I haven’t done a “day in the life” post since last June…well, I tried back in April but that day kept going so wrong that I quit documenting it ;). So, I decided on Monday (our first Monday of summer)…
Margarita Floats
Well, I mean to tell ya…this is just the best little idea ever. I saw in Good Houekeeping how they were taking cocktails and turning them into floats by adding a scoop of ice cream or sherbet. So, I went…
Ashby is THREE!
Today, our little Ashby London turns three years old! I’m not going to lie, this birthday is a little emotional for me. You know…with adoption (and parenting in general), you just don’t know what will affect you and what won’t….
Cajun Shrimp Pasta
My kids are shrimp obsessed. And my kids are noodle obsessed. So when I make noodles and shrimp together in one meal, they are super pumped! This little supper can be on your table in minutes. Really and truly, what…
Kindergarten
Well, our sweet girl just wrapped up her first year of school…and it was a HUGE success! Back at the end of August, I blogged about her first day here and honestly, I had no clue what to expect. When…
Meal Planning Monday #88
This week, I decided to have a theme for each day. Meatless Monday, Taco Tuesday, Waffle Wednesday, Turkey Thursday and Fry Friday. Listen…if we’re going to meal plan on a Monday, we might as well make it fun, right? …
Bar #90: Dark Chocolate Salted Blondies
I mean…you add sea salt to chocolate and the whole thing is instantly elevated. Sea salt just makes chocolate better, right? I made a blondie and topped it with dark chocolate frosting with a pinch of salt…and it was divine….
Dinner Tonight: Peanut Pasta
Some of you are scared right now…and some of you are excited. I love the combination of soy sauce and peanut butter wrapped around chicken and pasta. It’s so comforting and so delish without being too heavy. The perfect pasta…
Friday Favorites!
Hey…guess what I’m doing right this minute? I’M SLEEPING IN! Woohoo! Today is our first official day of summer and this mama decided to sleep in. I figured it was good for me not to be awake at 4:20 AM…
Sweet Basil and Onion Burger
This is Andrew’s go-to burger. We’re big fans of basil and onion (especially now that we have a little garden!), so when we’re doing basic burgers, this is it. We add fresh basil to the ground beef, top it with…
Post Adoption: Month 5
Five months ago today, we met this sweet little girl. I really feel like it was a lot longer than five months ago…I honestly feel like she’s been a part of our lives forever. Sweet little Ashby was just the…
Plum Berry Galette
Y’all…I should have recorded Ashby eating this. That girl was “mmmmmmming” like nobody’s business! She was swooning over the flavors and I was swooning over the simplicity. Let’s start from the beginning…sometimes, you just need a quick dessert. People stop…
