Confessions of things I have done recently: I found weevils in my flour, but didn’t throw it out until after I used it to make waffles for my kids. York: “What are these little black specks in my waffles?” Me: “Oh, just some burnt stuff that was stuck to the waffle […]
As a mother of six it’s one of my great fears that at least one of my children will end up as a drug addict. We already have more than one extended family member in recovery and it’s really a path I don’t want to go down. So I’m always super excited for the most […]
Have you been hearing about cleaning your face with oil yet? If not, you will soon. The Oil Cleansing Method is all the rage. If you’re new to the concept of cleaning your skin with oil this will sound like the most ludicrous, bizarre notion EVER. Because who puts oil on her face? Who??? Lots […]
As you probably know by know, we’re Mormon. And one of the rites of passage for Mormons is going on a mission when young adults turn 18 or 19 years old (it’s strongly encouraged for boys–being the fools that they are–but optional for girls). Part of the reason is to tell people about Jesus and all […]
This is my sweet baby girl Adelaide. She is five today. For the first year of her life she rarely smiled. She also rarely frowned (except in this picture). She was just a placid, content little baby taking everything in and thinking long and hard. Sometime around a year and a half old a spunky […]
Have you ever gotten sucked into a world that a few hours earlier you didn’t even know existed? That was me, today. Somehow I ran across a picture of an adorable dirndl dress on Pinterest. I knew that ladies in Austria and southern Germany still wear them occasionally but I had no idea that they […]

Have you seen this desk? It’s pretty much the coolest thing around and I want one really badly. You have no idea how many crafting supplies I have stashed in various parts of my house. Wouldn’t it be nice to put them all in one place? Well, there is a way for me to get […]

Hmmm, Hobby Week was a little sparse. Maybe I should make this Hobby Fortnight. One of my hobbies is not putting pictures in my blog. It takes such a loooong time (say this in a whiny voice). It’s such haaaaard work. I tend to really procrastinate when I’m working on a post that is picture-heavy. […]
