WHY, WHY, WHY have I waited so long to get the Instant Pot? It's become an obsession and every meal I make from not until forever will be made in it. Donating my slow cooker and moving forward with the Instant Pot because it does everything. You can sauté your veggies, brown your meat, pressure cook chicken in like 10 minutes and shred it apart like it's been slow-cooking all day, you can slow cook, etc... Here is why I REALLY appreciate it though. If I'm on top of my game and I want ...

Jumby Bay Recap!
Oh Jumby, where do I begin… what an incredible place. The island, accommodations, hospitable staff and overall good vibes far exceeded my expectations and leave me itching to get back. We’ve talked about the good times at Jumby Bay every day since leaving, especially Brian + Grace, they absolutely loved it! The flight was a breeze from New York, only three and a half hours into V.C. Bird International Airport (ANU). Upon arrival at the airport, a Jumby Bay guide met us and escorted us through ...
Decorating our Foyer
I am literally the worst decorator on the planet. I definitely know what I like, and I love to style spaces, but I put it off like no one's business, especially when it's my own and there are no deadlines. Our foyer has looked like the pits since we moved in and finally over the weekend I had a little time and said, ya know what??? I feel like decorating today. So I shopped from around our house and bought a couple new things and I'm starting to really like the way it's coming together! It all ...

Side Porch Refresh
Ahh summer, you're almost here!! I'm excited to be working on our outdoor space this year, it all started with painting our house WHITE! It was a battle with Big Brian because he liked the yellow "just fine" but I eventually won him over and it made such a big difference that even he admits to liking it. I wanted to dress our front porch with pretty flowers and greenery and went to Pottery Barn to scoop up these galvanized containers with The Key. The Key is a new loyalty program where you can ...
California Recap
Guys. California. I've been a couple times but this time just really pulled at my heart. It's the first time we went as a family and I love EVERYTHING about it. It just feels like me, like us. The sun, the palm trees, the laid back beach loving vibe, the WEATHER, the people, the landscape, the restaurants, the streets...I just want a little abode by the beach, a beach cruiser for each of us, I want to learn how to surf, and spend time there. This probably sounds crazy but it just feels so ...
