I mentioned in last Friday's post that while I normally like to plan ahead with my blog, that just didn't happen this past week. I told myself that over the weekend I would get caught up, but that didn't work out either. Normally this is something that would frustrate me; being behind, not sticking to … Continue reading Motivational Monday: Quality Time
I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday week and enjoyed some time with friends and family. While we would normally go home to be with our families this weekend we spent this year at home just the two of us and celebrated with a big brunch on Sunday (more on that next week). Having Tuesday … Continue reading Living Lately No. 10
I don't know about you, but I have very little desire to cook during the peak heat of summer. I genuinely enjoy cooking most of the time but on those hot an humid days it's a real struggle. I try to incorporate as many easy and refreshing meals into our weekly menu as I can. … Continue reading Favorite Summer Recipes

To be honest it wasn't even officially Summer yet before I was thinking of all things fall. But I still plan to enjoy the days of summer that … Continue reading July Goals

The sticky summer heat of the Midwest is upon us and I am already anxious for fall. Dressing for the hot Nebraska summers can be difficult while trying to look nice without being melting.

It is officially summer and I decided to take on a major challenge until the official start of fall. A summer without shopping. I have never really been one who enjoys actually shopping.
