Thanksgiving is all about food, fun, and of course, giving thanks. As a kid, I loved anything that had to do with crafting. Scissors, glue, and scotch tape would easily keep me occupied for hours. Who doesn’t remember tracing their hand, cutting it out and drawing or gluing feathers to it? Now I love creating […]

Vinolicious Frozen Wine Review and Giveaway {ends 11/5)
October 31, 2013 By
I love to drink a glass of wine on occasion. However, I am not an expert on fancy pairings, detecting “woodsy notes,” or knowing someone crushed the grapes Lucille Ball style.

September 27, 2013 By
It’s Pumpkin Time Again! My mother told me that my name was almost Autumn. Almost. No offense to the Autumns of the world (because I do love the name), but my grandma thought it sounded too “hippy.” My name might not be Autumn, but there is no doubt that autumn or fall is my favorite […]

Dream Dinners Review
September 12, 2013 By
Reclaiming the Family Meal I made a promise to myself going into this school year: more family dinners. I wanted to reclaim the family meal and sit down to eat dinner as a family. My sons would be busy with activities, but I wanted us make a concerted effort as a family to have that time […]
