I love to turn to my crockpot for help in the summer.

Here are some of our favorite slow cooker recipes: Crockpot BBQ … [Read more...]
Shadazzle Natural Multi-Purpose Cleaner Review
Sometimes a girl (even one who likes natural cleaners) needs more than a little vinegar. I was recently sent some Shadazzle to review. (A paid review, for the record.) Yes. I said Shadazzle.

Knowing that helps me keep going. As I'm pulling posts from the archives to share this summer, I'm enjoying reading some of the moments of discovery that have … [Read more...]
Random Summer Update #1 (2013)
It's possible you've noticed that I only posted twice this week. And the posts were a link post and a guest post. I haven't quit blogging. But I am consciously taking a step back for summer. I say "consciously" because it's actually an effort for me to NOT blog. My mind thinks in blog posts and I generally create cutesy titles for … [Read more...]
