The Sunday Scoop #13

June 10, 2018 No Comments

Happy Sunday friends! I’ve got a very important first order of business today: I have a *GIVEAWAY* happening on Instagram right now that goes until Tuesday so you should check it out and enter and tell your friends to enter too! Yay for giveaways!! Anywho (vote: are you a fan of this word or no?), It seems like it was just a few days ago that I wrote up a Sunday Scoop post (likely because I posted this on Tuesday last week, whoops!). Since it hasn’t been that long I don’t have a ton to share in terms of links […]

The Tuesday (aka Sunday) Scoop #12

June 5, 2018 No Comments

Holy cow sometimes life gets so busy and crazy. Hence why I’m here on a Tuesday sharing my usual Sunday Scoop. Between having visitors, cleaning for said visitors, getting sick with an unexpected spring cold (what the heck, aren’t colds only for wintertime?!) and then enjoying all the warm weather I can soak up the blog has been on the back burner. But I’ve been collecting some fun reads over the last few weeks that I had to pop in and share. Before I get to that though I just have to note that I went to the Taylor Swift […]

It’s Mother’s Day today, a day filled with mixed emotions for many. I celebrate it full of happiness and love for my mom, mother-in-law and grandmas who are the best moms in the world but I also celebrate it with emotions that are less happy and more like, “can we just get past this day?” for me and all the others that I know who are struggling to get to motherhood or have decided it’s not the path for them anymore. It can be tough, but over the years this day has become easier because I know that regardless of […]

The Sunday Scoop #10

May 6, 2018 No Comments

So I meant to bring you a Sunday Scoop last week, but it ended up being a quiet week around the blog this week purposefully. I was just having a take-a-break-from-writing kind of moment. You know the feeling, right? That sometimes a break from something you love brings even more creativity when you get back to it. Like absence makes the heart grow fonder, no? Speaking of growing…I’ve spent this weekend going to greenhouses and making some plans for our garden and landscaping. How do you not get overwhelmed by the choices?? I look at all the flowers and want […]

The Sunday Scoop #9 – NIAW Special Edition

April 22, 2018 No Comments

Hey friends! Today marks the official start of the 2018 National Infertility Awareness Week. It’s a week to raise awareness about the disease that affects 1 in 8 couples of childbearing age in order to shed stigmas and help increase knowledge so those who suffer feel supported and less alone. I’ve got lotsa content commin’ at ya later this week but for starters I wanted to put together my usual Sunday links post with a fertility twist. I’ve been gathering these links for awhile, so forgive me if they aren’t up-to-the-minute current, but they are still 100% worthy of sharing. […]

Hey friends! Happy Sunday! What are ya up to & what’s on your mind? Here are the things on my mind this weekend: 1) Aren’t these daffodils so pretty? 2) I’m missing the Beyonce show at Coachella, 3) New episodes of the final season of New Girl are airing now and I so happy and sad all at once, 4) Khloe Kardashian’s new baby and her baby daddy problems, 5) where is the sun and why is there snow in the forecast(??) and 6) I really need a vacation so I’ve been mentally planning that. Aside from what’s been in […]

Did this week drag for anyone else? It was one of those weeks were I thought Wednesday was Thursday- the worst! Maybe it’s the weather and the fact that it’s April and we’ve had snow twice this week. I try to stay positive but unrelenting cold weather is a special kind of torture. Thank god for the 10-day forecast (even though it’s never right) for giving me a glimpse of hope for next weekend. 60 degrees…maybe? I’ll take it! No returns Mother Nature! Speaking of Mother Nature, are flowers blooming in your neck of the woods? We’ve got daffodils in […]

Enjoy! First Things First Dogs in bunny ears. Nuff said.

Hi Friends! I hope you’re all having a good weekend! Mine’s been busy, but the good kind of busy. Especially because I got to go see my new niece-puppy!!!! Here name is Milly and she’s 6 months old and has paws that are still too big for her body and she has the softest ears and is just so darn cute! I’ll be sure to post a pic later. Speaking of pics, that one up there? It’s just a few of my finds from the Good Foods Expo here in Chicago yesterday. It’s “The Midwest’s Premier Showcase for Local and […]

Did everyone have a safe and happy St Patrick’s day yesterday? The city of Chicago is always bustling on St Pat’s weekend as residents here take the holiday pretty seriously. I’ve been-there-done-that with the parade and river dying so I stayed away this year and went to the Chicago Flower & Garden Show instead. Did you do anything festive? Now that the holiday is over we can focus on the most important note of the week, Tuesday is spring equinox and marks the official start of spring! I am just so excited. No more snow after that point, right Mother […]
