Photo by STIL on Unsplash Hey! Happy Monday. Sorry I fell off the map at the end of my blogmas journey but when you make a decision to an entirely DIY Christmas on Thanksgiving you tend to spend a lot of time you hadn't planned on spending behind the sewing machine the week leading up… Continue reading Goals and Things for 2021

The Dignity and Sanctity of the Home
Merriam-Webster defines "home" as " one's place of residence." Alternatively home can be defined as "the social unit formed by a family living together." While both of these definitions are very generic and stale they get the basic point across. Home is a dwelling place where a family unit (however that may be defined) lives… Continue reading The Dignity and Sanctity of the Home
Make it Monday: Ketchup Edition
No matter how you like your ketchup to taste, this recipe is one you will have to try. It's cheaper, healthier, quicker, and probably will save you a ton of stress from going to deal with life at the grocery store!
Looking Forward and Planning Ahead
I think we can all agree that 2020 hasn't been the most splendid year that we have all experienced.

However, for school this year we have fully implemented a 4… Continue reading My Current Kitchen Hacks
Creating My Command Center
Photo Credit: Unsplash.com Let me tell you a story. Once upon a time there was this girl. She prided herself on being able to remember almost anything she was shown or told to remember. Her mom often would look at her and say things like "Remember this number." or "Hey remember (insert thing here)" and… Continue reading Creating My Command Center
Creating a Cleaning Schedule that Works

You can spend hours cleaning a particular room of your house and then just a few short days (or minutes in my case in a home with three young children) it just has to be done all over again. And then, while you… Continue reading Creating a Cleaning Schedule that Works
