This is a guest post from my husband. All of his recipes begin with "Best Ever", and they are, but I might be a little biased. Growing up I always made deviled eggs. Even if we only had two hard boiled eggs lying around I'd peel them up, take out the yolks, add mayonnaise, mustard,… Continue reading Best Ever Sriracha Deviled Eggs

Home Organization Project 29
For this week's home organization project, we must begin by remembering how awful my sewing studio looked. Yes, it was a complete mess. Then, it got worse! Are you wondering how that is even possible? Me, too! Here's where I started....I rearranged shelves and moved furniture around - first. Then, I looked up at the… Continue reading Home Organization Project 29
Chia, Coconut, Pumpkin Seed Granola
I've been waiting for the hot summer weather to cool a bit so I can turn on the oven and do some baking. My kitchen gets hot when the oven is on and during the summer it's too warm. This recipe is easy to double - and I always do. If I'm going through the… Continue reading Chia, Coconut, Pumpkin Seed Granola
Home Organization Project 28
Do you ever have a week where all of your best laid plans get hijacked? That was my week. All week, I've been trying to get down to my sewing studio to get it organized but it never happened. Here's what happened instead: My daughter got her wisdom teeth pulled on Monday. Brad and I… Continue reading Home Organization Project 28
Smoothie Tuesday, Smoothie Thursday and Sometimes Saturday
It's not always easy getting kids to eat a balanced diet but I have an insurance policy: smoothies for breakfast. Thanks to Earthbound Farm for helping me share this post with you. Smoothies for breakfast have been our routine for years - but only on Tuesdays, Thursdays and sometimes Saturdays. Tuesdays and Thursdays are my… Continue reading Smoothie Tuesday, Smoothie Thursday and Sometimes Saturday
Make Your Own Air Freshener
What ingredients are in your air freshener? Not sure? I wasn't either. If you bought it at the grocery store or even a health food store, chances are you've just bought a lot of chemicals. But, before you can say, "Holy Smelly Bathroom, Batman!" you can make your own air freshener! And, you'll know exactly… Continue reading Make Your Own Air Freshener
Home Organization Project 27
Warning: these photographs are offensive - to me! If you want to see the opposite of home organization, keep reading. Anyone who thinks my home looks perfect all the time, grab a drink and settle in for a view of my sewing studio. It's in our basement (1914 Craftsman bungalow) and allows me to keep… Continue reading Home Organization Project 27
Summer Travels
We usually travel during the summer - it's our big budget splurge - and after a dozen home exchanges in 10-years, our family has traveled to several countries and states. But, with two teenagers, we are not taking a family summer vacation this year. A friend of mine told me recently there's no such thing… Continue reading Summer Travels
Home Organization Project 26
We're half-way through our year-long crazy, hair-brained idea of mine to either reduce the amount of 'stuff' and clutter in our house or move. The "52 weeks of home organization projects" has definitely been interesting and has people talking. The burning question most everyone asks is: "Are you really, actually, cleaning out the - fill… Continue reading Home Organization Project 26
Spend Less and Enjoy More
After one of our meetings to review our household spending over the previous months, Brad and I always end the discussion with this burning question, "How can we reduce our spending, but still have fun?" It's good that we're on the same page about our spending - mostly. But we both agree that we want… Continue reading Spend Less and Enjoy More
