Our Raised Garden Bed Adventure

Farm To Table Movement

Now that Peyton is older and she's helping in the kitchen more I thought it would be a good idea to try our hand at gardening this summer. The past few summers I have tried to do a garden bed but the bunnies, deer, ants and other wild life took it over. They treated my gardens like they were buffets and cleaned them out overnight! I even tried purchasing vegetable plants and planting them. The deer really appreciated that! Took them 2 days to eat all the plants down to nothing.This year I ...

3 Tips to Help Avoid Yeast Infections

Yes, I am writing about ways to prevent yeast infections. Why? Because we need to talk about it. The first time I had a yeast infection I had no clue what it was.

Let's talk about a few things you can do to help prevent a yeast infection. Summer is drawing to an end and with that comes the last few hot and ...

Carry Everything in One Trip

Grillinator Utility Tote and Firewood Log Carrier

Peyton and I went camping a few weekends ago and I wish we would've had the Grillinator utility tote and firewood log carrier. We were at a carry in campsite. Which means you carry EVERYTHING in with you, including the firewood. In the past, when I've purchased firewood from the parks it's always been in a bundle. But at Glendalough State Park the firewood is kept in a huge shed and you portion it out on your own. They have a little contraption to help measure the amount of wood you are taking ...

Well, a certain deal caught my eye. It was a Groupon for a sign to celebrate school starting and it was personalized! Who would've thought I could use Groupon to ...

Double Hearts, Double the Love

Yes, I know cheesy title, but I wanted you to click on it! So, we all know I am single. That means if any jewelry is coming in the house I am the one buying it. I have been wanted a double heart necklace for some time now. I love how the two tone hearts play off each other, creating depth and dimension to the pendant. My favorite feature of the double heart pendant is how much it sparkles! Get this pendant in the sunlight and it's glimmering. Everyone's attention will be drawn to you. I like ...
