As I wrote last post, my mission this month is to get on some cleaning and that includes cleaning out our crazy office/craft room so that I actually want to use it and it doesn’t take an hour to hunt down supplies or not lose my mind with the stuff everywhere… Continue reading

Cooking #9: Chili Adventures
Those of you that read my last cooking post about making homemade tomato sauce know that we recently got an astounding amount of food from Produce on Wheels and have been learning lots of new, fun things to use that food (as well as revisiting some old favorites) Well, included in our produce haul was over 20 green chill peppers… Continue reading
Consistency is about to go out the window…
So here we are somehow at the end of February already. HOW DID THAT HAPPEN?! Even with the extra day it seems like it just flew by. Continue reading
An Old Grad School Musing
One of the ways we have available to us now is digitally chronicling our lives. There’s time hop and then Facebook shortly jumped on that bandwagon with their On This Day feature. Well today I found something I wanted to share here. Continue reading
Cooking #8: Italian Feast
We’re interested in focusing on fresh food in our family whenever possible. That way when we’re eating ramen or boxed mac and cheese or even just string cheese and chips during tech week we feel like we’ve achieved some sort of a balance at least. Sometimes that means ordering from Bountiful Baskets, a CSA that we’ve tried a few times. This weekend, thanks to a fellow VBE, we found an even better deal on fresh produce Continue reading

I thought I had hit my stride on treating myself well and working out and it all goes so well… until I get tired, until I get bored, until I get sick, until until until… I have so many excuses about not doing things that make me feel GOOD once I’ve done them. All these road bumps get discouraging. No wonder as Christians we have seasons to focus on consistently doing things that don’t always provide immediate gratification. Continue reading
Here’s what’s been most Consistent this month…
February has always been a bit of a rough month in spite of its fewer days… My timehop and on this day entries seem to witness some passionate celebrations of love and friendship in the midst of a lot of struggle- February is a cold miserable time back east (well, it is for those like me who hate the cold) Continue reading
The Cupcake Theory of Love
I have been surprisingly exhausted all week… plus, it’s that time of year (Lent) where I do some more personal journaling about sin, prayer, etc. all sorts of things that don’t usually end up online but are really good for me. Those things combined have led to a dearth of posts this week, but in honor of Valentine’s Day and the fact that in several previous posts I’ve alluded to this, I wanted to write a little something on the Cupcake Theory of Love Continue reading
