Planner Organization | My New Addiction

{Note: This turned out to be a long post, so grab yourself some tea or coffee and settle in – if you’re interested in planners, that is!} Sometime back in October, I decided I needed to find a system that works for me in order to help me stay organized. I used to be the […]

101 in 1001

I first heard about 101 in 1001 from Queen Victoria’s blog, The Boom Boom Room. I loved her list and the goals that she aspires to attain and she both inspired and encouraged me to make my own. I was also inspired by Rachel over at Atwell Adventures. So what is 101 in 1001? It’s […]

Christmas Decor | 2013

We have had quite the week!

Frozen Hot Chocolate

You can probably easily find this recipe in the abyss that is the internet, however, I’d like to think I made it up…I was watching a Youtube video by CTFxC, and Alli mentioned how she’d had frozen hot chocolate in the past. Instantly my mind was like “oh, how would you make that?” Two minutes […]

Snowed In | My December Tradition

I remember the day I got it. It was a cold day in November, newly released. My family and I had been meandering through a store that no longer exists. And there it was in all it’s glory. Snowed In, by Hanson. Sitting next to it was their first home movie on VHS, Tulsa, Tokyo, […]
