Leaky Ceilings & All the Feelings"Mom!" "Mommy!" "Ma!" "Moooooom!" "Maamaaaaa!" "Muuuum!" I call it the "call of the wild" and it's a familiar sound around my home. It doesn't matter where I am, what day of the week it is, or what's going on at any given moment, odds are, someone needs me. Don't misunderstand me -- the neediness of my kids is something that is innately precious to me. But for the looooooove it can wear a person down, ya-know-what-I'm-sayin'? As a mom of five (I call them ... VIEW POST

Bistro Style Cinnamon French Toast: Out Of A Bag!
Is there anything better than the aroma of piping hot cinnamon French toast wafting through your home? I mean, besides a full night sleep. And a deep tissue body massage. Or the kids actually staying in bed after you turn out the lights? How about when the kids learn to wipe their own butts? Okay. Maybe there are a *handful* of things that are better than the out-of-this-world essence of mouth-watering cinnamon-n-sugar filling every nook and cranny of the kitchen. I've always loved a good ...

My Top 12 Target Finds to Beat the Heat
I'll start off by saying that I'm not a big fan of summer time. Like, if I could just get rid of a season, it would almost certainly be summer. All that suuuuuun....BLECH! Welp, I guess you can hit the *back* button, right?? ...WAIT! Hold up. Just because *I'm* not summer-obsessed doesn't mean I don't appreciate all the fun stuff that comes along with the season. It's just that the heat and humidity get me down. In fact, they make me down right cranky and cause my fibromyalgia flare up like a ... VIEW POST
Antiqued Gold Frame Made Easy
Old frames are hard to pass up. Odds are, I will never turn down a pile of vintage wood frames. It's one of those things that you can always use for something. Though sometimes (often, really) they are pretty beat up/bent out of shape and they don't necessarily fit the look I'm trying to achieve. The same goes for new frames! I'll check out the clearance frame section for cheap ornate pieces but they are usually in a color or material that isn't really my style. What's a ... VIEW POST
Summer Mantel Refresh: Keep it Simple!
Howdy! Jess, here, and I'm STOKED to be a part of this Spring into Summer blog tour with a fab group of talented bloggers. It's, like, so cool! EEEE! A-hem, anyway. I'm here to share my summer mantel refresh and every year, I go through this intense compulsion to completely overhaul all my nooks and crannies with every seasonal change. I think it's some sort of odd, instinctual urge for change and while it's exciting, it drives me bonkers! It's seriously like my brain goes through a reboot and I ... VIEW POST
Easy No Bake Cookies
I freakin' love these cookies. Truly. Madly. Deeply. ...Yes, I'm channeling my inner Savage Garden... ANYWAY. These are my go to treat when I need a quick sweet fix (and, let's be honest, that's often). I know, I've said it before and I will say it again, but there is something wildly delicious about the combination of peanut butter and chocolate. Combined with oats, it's *basically* a power bar, right? Right? I'm here to tell you that these cookies aren't really cookies, they're a health food ... VIEW POST
