I had good intentions of blogging so much this month – and then this week threw me for a loop. I think I need a do-over of National Blog Posting Month. So let’s look at the good, the bad and the ugly when it comes to this week. Obviously, the leaves on campus are not […]

Menu Monday: Slow Cooker Vegetarian Chili Dip
I shared a recipe earlier this year (maybe last year?) for vegetarian chili dip but it needed some updating and newer photos. Keep reading to get the recipe (you’ll thank me later for something so good, easy and filling!) Sunday: Vegetarian Chili Dip. We wanted something somewhat easy since we were enjoying a relatively lazy […]
Weekend roundup….Halloween! #NaBloPoMo
In an effort to participate in National Blog Posting Month, I’m here with a weekend roundup. (I have recipes and updates to share and so much, but…the time change, the busy weekend and today’s weather just have me all types of sidetracked.) So. The boy was SUPER excited about Halloween yesterday. He knew we were […]
Thankful Thursday: 30 Days of Thanks {completed} #30DaysOfThanks
I haven’t had a ton of time to update the rest of my November #30DaysOfThanks! Shame on me. November 25 – Music. I’m so thankful for music and the freedom to listen to whatever my heart desires (I guess, within reason, depending on who is in the car with me.) November 26 – My home. […]
What I learned from #NaBloPoMo
I did it, y’all. I completed National Blog Posting Month. All 30 days. I actually posted 42 times in November, if you can wrap your head around that fact too. It was intense, fun, exhausting, exhilarating. I learned a lot in the last month! 1. Planning is key. I started the month strong. I wrote […]
Thankful for the gift of gab #30DaysOfThanks #NaBloPoMo
So much to be thankful for…and I haven’t even hit things like my bed and new duvet cover that makes me smile when I see it every day. Day 21 – Restaurants and delivery places near our house. On this particular day, I left work at 5:00, was able to pick up our son at […]
Stream of Consciousness – week 21 #SOCSaturday #blogging #freewriting #NaBloPoMo
I love fall. I love the sunshiney days, the trees showing their colors, the cooler weather and the overall feeling of excitement with the changing of the seasons. I do not, however, love the falling leaves. The nighttime that sets in at 5:30 p.m. or the snow on November 1, when we should be experiencing […]
Thankful for patience (sometimes) and insurance #30DaysOfThanks #NaBloPoMo
We’re almost through the month! I’m still keeping track of things I’m thankful for! All of this deserves exclamation points!! Day 17 – Patience. I have a 3-year-old and he is t-r-y-i-n-g. He pushes every button he can and even his dentist talked about how independent and strong-willed he is. I’m not always the most […]
Old School Blogging: 5 Random Things About Me #OSBlog #NaBloPoMo
I’m joining Elaine for Old School Blogging again. This month’s topic is 5 random things about me! 1. I worked at Yankee Candle seasonally (the Christmas season) twice. And one of those seasons extended for several months afterward, since I got engaged and needed some extra money for our wedding. I also used the discount […]
Days of Thanks: Christmas cards and moms #30DaysOfThanks #NaBloPoMo
I’m traveling at the moment, so blogging time has been scarce. (Where is my driver, and why don’t I have unlimited wifi from my car if I do have a driver?) All joking aside, I do have a few things to be thankful for. Day 10 – My mom. Moms in general. My mom was […]
