Happy Saturday! Brrr… it’s cold here today (I thought this was supposed to be Florida?), and we’re about to head over to our old place to finish the cleaning process so we can be officially moved out. That’s probably the thing I hate most about moving: having to clean your old place when you’re still …

Wow, it’s been a busy week over here! On Sunday I shared my packing list for Europe (yep, all that went in a carry-on suitcase!), and all week long I’ve shared five travel gift guides: for her, for him, for the littles, for the luxe traveler, and a roundup of budget gifts. This post contains …

It’s December! This is my favorite time of the year, but also the time of year when my anxiety peaks. I plan to take it a bit slower than usual this holiday season by being kind to my mind and body, enjoying the quiet moments (simply sitting and enjoying our fresh tree with a mug …
