Weekend Adventures with Catboy
November 1, 2020 { 3 comments }I hope that the first day of November and the time change are treating you well. I saw a funny meme online last week that said something to the effect of “the last thing we need is an extra hour of 2020.” Hopefully most of us spent that extra hour sleeping! :) It’s been a [...]

All The Fall Things
October 24, 2020 { 4 comments }Happy Saturday. My morning has included sleeping in, two cups of coffee, the farmers market and brunch. A very solid start to a beautiful fall day. The scone that you see here is a cheddar rosemary that I got at the farmers market and it’s safe to say that it was the star of the [...]

Friday Favorites: Fall Activities + Den Refresh
November 1, 2019 { 4 comments }Happy Friday friends. I hope you had a great Halloween! Sadly, we didn’t get to participate in any neighborhood Halloween festivities because we had a 5p flight to Florida but we ended up not missing much. My neighbor friends told me it stormed from 5:30-7:30p so the normal Halloween fun didn’t really happen. It was [...]

October 31, 2016 { 7 comments }I’m handing out candy to trick or treaters while I write this post and I have to say that hearing all the kids squeal, “DOGGGGGIEEEESSS!” when they walk up to our house is pretty much the cutest thing ever. All three of them are standing at the glass door watching all the Halloween fun. This [...]

Back On The Grid
October 30, 2011 { 25 comments }Well…I pretty much fell off the face of the blog planet this weekend. I kind of needed a break from it. Actually, I kind of needed a break from busy life in general. Brandon was gone on a guy’s trip from Wednesday-Sunday so I took the opportunity to do the single girl thing. I slept. [...]
