Hello, all! Dana here. If you know me at all, you know I have a very curious mind. You may also know that I often will venture out on my own to discover my own answers. What's that you say? The answers for why or how to do pretty much anything probably already exists on that amazing place...

Dana here. Lemme cut right to the chase.
Remy's Wine Bar in St. Louis is amazing
You should totally go there if you're ever in the neighborhood
The Bronzed Mahi is magical
I need it in my life as often as I please
I have issues with being dependent on other people. I think that's part of the reason why...

Hi guys!
I'm reviewing a super flirty and girly tank today, and I'm super excited to share it, because for once I have semi-proper pictures!
I got the hubs to take the pictures of me. How about those apples?
So the shirt is a simplicity number that is super versatile and fun. I can't tell you how quick and easy...

Spring Break was amazing and terrible at the same time.
When the kids are home my schedule gets completely whacked, but I love having them home - mostly.
I don't love the arguments.
I also feel really bad that my Big Guy had a rough week, but I'm so proud of him. He started running with me again,...

I'm totally slacking today. I haven't gotten any of my projects done, or blog posts written like I had been doing. Spring Break is really messing with me, but luckily there's always something I can pull from the archives.
My sister, Dana, shared these two great greek yogurt recipes years ago on the old blog, and today...

Hey all! I'm reviewing another exercise pattern by McCall's today.
This one is a jacket, and I am in love with it.
The pattern is fairly straightforward, until you get to the back of the jacket. The back is what sold me on this pattern.
Look at those ruffles! Look at the lace! Just look. What's not to love?
I ended...

This week was a very exciting week.
I got to break in my new shoes!
I'm a dork. I know it, but I can't help it. I get excited about new stuff.
The overall week wasn't great, I let crappy weather keep me inside. At church though, the pastor said something that spoke to me. He equated faith with not quitting. It made...

I put off making this pattern for a few reasons.
- Exercise clothes are scary. - They have a tough job. - Knits can be a pain in the rear.
I finally put on my big girl pants and knocked out the shirt. The shirt was overly worrisome because I like my tops to be a little looser.
I did discover...

I'm back with another version of my overnight oats. I decided on this combination, as I was making the oats.
What I love about this recipe is that the base is always going to be the same. It also helps that the base recipe is 1:1:1. 1/3 of everything.
You really can't get simpler than that.
So here's how I started...

Or Ilvermorny for that matter. ;p Bonus points if you've been keeping up with your HP lore and know what that is. So what's one of the most famous edibles to come out of the Harry Potter universe?
Anyone?
Correct! Butterbeer!
10 points to Hufflepuff! Let's be honest; you know the Hufflepuffs...

Happy Race Season!
Saturday was the first race of 2016, and it was amazing! Rock 'N Roll DC is definitely a fun race! I still can't stop gushing about it. It's been 2 days.
So let me get to the clean and concise bit, and then we'll jump into the meat of the post.
The short of it is I will absolutely be doing this...

Last week was a wonderful week. I didn't get all my workouts in, but the ones I did were awesome. The week also ended with me running the Rock 'N Roll DC half. It was also amazing, but that's tomorrow's post. So without too much ado, here's the reca...

So during our respective 10k's on Sunday, Dana and I were talking about weird things that happen during or after our workouts, and one of the things we talked about was a chemically smell in our noses after a workou...

I'm taking one from the archives today. This little ditty was published exactly 3 years ago today. Dana is sharing a quick egg muffin and a new use for her blender.
I may have to show the hubs this post, as we've been talking about egg muffins a lot lately....

So a few weeks ago, we updated Small Fry's room {HERE}, and he decided that he wanted a Rock 'N Roll themed room.
Awesome! I can totally work with this. So after getting the bones of his room together, it's was time to start thinking art...

Hello all!
I totally forgot to do the monthly recap last week, but I guess I can be forgiven, because Monday was technically the last day of February.
I wish there were more stickers in place on my training calendar, but it is what it is. I am the only one who can change how that training calendar looks....

I'm sharing another pillow post today, and it's one of my favorite pillows. I still use this pillow on my bed almost 6 years later, and it still looks good as new.

Welcome everyone!
You know what's funny? Rituals. Rituals are sometimes funny.
Example - I'm running 12 miles on Sunday, and I've run 12 miles before. I've run further than that, yet, because this is the first time I've run 12 miles this year, I'm a bit of a head case.
I don't know why. It's really quite stupid....

Hello, my name is Dana, and I am a Disney kid. I unabashedly love Disney, and I don't care who knows it! One of my many favorites is The Princess and the Frog. Besides all the great characters and highly quotable lines--I am Naveen, Prince of Maldonia, and she is Tiana, the waitress...do not kiss her!--I...
