Raise your hand if you could use a little meal planning help, inspiration, guidance or support.  I’ve totally been there. I have something that I hope some of you may be able to use. Maybe, this will even make your life easier, less stressful, and healthier. And on top of that…you might save money, too (in …

This year, my son decided he wanted a paintball party for his birthday. We’d never thrown a paintball party before, and he’d never actually gone paintballing, but we found a local place to host it (I’ll share that info below in case you’re in the Dallas area!) and invited a handful of friends. I made …

Last week, my family was hosted by Epic Waters Indoor Waterpark in Grand Prairie for a day of waterslides at the biggest indoor water park in Texas. Epic Waters has been been open for a year-and-a-half, but this was the first time I’d even heard about it. Who knew there was a giant indoor water …

  Welcome, my friends, to my new Favorite Thing to Eat. It’s called 21 Day Fix Roasted Red Bell Pepper Soup, and it’s a creamy, smoky bowl of deliciousness that is restaurant quality – but without the heavy cream or sodium.  It really is that good. Or at least, so says Charles, and he’s not …

When it comes to winter, Christmas decorations can often overtake everything else (and I am ok with that!). But sometimes maybe you want something beautiful that doesn’t just scream SANTA CLAUS, and that can be used for the rest of the winter season too.  I really love these elegant printable Winter Wonderland planner stickers because …

There is so much to do in Dallas. If you like to get out and about and see the city (and especially if you have kids, and especially if you like to save money), this is for you – you’ll love POGO pass! Also, Pogo Pass is now available in lots of other cities, too – …

I’m baaaack! Ok, I never really went anywhere, but it’s been awhile since I’ve brought you an overnight oats recipe (or any healthy recipe, for that matter), so what I really mean is, today I’m bringing you these Cherry Pistachio Overnight Oats. And y’all, they are something else! Because PISTACHIOS. Also, cherries. I love cherries …

When I was a kid, I know that I loved writing out my Christmas list. Recently, I found an old list that my sister and I made, and I could not stop laughing at the ridiculous and oh-so-specific things that I asked for. My five-year-old daughter is already on that train, enjoying filling up pages …

Back in 1997(ish), I was watching the Oprah Winfrey Show (what else, right?!) when she told the world to keep a gratitude journal. At the time, I had never heard of such a thing! But when she said it, I knew it was for me. I went to the book store and bought a gratitude …

OK, cookie makers…I’ve got another one for you! {Also, how did my healthy recipe blog turn into a cookie-lover blog?! Don’t worry, I’ll be back to my regularly scheduled “less sugar” posts shortly…but for now, cookies!} These peppermint balls are something I remember my mom making when I was growing up. I’ve made some printable …
