Lovely Lady Writer Ele (I “borrowed” that phrase from her… not sure if I’m giving it back, though, because I quite like it :-)) of the wonderful blog Inspirationele was nominated for a Liebster Blog Award — congrats and YAY! Instead of in turn posing the usual questions to her […]
Here’s a look at what’s in my beach bag: Water and a healthy snack Reading material: a book and magazines Clean-up crew: hand sanitizer and baby wipes Sunscreen for sensitive skin: Oil of Olay Complete (face) and California Baby Super Sensitive (body); I mix the latter with regular body lotion […]
Harbor Town Lighthouse I’m super happy to say that my fam and I took a much-needed beach vacay to Hilton Head Island last week! I so, so, SO needed that 🙂 View from the top of the lighthouse Boats in the marina at Harbour Town Horses at Lawton Stables Swing at […]
Hub and I had the best creamy smoothies at The Umstead a couple years ago, and I lucked up on making a surprisingly similar one while I was experimenting with smoothie recipes this past weekend. Remember that scene in The Best Man when Robin (a caterer, I think) was all excited […]
