So I don't know if you all remember my master bathroom debacle. I couldn't decide what color to paint this poor room. It's the last room to be painted in our upstairs, and to make matters worse I wanted it to flow from our bedroom so the color had to work with some existing colors as well. No small task. Let's add in some...

We now return to your regularly scheduled programming. Yeah...a few days late...I'm wondering something. Is there a dish that everyone has that evades them, taunts them as they fail at it again and again? I feel like this should be the case because it's true with me. Last week I mentioned how much I love filled-dough...

Yesterday was the first day back at the gym and running in almost two weeks.Oh how I've missed the gym.Today was zumba and I think I might have died a little bit, but it felt good. I'm deciding whether or not to go to the gym tomorrow, but I probably will.I need to get back into my routine, and I really need the me time....

Hey guys!So I told you earlier today that I was going to be sharing something.And here I am to share! Here's a new wreath and my Valentine's Day mantle. I decided to go with the KISS method for my mantle. Keep It Simple Stupid.All of these flowers and props are things I had, but I love all the reds and pinks. Especially...

Well life here is slowly returning to normal. Harrison was discharged from the hospital the day that the hubs went in, which made it interesting for me. Running back and forth between pediatrics and surgery at least gave me my exercise for the day.On Monday we got a clean bill of health for H. His lungs sound really good...

Ah, Pinterest, what would we do without it? Well, I wouldn't be neck deep in recipes to try...just chest deep. I've blogged before about the amazing, to-die-for broccolli recipe that I got from there. Well, there's another site that has found me fun new recipes: StumbleUpon. This place is not as fun as Pinterest, but...

Over the past several days - I have heard on more than one occasion that what doesn't kill us makes us stronger.And I wholeheartedly believe this as well, but this also prompted a facebook status from me that if that which doesn't kill us makes us stronger then by the end of this week I'm going to be stronger than freaking...

Hey guys!How was everyone's long weekend?I'm glad that school is back in session, but I'm not looking forward to this week.Why, you ask?  Well for starters - Harrison has pneumonia, again. This time its been accompanied by a swollen airway. He's been given steroids to help with that but his breathing is still off....

I don't mean to brag or anything, but I'm pretty impressive in the kitchen. :-) Besides the fact that I made fabulous NY strip steaks without any kind of help besides a temperature guide, I made a new food without any help at all. How many of you all out there have ever had quinoa? Ever made it? Yeah, me neither...cooked...
