what I’m liking, Friday

via Is it just me or do you also have a hard time figuring out what’s for dinner? I know how tough it can be sifting through all the recipes on pinterest, but when someone recommends a certain recipe you know it was a good one. Here are some of the recipes that I’ve tried that are good, some of them are from this week. If you’re in a hurry and just needing something that whips up quick and is really tasty you must try this mozzarella tomato green and pesto chicken. Sometimes Brand and… Read More

how we wore it: spring time

Here we are again, little ole me trying to fit in with all these fashion bloggers, I’m just a wannabe -and that is all. When I first saw this picture I was quite concerned, I didn’t know how in the world I would be able to pull the look off and look half as cute and she does.

for the love of books

Hazel loves books. I’m not exaggerating, she really truly loves books. She loves dog books, books that play music, and books that are the touch and feel kind -you moms know what I’m talking about, but really she loves them all I guess. Right now one of her favorite books is a Zoo book that my sil gave Hazel for her birthday. It has animals in it, and there is a duck on-every-page -Hazel also loves ducks right now. Often times I’ll find Hazel in her room reading a book. It usually happens when I’m… Read More
