Family Life
Why are men so darn difficult to buy gifts for? I know it must not be universally true - no stereotype ever is - but holy cannoli, guys. Out of all the people I buy gifts for, my husband, father-in-law, brother-in-law, and brother are all among the most challenging! Finding the best ...
Breakfast
Oh hey! If you haven't yet been introduced to my friend frittata, allow me the pleasure. Frittata is the coolest kid on the breakfast block. It is crazy easy to make (no crust to fuss with, like its cousin, quiche), fairly quick to make, and tastes FANCY. This sausage spinach frittata ...

Gardening & Homesteading

About Me
I’m a mom of four with an obsession for all things natural health, but I’m driven by wellness, not perfection. I’m an eternal optimist, a non-conformist, and a classic INFP. When I was 19, I married my total-opposite hubby, who is an ESTJ. This remains both the craziest and the best decision we’ve ever lived to tell about. I can always be bribed with sushi or tex-mex, and I love to embarrass my husband by cranking the music and dancing (badly) in the passenger seat.
