Links I Love

It’s been a CRAZY fun month so far and I’ve spent little time clicking on links, but here recently I have found myself clicking on links for various YouTube videos. In fact, I have never just sat down and watched YouTube video after video until last weekend. In addition to YouTube links, I have found some really cool links for football season fashion and tailgating ideas. Football fashion ideas. Tailgating ideas. Copycat Krispy Kreme Oreo Cake Doughnuts.   36 Ways to get Happy now. As for the YouTube channels I’ve recently subscribed to… shout-outs to Nikki Phillippi, Kandee Johnson, Fleur […]

Last Minute Labor Day Travel Ideas and Deals

I know I have already written a “wanderlust” post for this month, but with Labor Day literally just around the corner, I decided to write a special “wanderlust” post about LAST MINUTE LABOR DAY TRAVEL IDEAS AND DEALS!!! My parents are traveling up to the West Virginia to meet my dad’s brother’s wife’s family (does that make sense?), and I’m sure my brother and sister-in-law will most likely attend the Texas A&M football game that Saturday and then (just maybe) take a road trip to the beaches of Galveston, Texas. However, my husband and I currently don’t have plans, except we’ll […]

“Bare and Me” Makes Me Shine

Back in April, I decided to complete a “101 Things to do in 1001 Days” challenge, and No. 88 was to “buy something from Etsy and blog about it.” So when I found out that Bare and Me was going to be a sponsor/vendor at the BlogHer 16 Conference in Los Angeles, I decided to browse Laurie’s Etsy shop and I soon decided what I wanted to purchase before I even saw the items IRL. This is the second in a series of post-conference blog posts about the sponsors and vendors I met and networked with at the BlogHer 16 […]

Wanderlust Wednesday: Take Me to Disney

I’m 43 years old (and I’m not afraid to admit it) and I’ve NEVER been to either Disneyland or Disney World. One is in Florida and the other is in California. But this girl right here (imagine me excitedly waving my hands in the air) has never been to either Disney location. I want to have my picture taken with Mickey and Minnie. I want to dance with Goofy. I want to hug Donald and Daisy Duck. I want to have a Princess makeover like Penny, Bernadette, and Amy did in The Big Bang Theory. I want to ride the rides, […]

20 Things a Woman Should Live By

I found an interesting article a couple of years ago that listed “20 things a woman should live by” and I thought about how women of every generation can still learn a thing or two about life and living. Read it and enjoy! Some of these rules can apply to married women or single women. For instance, “Men are an amazing part of life, but they are in no way the be all and end all of life.” Or “It’s ok to be 22 or even 32 or 42 and not know what you want to be when you grow up.” Heck, I’m […]
