Links I Love

March 18, 2017 2 Comments

These past few weeks, I have been scrolling through several of my favorite blogs, and a few new blogs that I just recently discovered, and put together a list of ten links that I love and wanted to pass them along to you. From discovering a city guide to Nashville {which is about two hours west of where I live} to learning how to make my own massage oil, here are the links I love! 1. 7 Days of Workouts {Emma and Rose} “Exercise gives you endorphins and endorphins makes your happy.” That’s what Elle Woods said in Legally Blonde […]

Saving with Groupon Coupons

February 25, 2017 No Comments

*This is a sponsored post. All opinions are written in my own words and reflect my own opinion. I am always on the hunt for great deals at local and regional restaurants, spas, shopping, and travel destinations. What I love even more than the hunt is actually finding a place that has already done the hunting for me and all I have to do is decide on which great deal I want to purchase! For me, that place is Groupon! Groupon coupons makes it easy to save money on purchases we make online. Last year I purchased a three-month “New-U” Wellness Coaching […]

Ever since I watched The Heartbreak Kid, with Ben Stiller, Malin Akerman, and Michelle Monaghan, and saw the beautiful resort that they stayed in at Cabo San Lucas, I have wanted to go there. In the movie, they stay at Esperanza, an Auberge Resorts Collection. The beaches and the cliffside dining area alone were enough to tug at my wanderlust heartstrings. Those who live on the West Coast can just hop a flight to Cabo easy peasy, but those of us who live on the East Coast have a longer flight to and from Cabo. So taking a weekend trip to Cabo is kind […]

Wanderlust Wednesday: Grand Canyon and Beyond

January 25, 2017 3 Comments

Growing up in West Texas, I fell in love with the wide open spaces that the West is known for, which is one reason why I have major wanderlust for places near and far. Every summer, my family and I would travel through New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, and Wyoming to visit my grandparents. My grandma and grandpa Lashlee lived in Utah until they moved to Biloxi, Miss., to live with my parents. My grandma and grandpa Howard lived in Idaho, and then in Wyoming, before retiring to Cleveland, Tenn. On one of our vacations, my parents bought me a souvenir […]

New Year’s Eve Around the World

January 1, 2017 No Comments

Happy New Years! I always try {but sometimes fail} to stay up and watch the ball drop in Times Square in New York City. By the time you read this, you will also have celebrated New Year’s in your own way, with family and/or friends, with a fancy cocktail or non-alcoholic beverage of your choice. You will have watched fireworks light up the midnight sky, turned to your love and planted a big kiss on their lips, and sang the New Year’s Eve Song, “Auld Lang Syne”. Well, I’m a bit of a home-body, so yes, I watched the celebration […]
