Recently, one of my favorite co-workers left for a new and exciting opportunity. While I was happy for her, I wanted to let her know that work would "blow" without her (ha-ha). This was my way of telling her that!

The nice thing about this craft is that you can make it...

It's the most...wonderful time...of the year!!!!

I LOVE this month, and I know I'm not alone. Since this blog celebrates the little luxuries of life, let's discuss. Aside from all the pumpkin spice everything, here are ten things I am so excited about!

With all the natural disasters happening, our feathered and furry friends can be forgotten.

Since we have a holiday approaching, I thought I'd share my favorite BBQ sauce with you. This is a white sauce, made for chicken, turkey, or pork. It was invented in my hometown, and has won the national championship six times! If you've never had a white sauce, I urge...

Have you tried chalk paint? I have wanted to for years, but I've been too afraid. However, after reading a ton about it, I bit the bullet, and I couldn't  be happier!

The advantage to chalk paint is that you don't have to sand or prime a piece before painting. You just...

I love the idea of monthly "want to" lists. I feel like it makes me more intentional about enjoying the best each season has to bring. As such, I've been thinking about what represents summer to me, and what activities should not be missed.
