Cooking With Cast Iron

I recently made the decision to start consulting with Pampered Chef. I choose to do this because it was a great way to earn a little extra income, which goes into our savings account for when we move back to Washington. Additionally I choose to start a Pampered Chef business because I love their products …

Preparing For Baby

There are big moments in life as we all know. Moments that stay in our hearts forever whether good our bad, they stay with us. Growing up you begin to think about your future. Who you might become. Who you'll marry. The kind of career you might establish. It's amazing because nothing is ever what …

The Wait Is Almost Over

I feel as though I've been powering through the last couple of days because I've been looking forward to this weekend so much.  We have so much to do before we can move into the house but luckily we have a full month before our lease ends on our apartment.  We turned the electric on …

Atlanta Georgia We Went

Well sad to say I'm still not majorly impressed with Atlanta, this trip was far better then the first time I went but I don't see myself going back there again. Traffic was insane! It took us an hour to go five miles! But, I'm sure that has to do with it being such a …

Small Town Big Love

I wish I could post photos of today, but it will have to wait until tomorrow due to the lack of wifi and cell service. Isn't it weird what we come to depend on? Not having access to Internet or having complete cell service can be such a hassle but then again, first world problems …

My Halloween Horror Story (The Day My Boob Fell on the Floor)

The year I turned 13 was an extremely weird time for me. I was in the 6th grade and I was trying desperately to be the "cool" kid. I joined the volleyball team, participated in all the school spirit events, had sleepovers, and went on my first date. I wore the short skirts and flirted …

Charleston’s Farmers Market

David and I were finally able to go to the farmers market downtown today after nine months of living here. I was super excited because I wanted to get some fresh vegetables for a chili I am planning on making this week. It was beautiful! Friendly people, gumbo, po' boys, vegetable boths, bread, and so …

Nassau Bahamas (part 3)

You know that feeling when you hit a beehive or step on an ant hill and suddenly you are invaded by panic. That is how I felt in the Bahamas. It was all so much. Too much. The locals thrive on tourism like the Dakotas rely on oil. Everywhere you went someone was shoving something down …

Key West Flordia (my cruise part 2)

Unfortunately due to the severe weather conditions we ported in Key West Florida instead of Freeport Bahamas. We made the best of it and decided against making a fuss out of it because it wasn't worth the effort or time. Besides we got to see the southern most point in the United States.  I have …
