Little Luxuries: Candy and Pins

Little Luxuries: Candy and Pins

I picked up these Torie & Howard organic pink grapefruit and tupelo honey hard candies on a whim at Alon’s (also available at Whole Foods): The packaging drew me in, and they’re SO yummy! I admit I screamed a little in delight when I opened the tin and saw that each […]

Roasted Veggies: Zucchini/Yellow Squash

Roasted Veggies: Zucchini/Yellow Squash

This is one of those yummy, quick, easy, last-minute types of side dishes that always seem to come in handy. When I asked hub what he wanted me to make for dinner on his birthday, he thought for 2 seconds, then said, “Chicken phillies!” I added these roasted veggies as […]

Snow Cat, Buffalo Check, and Dark Olive

Do you have an item of clothing or a pair of shoes that you just wear to pieces? For me, it’s my denim vest and this buffalo check shirt, which I have been absolutely wearing O-U-T lately! It’s definitely going to be one of my One Hundred. Also, y’all know […]

Stripes and Plaid

Stripes and Plaid

Two cray things are going on here: The wind is blowing like nobody’s business, and I’m wearing hubby’s glasses. His actual prescription OMG-can-he-see-at-all glasses. Backstory: I accidentally left my Ray-Bans in the car and really didn’t feel like walking the 10 steps back to get them. Hub volunteered to grab […]

2 Easy Omelettes

2 Easy Omelettes

Salmon, Spinach, and Parmesan Omelette In my book, these two omelettes – each made with 1 egg + 1 egg white – have all the makings of great go-to meals: Yummy – Always #1… no matter how good-for-me something is, it’s hard to actually eat it if it’s not tasty. […]

Quick Change: Owl Sweater and Mint Button Down

Quick Change: Owl Sweater and Mint Button Down

Remember this owl print sweater + mint shirt combination from the double denim post? To switch it up a bit, I swapped the skinnies for a tweedy pencil skirt. On another, but related, note: I look like one of the “Desperate Housewives” in this picture. Love that tea mug, though; […]

AtlantaFresh Greek Yogurt

AtlantaFresh Greek Yogurt

This Greek yogurt from AtlantaFresh Artisan Creamery is the truth! It’s definitely not the typical eat-it-only-because-it’s-good-for-me bland yog, and I definitely do NOT just toss it into smoothies. It’s more like a treat and even – dare I say? – a healthy alternative to ooey gooey calorie-laden desserts. Y’all know […]

Yellow, White, and Gray

Yellow, White, and Gray

Last weekend, I was throwing the football around in the backyard in shorts and a tank top. Fast forward to Thursday/Friday, and it’s 40 arctic-windy* degrees outside! Well hello there, Spring! 🙂 *My hair is all over the place in these pics, thanks in part to the above mentioned breezes. […]

Three Things: Pens and Pencils

Three Things: Pens and Pencils

I have always had a thing for nice pens, pencils, notebooks, etc., so I thought I’d share three of the ones I’m loving right now. *Also, I don’t actually grow – or intend to grow – orchids. I do paint a little though, and I like to flip through the […]
