Fall planting is upon us! I say that as if I’m a farmer and really doing something serious, but we city folk just plant some fall flowers. It’s a requirement in my neighborhood to have mums on the porch in the fall. Didn’t you know? haha! Have you ever heard of filling large pots with rocks or sand or something in the bottom? It’s so … Continue reading Flower Pot HacksRus
For as long as I can remember, I have always wondered things. When I was a little girl, I wondered if other people thought and saw the world as I did. A child doesn’t understand that you can’t see someone thinking. I would watch people carry on with life and wonder if there was anyone in their head like I was in mine. If they … Continue reading Call Me The Wonderer
Hello, my name is Launie and I hate spaghetti. Like really hate it. I am not exaggerating when I tell you that my husband (who, by the way, LOVES spaghetti!) only gets it maybe twice a year! I have tried different things to try to grow to like it. I tried chicken spaghetti, I tried using different sauces. Nothing really works. I just resigned to … Continue reading Spaghetti Meat Sauce

It’s tough changing to a new way of eating when you have spent your whole life eating a different way!

This morning I had my first cup of black coffee. Well, not completely black. It had some coconut milk in it, but if you have ever had plain, unsweetened coconut milk then you know my coffee was basically black! It has very little flavor and you would have to add a lot of it to make your coffee a creamy caramel color. Honestly, I probably … Continue reading My WHOLE Journey

So white, that my camera did not believe it … Continue reading National Cherry Blossom Festival, DC {A Photo Blog}
