It's the end of the day, the kids are finally asleep, and I'm craving something a little...indulgent. But you know me, I'm all about balance! We've been having a blast playing with the Ninja SLUSHi for parties, so you may have heard about that lately, but when it comes to my individual desserts, my heart […]

Ok, is anyone else already dreaming of trading snow boots for boat shoes? I just can't decide...they both have their appeal! The competitor in me (those Traitors episodes got me scheming irl!) decided to pit them against each other in two mood boards to see which would call to me more. Team Après Ski We […]
While I don't consider myself a perfectionist, I do like things neat—most of the time. It's important to me that my home is beautiful and lived in. I want it filled with laughter, joy, and life. If that means a few nicks and spills? That's fine with me. Even so, over the years of home […]
