Thank You

As I've mentioned before, the past few months have seemed long and trying at times, however it has also felt like a blessing for my relationships. Not only has my relationship with Flyn been stregnthened, but I continue to be amazed by Jesus's grace & mercy in my life. He continues to work through each of us and through each other. Each day of [...]

My favorite chicken dinner

This recipe holds a special place in my heart. Mainly for two reasons. One. My soon-to-be husband made it for me on our second date and man was I impressed! Secondly, he made it for me again on our first Valentines Day together. So, I was more than extatic when he offered to give me a break [...]

More letters

Dear Guy in the honda civic, Where you really just having an uber bad day? I mean YOU pulled out in front of me, so I honked my horn, hoping that you would realize how unsafe you were being and not do it again. I mean if my ninja quick reflexes hadn't kicked in, I could have hit you! [...]

“I couldn’t walk in high heels………”

Dancing with the Stars is back for another season. I didn't watch it last season but I must admit it is enjoyable. Partly because a part of me wishes I could dance like they do, but mostly because I like trying to figure out who will get kicked off next. I've found you can usually tell in the first [...]

White Chicken Chili

Thank you to my friend Becky for giving me this recipe! Yummy. Healthy. Flavorful. Easy. Perfect for Fall. Cast of Characters ( might have missed a few) Step # 1 Brown your chicken.

Letter

Dear Restaurant Manager:   Friday night my fiancĂ© and I were excited to go and eat at your fine establishment. I even went so far as to sign up for your rewards card so I could get a free appetizer/dessert upon our visit, even if it meant knowing that you will send me hundreds upon [...]

You couldn’t have come soon enough

Oh how I love you Friday! Work kicked my butt this week. I have been swamped in work from 8am-4:30pm every day. But that is okay because it makes the weekends so much better when they finally arrive. And what's better is when you get off early on Friday! Off to the gym and then [...]

Beat the system

One of my least favorite things is singing up for memberships that require you to work with a pushy salesperson.   Case in point: Joining a Gym   I have been researching good deals around the area sense my previous gym up and closed down suddenly. My co-worker told me about a gym that has relatively good rates and you don't [...]

Middle of the week hump

Wednesdays are my least favorite day of the week. Tuesday isn't much better but at least I know the weekend is still far off and it doesn't tempt me so like Wednesday does, Taco Tuesday anyone? And it is certainly not even close to Thursday, which yes you guessed it, means you are one day away from Friday…..no [...]
