I have my 16 year old daughter to thank for this recipe. And I have my husband to thank (said sarcastically) for pushing me to make it. Long story short: he invited 3 adults over for lunch one Sunday and I had 15 minutes to come up with a hardy meal to serve them…

Best Friends Mini Photo Shoot #PSF {Give Me Your Best Shot}
My oldest daughter, KitKat joined me at one of my photo shoots last weekend as the official Pinterest-watcher and stylist for her best friend’s senior pictures.

Free Trick-or-Treat Printables to Help Kids Save for College
If everything goes as planned, we’ll be sending our oldest off to college in less than 10 months. We’re currently knee deep in the college application process, so college (an all of the expenses that go along with it!) are forefront in our minds. That wasn’t the case 10 years ago. In 2003, college…

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Waterpik®. The opinions and text are all mine. Gone are the days of throwing all of the kids in the bathtub at the same time, squirting some 3-in-one shampoo-conditioner-body wash onto their head and back and then scrubbing them all down at once….
To Be Young Again! #WordlessWednesday
This past weekend, I had 3 scheduled photo shoots. I’m usually not quite so ambitious (I know my body, and I know that walking and kneeling and crouching and stretching all day long with a heavy camera around my neck is not a recipe for a happy back). Luckily, each of the three photo…

Halloween Has Hit Dollar General!
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Dollar General. All opinions are 100% mine. I never have time to cook dinner on Halloween, between class parties and getting costumes on for an early-start night of trick-or-treating romp through the neighborhood, and Dollar General had the perfect no-fuss, totally-festive Halloween meal…
