Closet Make-Over
What princess doesn’t want a closet make over, right?
Actually, our little princess needed a make over! For a girl who loves clothes and can still wear clothes from when she was 5, space is an issue. In an attempt to get creative and utilize her living area better, moved her into the old office and installed an Elfa closet system in [...]
Homemade Goodness in a Jar
I am so excited about this yummy homemade creamer. I have not been able to use anything but half and half in my coffee for about six month. Suddenly the store bought creamers tasted different. They had a real unnatural taste, and I just couldn’t enjoy it in my coffee anymore. I was so happy when I came across this recipe.

All In A Day’s Work
I love productivity!
Isn’t it funny that we creatures find so much joy & fulfillment in getting things done? Something about seeing those little check marks of completion on my lists just make me smile.
Some days I have to just be satisfied with getting dishes and laundry checked off my list. It is those rare occasions when you can [...]
Chicken Gyros
For a few days now, I have had a craving for gyros, so I went onto Pinterest and found a quick and easy recipe. The best part is that I had most of the ingredients already! Woo hoo!

The Nut House
This is a laugh out loud moment for Kip and I, one we had to remember because, again in hindsight it is really funny!!!
