The countdown is on to our favorite Thursday of the year where we stuff ourselves with turkey and carbs then nap while watching football and scouring the pre-Black Friday sales. I look forward to the sides more than the turkey and desserts. When you’re searching Pinterest for recipes, there are so many to choose from,…
Do you shop for stocking stuffers early or are they a last-minute buy? For me, they are usually a last-minute buy and it’s necessities they need that I put off on buying. Come on, if you’re a mom can you really tell me you’ve never told the kids to use their toothpaste sparingly since it’s…
The temperatures have started dropping which means sweater weather is here. Now, I’m not sure about you, but most of my sweaters need to be cuffed, or I end up pulling the sleeves up. If you didn’t know, there’s a trick to cuffing your sleeves so that they don’t look like you’re wearing a big…
Last year, I started my search for a pair of white or cream ankle boots and didn’t come up with much luck. Thank goodness this year during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Marc Fisher came out with a pair that I liked so much I bought them in two colors. I know that cream ankle boots…
So many women get stumped when it comes time to Christmas shop for their husband or man in their life. Knock on wood, I’ve always been able to come up with a few gift ideas for men. Well, at least to cover Andrew and my dad for me. The guys in my life aren’t fancy,…
Ok, who do you think is harder to shop for? Teen girls or teen boys? I actually think teen girls can be a lot pickier! There may seem to be more items out there to choose from when shopping, but whether or not they will like what is wrapped under the Christmas tree can be…
Once the weather starts cooling down and it starts getting dark earlier, that’s when I know it is soup season. I think it’s all in my head that I can’t eat soup when it’s 80 degrees in July, but that’s just me. Once the weather changed here in southwest Pennsylvania, I decided it was time…
Christmas is sneaking right upon us this year. I’m sure if you’ve watched the news at all lately, you’ve heard about the shipping delays which means you may want to start your Christmas shopping a little earlier this year. I’ve been pretty bad the past few years about getting a late start on my shopping,…
We are getting closer to the holidays where it’s time to be sure we have a few good recipes on hand for gatherings. I’m not one who enjoys cooking dinner, but when it comes to supplying a dish or cocktail for a party, I’m all in! I first started making this poinsettia cocktail recipe a…
The time has come to bust out the pumpkins so you can transform your mantle for fall. This year I decided to change up a lot of my fall decor inside to more whites and blues. Due to our house being log we have a lot of orange and dark tones as it is. I…
The time of year has come where it’s a little chilly in the mornings and evenings, however it’s rather warm during the day. Is it that way where you are, or is that just crazy Pennsylvania weather? Not too often will you find me in a jacket unless I’m going to be outside for a…
Riding boots were a closet staple a few years ago. Even though they aren’t at the forefront of the 2021 fall fashion guide you don’t have to leave them locked up in the back of the closet. Frye riding boots are investment boots and will last for years. I bought my first pair about eight…
