Creativity is Not a Hobby; it's a Way of Life!
Winter is the perfect time of year to embrace hygge. After all, even if you absolutely adore winter, you’re still going to want to have those times where you’re all cozy and warm and snuggly buggly right? If you’re just starting to consider hygge in your life, remember, it’s more of an attitude than a to […]
The holiday season is one of abundance, boasting several different ways to indulge. From the delicious Christmas dinner, to all the treats and festivities, it is difficult to refrain from partaking, and why should you? After all, balance is key! And if you are sticking to an exercise routine and making sure to get your […]
Well? Has the stress of the season taken its toll on you yet? I saw a few people on social media today freaking out a little bit about the fact that Christmas is less than 2 weeks away and worrying that they wouldn’t get it all done. We’ve simplified. Simpler gift giving, decorating…simpler everything. Even […]

True confession time: I am not much of a soup fan. Oh, a scrumptious French onion soup, all cheesy and gooey, is a nice starter course now and then. If we’re having grilled cheese, I love to have a small bowl of cream of tomato soup with it. It’s simply ideal for dunking! But, I […]
Inspired by one of my favorite blogs Brocante Home (who was in turn inspired by a feature in Harper’s Bazaar written by Diana Vreeland), Why Don’t You is a week’s worth of ideas for adding a little something special to your life. Simple ideas for lovely days! Pick and choose what sparks your interest and fits into your schedule. […]
Wooohoooo! The polar vortex seems to have come to an end and temperatures are rising. Okay, so it’s just barely over zero but considering it was nearly -40 at one point in the past week, I’ll take it! In other news, my little Moonpie seems to have decided that he’s going to make some big […]
