Beauty Beware!
Let’s be honest…women are hoarders! Maybe not in totality, but when it comes to beauty products, yes, yes we are. We want them all and we will never throw away something we love! But did you know that beauty products expire? Yes, I know…heartbreaking! They have recently (in the past couple years) started putting the suggested use dates on make-up. You may see a little … Continue reading Beauty Beware!
Today, The Music Speaks
Playlist time! Yay! It’s been awhile, I know! I used to be so good at getting these out! Lately I have been listening to a lot of classic rock (for the last year), so I haven’t been on the new music bandwagon as much as I used to.

Cheesy Tuna Noodles
Ok confession: not everything I cook is blog-worthy. That’s a term I use when I make a dish…I ask J, “Is this blog-worthy?” And he gives me is noncommittal shrug, and tells me it’s “ok”. For the record, on this recipe he told me “no”! But I’m posting it anyway because I want you to see that I cook like a normal person. One who … Continue reading Cheesy Tuna Noodles

Discover: Arlington National Cementary, DC
Welcome to Arlington! This has been on our “must see” list since we moved here! We just have never ventured out to see it. But with the Wreaths Across America being laid, I thought this was the perfect time to go!

Sweet Potato Pie Cupcakes
Just in time for Thanksgiving, I have this amazing recipe for you! I think sweet potatoes must be a Southern thing. We never had sweet potato pie growing up, and rarely did I ever see candied yams on Thanksgiving! It’s not something I grew up with, so it’s not something I eat much of. I have slowly been acquiring a taste for sweet potato laden … Continue reading Sweet Potato Pie Cupcakes
