Here we are on another Sunday night and weirdly, I feel like I have all this energy right now. I have no idea why – just that I was pretty productive today and I hope this carries over to the week ahead. Friday evening Teacher Man and I headed over to Norm’s Wayside Rest to […] Read more…
Welcome, December
Welcome to December, friends! I officially ushered in the month by getting a little holiday shopping done, baking up some cranberry cinnamon sweet buns (recipe coming soon!), and watching my fair share of Hallmark Christmas movies. Buffalo has a pretty awesome little kitchen shop in town – The Abundant Kitchen. They carry a really nice […] Read more…
Slacking … and Sunday!
Okay friends, I have totally been slacking on blog posts lately. I thought summer was supposed to give us more time for fun stuff? I felt like this weekend literally buzzed by on double speed. I think it must be because the countdown to school is really beginning in earnest. Teacher Man’s last week of […] Read more…
Weekend Snaps | All About MJ

What’s amazing about this fall, however, is how my perennials and shrubs – and heck, even […] Read more…
Weekend Snaps | Around Home
I’m on the couch, typing this little weekend update on my laptop with Joe hanging out next to me and Earl the Pug at my feet. I’d say that’s just about a perfect Sunday night. (Oh, and there was ice cream. Always ice cream.) The weather felt more like late fall around here last week […] Read more…
Weekend Snaps | November in Minnesota
I have no idea why I am so completely tired tonight. Like collapse on the couch, barely-keeping-my-eyelids open tired. (Although Earl the pug did wake me up at 5:57 a.m. when he started roaming around our bedroom, making his usual pug snorting and heavy breathing sounds, apparently believing – and wrongly so – that it […] Read more…
