Random Musings Friday!

Happy Friday!! I’m linking up again with Shana at Fumbling Towards Normalcy! It’s been a decent week! Probably the best I’ve had in a while. I met up with an old friend on Saturday, my mother in law hung out with us on Sunday, and the rest of the week has sort of flown by….

Oh, How Pinteresting! I Love That!

Welcome to another Wednesday full of Pinterest pins, and things I am just loving right now. (Click on the images to steal the pin!) Don’t forget to link up with The Vintage Apple and This Kind of Love! These days always make me realize how many food pins I have. Thankfully this week, *most* of…

Making Up With My Pantry

I’ve been in a fight with my pantry since we moved into our house. It seems she thought she wasn’t going to have to function and just sit around, kick rocks, and occasionally house a coat and some laundry. Well, she was wrong. So, we got in a fight. She tossed a shelf and broke…

DIMY: The Planner

The problem with my perfectionism is that simple is never good enough, and procrastination runs deep. Back in June, I started making my own daily planners. Pinterest led the way and I started out simple. I printed out a stock calendar, Open Officed a daily worksheet and off I went. Then I discovered Erin Condren….

Saturday Shoppin’! (And a WELCOME surprise!)

I was smack dab in the middle of (finally) printing my planner, and realized I hadn’t posted for today! First of all, I have to thank Shana @ Fumbling Towards Normalcy. I’ve thanked her already, but I just *have* to brag about this. She’s having a pretty rough weekend, because her dad was hit by…

Food Fodder: Oh, How Pinteresting!

Well, Droid has returned! Except they forgot the SD card and the case, the SD card being the important point here. I was going to post my Healthy Hot Chocolate recipe today, but I can’t take pictures without the SD card! I mean, come. ON. I feel like I can’t have hot chocolate until I…

Monday Mosaic {101 in 1001}

You may have heard of this new trend floating around the blogosphere. It’s called the 1001 Day Project or 101 in 1001 or The 101 in 1001 Challenge, or The Longest List of Goals You’ve Ever Made in Your Life, or The Yay, My Life Now Has Purpose; I Need Coffee List or whatever. I’ve…
