“He Gets Me”

June 27, 2012 By Dana White | 4 Comments

The fact that my husband "gets" me has always been one of my favorite things about him.  And considering that my sense of humor sometimes produces blank stares and/or courtesy laughs when unleashed on the general public, that means a lot. Yesterday was our thirteenth wedding anniversary.  Every year, on (or around) our anniversary, we write in a … [Read more...]

Keeping the Dining Room Under Control

June 26, 2012 By Dana White | 9 Comments

Today the Room by Room girls and I are talking about the Dining Room. For me, it’s the VERY first thing you see when you walk through my front door.  Which is great when it’s clean. And not-so-great when it’s not. And without being EXTREMELY intentional . . . it doesn’t stay clean.  I mean, it’s a room that basically just contains one … [Read more...]

Surviving the Week

June 25, 2012 By Dana White | 1 Comment

VBS (Vacation Bible School) started today. So fun.  So exhausting. My goal is to survive this week.  To survive, I need focus.  So I stuck to the basics and checked off the in-my-head version of my daily checklist. After a short nap, I: Went back through the bathrooms and kids' rooms after they had brought me "ALL" their dirty laundry.  … [Read more...]

(Unbelievably Easy) Faux Alfredo Sauce Recipe

June 24, 2012 By Dana White | 13 Comments

Isn't "faux" . . . like . . . the best word ever?  It's a fancy way to say fake.  Whoever came up with that advertising idea (I think it might have been the cubic zirconium people . . . ) was a genius. Anyway, I've casually rambled this recipe before in a post but thought I'd give it a featured/pics-included post of its own. Ingredients: One … [Read more...]

Making Family Memories on the Water

June 23, 2012 By Dana White | 5 Comments

I've mentioned our pre-millenial vehicles before. Have I mentioned our boat?  Because it's almost pre-me. As in . . . our boat is a whole two years younger than I am.  (And I'm 38.) A boat (that boat, actually) is a huge part of my husband's memories with his dad.  He loves to fish, and there's never any question that his favorite fishing … [Read more...]

Thanks to Discount Cleaning Products for sponsoring this series! Well . . . Not sure how to write a progress report for this past week.

The Time Has Come (And Gone)

June 19, 2012 By Dana White | 22 Comments

Last week, circumstances aligned perfectly . . . and I found myself in the grocery store. Knowing exactly what I wanted to make for supper. And remembering exactly what I needed to make it. (No small thing 'round here.) We had picked up our first basket of produce from Bountiful Baskets, and I was determined to use all of the fruits and … [Read more...]
