My hope is that this space serves YOU and helps to make your life feel a bit more elevated and a lot more joyful. I will be sharing simple recipes, affordable finds (and what to do with them), tips and tricks, our home (wherever the Air Force and life takes us), and a lot of joyful life in between.
hey there!

HAPPY SUNDAY! This is 6 days late but I PASSED MY THESIS DEFENSE! I haven’t even had the time to get on here and write about it but I just wanted to at least update you all with the exciting news. I’ve been traveling, doing edits (my thesis is due to the graduate school next Monday), and […]
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! Life has been crazy recently as quickly I approach the one-month-out mark from my thesis defense. At this point all we do is write… So. Much. Writing. Blogging is much different than scientific writing, of course, but to be honest the last thing I want to do after writing for 8 […]

Hi everyone! We woke up to about 8-10 inches of snow on the ground this morning which means that we have a SNOW DAY! I remember them being much more exciting when I was a kid but hey, it’s pretty nice to be working in my pajamas at my kitchen table today. Sunday is usually “meal prep” […]
January 2016! This year is a big one for me. Not only will I get my masters but I will also hopefully get a “real-girl” job and will have to move (where that will be I have no clue). Since returning back to school from Christmas break all I’ve been able to think about is […]
Yesterday I listed out my financial goals for 2016. This stuff I guess can be kind of a touchy subject but I did something with my money last year that I want to share with you all in hopes that it might help you too. I suppose I should start by giving you a tiny […]

HAPPY NEW YEAR! I’M BACK! I’m so sorry I’ve been away for a little while now… I wanted to soak up every minute of break with my family, friends, and Stephen before I had to get back to the grind. There is a long list of things that I plan to blog about in the […]
It’s time for round 2! This time I’m going to focus on keeping my hair “styled” aka not the wavy/curly creature that tends to come alive on my head. I will continue using Bastiste Dry Shampoo when I need it and of course, I will tell you when that is. This week I will be doing slightly less […]
Good morning! I’ve been told so many times and read all over that washing your hair frequently is a bad, bad thing to do. I started to do some research on the topic and realized that there is no clear recommendation. Everything pretty much says, “It depends on the hair type, person’s preference, etc.” Of […]

Hi everyone! I’ve been some what “off the grid” the past couple of weeks because my poor little iPhone drowned from some condensation in a cooler… Through my LifeProof… I’m not salty at all… I still might be kind of bitter about the whole situation but as always, the phrase “everything happens for a reason” has never […]
