I love, love doing these reading recap posts. I hope they aren’t *too* boring for you all, because I really want to keep doing them. I read some books that had been on my list for a good while this time around, and it felt really nice to be able to say I finally read them. Read more
Ah, it feels good to be back. I went back and forth between taking last week off or not, only posting on Monday and Wednesday, only Wednesday, etc, but I ended up deciding to just take all three days off. Sunday night arrived, and I had ZERO post inspiration, so I knew it was time for a break. Read more
I’m back! I took the week of posting new content here so I could spend some undistracted time with my family. I am back though and ready to post away! This is going to be a busy month full of adjustments for me, but I’m excited to have this constant source of creativity in my life. Read more
I’m back with another recipe post! I hope no one is getting worn out from my constant talk about cooking and baking, but it truly is something that sets my heart on fire this year. I just never thought I would be here, but it’s been the happiest surprise. Read more
This Christmas has been… weird to say the least. I think the reality of the pandemic has finally truly hit me in this past month. The other months have been a bummer for sure, but there are way more people in my personal life experiencing the virus and its symptoms right now, and I’m also realizing how many newlywed moments we have missed for the holidays alone.

I’ve had a crazy, crazy week. Honestly, I know it’s not fun for people to come to my blog as a fun, happy place and then read about stress and being overwhelmed, but honestly this wouldn’t be an authentic blog post if I came on and only recounted the good. Work has just been so, so busy all day, every single day. It’s nice that my entire team is feeling the same way, because if it was just me in this, I would be completely zonked. Read more
This beer chili is mouthwateringly delicious, and it’s definitely a classic in our house. The warm and nutty notes of the Yeehaw beer in this chili hit all the right chili points for me, and I think you (and your entire family) will like it too.
Yer a wizard, Harry!! I wasn’t planning on doing this gift guide, but I just couldn’t help it after seeing and knowing so many great gifts for the Harry Potter lovers in your life. Read more
I love doing these posts occasionally when I’ve noticed an influx of really great blog content, and this Christmas season has been full of great ones already. Plus, this is a small way for me to attempt at getting anyone and everyone to try reading blogs on a regular basis! I truly love reading blogs so much, and I think they’re underrated. Read more
I was thinking of a post for today while simultaneously picking up things around my house. These two activities were obviously very beneficial to do together because I realized there were so many stocking stuffer type items in my house I could share! Also, stockings are the only gifts we’re (Preston and I) giving each other this year, so I’m a little bit more inspired for this category! Read more
