Maybe My Slob-Brain Is Changing?

June 16, 2011 By Dana White | 8 Comments

  I love dishes. Specifically, blue dishes. Solid blue, blue and white, blue accented with some other color, some other color accented with blue. Love 'em.

10 Ways to Combat Messiness When You Have Little-Bitties – A Guest Post

June 15, 2011 By Dana White | 7 Comments

I'm off having fun with my family this week, so I'm welcoming Jessie from Vanderbilt Wife today. (Note: Jessie is no longer blogging at Vanderbilt Wife.) Hi, I'm Jessie. And I am a slob.

How We Manage To Pay Cash on Vacation

June 9, 2011 By Dana White | 20 Comments

We're heading out on our family vacation soon, so I thought I'd share some tips I've found that work well for this scatter-brained-budget-what-budget-we're-on-vacation! mama. I've mentioned before (fine, many times) that we're Dave Ramsey fans.  We totally see the value of paying cash, especially when we're combining a finite budget with a mood … [Read more...]

What Flat Surfaces are Really For

June 8, 2011 By Dana White | 13 Comments

Flat surfaces look so pretty in furniture   stores. Accent tables. Bookshelves. Desks. I see them, and only see the positive possibilities. I see beautifully arranged photos.  I see candles and tastefully placed sentimental items. But I forget one feature that sabotages these visions as soon as I bring the item into my … [Read more...]

My Daily Kitchen Checklist for the Kids – Printable

June 7, 2011 By Dana White | 34 Comments

I’m scared to write this post. A clean kitchen . . . is everything.

Not that I always do. But the thought of involving my kids in the process by using a … [Read more...]

I've moved! It's exciting, and I can't wait to have people see my new place, but just like with any real move, things are a little crazy around here. I am trying to get things into place, but it may take a little time. Please bear with me as I work on that. My main concern right now is that there isn't a "newer post" button at the … [Read more...]

Chicken and Black Bean Burritos – Picnic Recipe

June 6, 2011 By Dana White | 8 Comments

Baseball season is almost over! As crazy as that time is, we're sad.  When your kids love something as much as our boys love baseball, you can't help but grieve a little that another year of this phase of life has ended. I said at the beginning of the season that I was going to do a picnic series, using this blog as motivation to be creative … [Read more...]
