Your love is my weakness….
Sometimes songs come to me all at once, in a tumble of words and melody. Others, like this little gem, took a few years. Even still, it took me several years more before I finally got the fully story behind the song. Funny how it happens like that sometimes. We all have them at one…

Mmm Mmm yummy in my tummy!
At least once a week I break out my crockpot for something special. This past week I decided to go with an old tried and true favorite – Split Pea Soup! My great-aunt used to make this all the time when I was younger and I loved it even then. Now I make it vegetarian…

Can you feel the love tonight?
Oooh yeah baby! Yes, yes yes I can! A few weeks ago my husband and I went back home for my sisters wedding. It had been about 8 months since we have moved to Colorado and had seen our family and friends back east. While family visits were mostly covered with the wedding, seeing our…

I tried something new…and I’m still alive!
This past Wednesday I went to “Painting with a Twist” for my sister’s bachelorette and I have to say, I was pretty nervous. I’ve never painted before and I don’t consider myself to be a a visual artist. Musically – no problem, but if you want me to create anything with a pen-shaped like object…

Save a little money – MONEY!
I LOVE saving money! Don’t you? One of my biggest budget busters has got to be groceries. I could honestly spend hours in Whole Foods just browsing. Take me to a clothing or shoe store, not so much.

Words of Encouragement
You are stronger than your circumstance. You are stronger than your past. You are capable of doing extraordinary things. There is no one that can put a box around you but yourself. Fling your arms wide and let the walls fall away. Feel the sunshine on your face. The wonderful possibilities of your life are…

Just a spoonful of sugar!
The other night hubby and I decided to watch Mary Poppins. Both of us hadn’t seen it for quite some time and were excited to reminisce about a childhood favorite. I love watching children’s movies as a adult. They are great for when I am a bit too sleep to concentrate, I swear they have…

Take a look….it’s in a book…
Did I just start my blog post with a rather catchy song that will be stuck in your head all day? Yes, yes I did and you’re welcome. Why? Because…. Growing up, books were a part of every day life. My mother read books (to my young eyes) by the minute, there were stacks around…
