’t realize I had a few to contribute. It makes me go back through old recipes, clean them up, edit them for SEO and …
Gluten free Oreo balls are one of my easiest seasonal desserts to make. These are great for Christmas and Valentine’s Day because they are dipped in rich melted chocolate and drizzled with white chocolate. All I have to do is find gluten free chocolate sandwich cookies similar to Oreos. Gluten-free baking can be a …
This will be short and sweet. No running this week. The flu last weekend knocked me down pretty hard and I spent my evenings after school on the couch, in the tub, or early to bed. This stuff is no joke.
This is the month in which Alabama gets to decide if crippling winter is coming or the arrival of way-too-early spring. In most cases, we get surprised by severe record-breaking cold snaps. Other years, we are wearing flip flops by Valentine’s Day. On those early spring years, it’s a little hard to experiment with winter …
January is off to a slow start, but the last week had some great new releases. Let’s jump right into them. The top of the list was Free by Kristen Ashley. I’ve said it many times that Kristen Ashley and J.D. Robb are my instant-downloads or book release day purchases. This book was no exception. …
I’ve been wanting to commit to a feature like this for a couple of years and this is the year to start. It’s basically a round up of the current state of affairs. I’m linking up with Shay and Sheaffer each last Wednesday. It’s a great way to check up with other bloggers and see …
