Prepare for Landing

More like, “hey, we ignored you for three years, let’s address you!“. We are headed into some uncharted territory in the ‘ol house decor and renovate. We have a total of 6,200 square feet under one roof, and you my friend have only seen about 2,000 square feet of that. The landing was kind of a holding [...]

Let’s Eat/ 6

vegan pudding, chia pudding, chia recipe, chia dessert

I recently started incorporating chia seeds into my food instead of just my drinks, and I love it! This recipe is great for people who like rice pudding or tapioca, but are into trying a pudding with a healthy twist. Also it’s vegan, and gluten-free. Not to mention, delish! Enjoy!

One-a-Week/ 10

DIY wood blocks, DIY toy blocks, natural toy blocks

I love this project because it’s so easy, and you can avoid those pricy wood blocks at the boutiques! All you do is take 2X2 NON-pressure treated wood (make sure it’s all natural and not treated with anything), food dye (the kind you use on Easter eggs works just fine), a few drops of vinegar, and paint [...]

Over 3,200 Miles With an Infant

infant roadtrip

11 days. 3,200+ miles. 4 hotel rooms. Two 30-somethings with their 9 week old driving from New York to Texas with a stop in Nashville seems a little nuts, and well, it is. We decided to bring our bubbling baby boy down to Houston to hang out with the grandparents, and meet the great-grandparents and [...]

We finally have the confidence to tackle the front yard and address the lack of color! We were introduced to HGTVGardens a few weeks back and have been happily using it as a guide to help us do everything from picking flowers, to schooling us in what the best plants are for our specific area. They have this [...]

Another great baby find

intellibed

How much would you spend on a crib? A mattress? I thought around $100 was the going price for a crib and another $100 for a good mattress. And like everything else we have given our baby, a lot of thought went into the whole sleep issue. I am scared. to. death. of SIDS and [...]

April is always a weirdo sandwich month.

See, Joey and I got married in Vegas at a Howard Johnsons with Elvis singing to us. This isn’t a late April Fool’s joke. It totally happened, and it was very much planned. Our parents came, my best friend did too. It was a blast. We played our magic numbers, and won at roulette. It [...]

Let’s Eat / 5

cherry olive

Seems crazy to mix olives with cherries, but trust me, this is good. It’s ridiculously good. Make as a snack or appetizer and top crusty bread or crostini. If you want to incorporate it into a meal, bake in with a protein like grilled tofu or mock chicken. Print Let’s Eat / 5 Recipe type: Snack [...]

Throwing in the Towels

  We are giddy getting ready for spring and summer. Nothing better than having some friends over for a BBQ, or some fine dining outdoors. Now with a bebe, we have been searching for a good outdoor solution being he isn’t quite ready to sit up in the patio furniture, and is too young to [...]

6 Parent-y Things We Can’t Live Without

moses basket, restoration hardware moses basket

We are parents. It’s a very cool and very weird thing to accept. One day you are shopping for heels, the next you are buying tiny little onsies. There isn’t much of a transition. Everything and nothing chances all at once. You are the same person. Maybe with a bit more patience. Perhaps you have the [...]
