Stuff I Love
I am a pretty enthusiastic thrift shopper – I like the thrill of the hunt, the uncertainty, and reusing an item with plenty of wear left. All winter long I looked for toddler snow boots and couldn’t find a single thing and now that it’s summer, they’re everywhere! One of my favorite tips is to […]
There are three things that I want everyone to know about, not because they are paying me or giving me free stuff (because they’re not), but because I have searched long and hard for these treasures. THE WORKS Our water is really hard and so our toilets were really gross. I went to Walmart looking […]

This dessert is the best. It’s one of those that I just can’t control myself with. Forget intuitive eating, and meet Scotcheroos. I grew up eating Scotcheroos, a family favorite in desserts. I think I’ve mentioned before how my family is really into dessert and we have to have it at least once every day. […]

One such cool and new thing is Jott.com where you can call a phone number and dictate a message to yourself or anyone in your contact list. Basically, you create a Jott account using your phone number. You […]
