From the day I started this blog, I’ve always desired for it to be real, authentic. And while I have never said anything on these pages that isn’t true, there’s a part of myself that I’ve been too afraid to open up to the big wide internet world. But what is our life, if not…
Happy October! I know this isn’t my first post in October, but it’s what I’m loving now for October and one of the things I am simply loving is this month! It really actually feels like Fall here in Abilene. So lovely! Now if only the leaves would just change. Congratulations to Debra, winner of…
I just love Fall. Don’t you just want to be in this photo? Credit goes to Christine, my best friend of (almost) 27 years! There have been jokes that it’s a ploy to convince me to move to Colorado Springs. Well, if so, it’s working! A year from now I might really be getting to…
GIVEAWAY ALERT: Scroll down for more details! Well, by popular demand, I have a chicken curry recipe for you! Though the Sweet Potato Shepherd’s Pie was a close second, so you’ll be seeing that one, too! So I’m a huge fan of Thai curries and I’m a little picky when it comes to it. I’ve…
His face was covered in dirt, picked up from an asphalt blacktop scattered with children.

So if I asked for a show of hands the people who just LOVE tuna noodle casserole, you and I both know the response would be far from overwhelming. There’s just something weird about egg noodles, mayo and peas. I don’t know. And let me tell you as a kid, I would never have touched…
I apologize if you now have Braveheart scenes and speeches running through your head. Actually, I take that back. I’m not sorry. There’s nothing wrong with a little Braveheart in your heart! Before I go any further, congratulations to Kimberly, winner of the Moisturizing Cream! Check your inbox for instructions on how to get your…
I think I’m in love. With a few things really. These meatballs. And this Orange Coconut Omelet. Let me tell you about this omelet. It’s like a crepe, fluffy and light. And it has been my favorite addition to my life during Whole30. Not that I wouldn’t have eaten it before, but I did all…
Cheers, y’all! Something I’ve always enjoyed as I follow other bloggers has been “favorite” posts — the blogger shares all her (or his) favorite things lately. I have found some great products that way (including some listed here)! So here’s what I’m loving now! Topo Chico (pictured above) I was introduced to Topo Chico in…
From the time I moved to Abilene, EVERYONE has told me I need to visit Austin! And two of my favorite people live there, so as soon as I arrived back in Texas I was anxious to get down there. Scott is one of my best friends from Biola! He and his beautiful wife, Elise,…
