I woke up at 1 a.m. last night and started to panic about everything that I have on my plate (the middle of the night will do that to you every time!) but I reframed my anxiety to focus on feeling gratitude for the [...]

Finally Kipping
July 26, 2012 { 30 comments }Thanks for all of the input on my hair color and recipe blog dilemma. The consensus was to go for the ombre trend (eek!!!) and to combine PBR and Bakin’ and Eggs. So, I have some work to do! I’m not sure how long it will take for me to figure out how to get [...]
