Ever finished your shopping, headed to the register, and guessed what you’re about to spend? That’s me, every time. Honestly, before a group of my friends created a guessing game, I didn’t really know how much other people spent on...
Tacos are life. It’s the meal that keeps on giving if you can eat over a plate that has an open tortilla on it waiting to become... a new taco! Lebron James loves tacos and you should, too. Even...
Is it Tuesday today? Or maybe Friday? What month are we in? This past year has been so disorienting as we stayed home for days on end without any of our normal activities to create the rhythm to our...
I am not an early bird. In all honestly, I’m probably not a night owl either, but instead some form of permanently exhausted pigeon, as artist Gemma Correll would say. But, dang...I would give anything to be a morning...

The search suggestion flashed on the screen as I was navigating Pinterest. I hadn’t started to search for “how to be happy.” I really planned to type in “how to be semi-organized” but stopped when I...
The love I have for Aldi is really unmatched…at least in the grocery store setting. It almost rivals a Target or Trader Joe’s run for me, especially if I can go sans kids.
