Weekend Recap

 

Hello Monday! Happy Memorial Day, friends! May we all remember and honor who and what this day is really about. I am grateful today and every day for the many men and women who have lost their lives fighting for our country. 

Friday after I got home from work, we went out to eat...and then I had to get a new car battery😩. Ugh! But we were so glad that we decided to take my car to dinner, otherwise this would have happened to me before work on Saturday morning! 

On Saturday, Caleb and I both had to work. When I got home from work, I unloaded the dishwasher and cleaned up the kitchen. 

Have I mentioned that I love a clean kitchen?? 

Sunday morning we decided to just sleep in. I think we both woke up around 8. 

I got up and made my coffee and did a few days of The Bible Recap. I'm about a week behind😬. 

I put out our flag...

And then I....

Got back in bed to read for a bit😊.

I read for about an hour before I got ready for the day. 

My OOTD for running tons of errands! 

And of course a Gresham stack. 

We went to Ulta, Marshall's, Lowe's, Aldi, Kroger. Then home to unload groceries. 

I made blackberry-peach freezer jam! 

I'm usually not really a tomato person, but (of course) Tik Tok has influenced me to try a tomato sandwich. and these looked really good! 

And then we went back to Lowe's and Aldi....

I've been eyeing this patio set for a few months, and we finally took the plunge today. We also found a fire pit at Aldi and decided to go back for it. 

I read for a while on the back porch. 

I typed this post on the back porch. 

I think we'll be spending lots of time on the back porch this summer, hopefully anyway! 

Have a safe and blessed Memorial Day! I'll meet you back here tomorrow morning for my May book review! Can you believe we're already at the end of another month??

Let's Look: March 2024

  I'm back!! Happy Wednesday!! It's the second Wednesday of the month, so that means it's time for LET'S LOOK with Shay and Erika!! In January, we "looked" at How We Clean Our Closets. In February, we "looked" at Little Things We Do Every Single Day. Today, we are "looking" at..... OUR GROCERY CARTS!!  Since I was in Nashville over the weekend, I had to run in Trader Joe's! So, I went ahead and did my grocery shopping for the week while I was there. Plus some other goodies too!  When I went to the TJ's in Huntsville, I said it was my favorite. BUT, I have found a new favorite. There are two locations in Nashville, and I've now been to both. The one on White Bridge Pike is FABULOUS! They had every single thing on my list, and then some. I've been to the other location over by Green Hills Mall, but I didn't look around much, so I can't really attest to how that one is.  I snapped this picture of my grocery cart! This i...

Friday Favorites {12.20.24}

 Happy Friday, friends!! And Merry Christmas Eve Eve Eve Eve Eve- that's a thing, right??😂 I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea today to share some faves from the week, and then I will be off for the holidays! My plan is to see y'all back here on January 13! For some food faves.... I grabbed the raspberry kringle at Aldi the other day after seeing so many positive reviews on it. It is really good!! I had some with a cup of coffee a couple times this week! Last night, Caleb made lasagna soup- YUM. Definitely a favorite of mine lately! A great way to end the night.... Caleb made me a cosmopolitan the other night. Yum! I am really going to miss this sight.... This is my favorite time of year for sure! Twinkly lights and candle light = the BEST. On my drive home from work yesterday.... This was a fun little surprise. I don't remember this from last year! I hope you all have a great weekend and a very Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday! However, whatever, whenever, whereve...

Friday Favorites {10.18.24}

 Happy Friday!! I hope you all had a great week! I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea today to share some faves from my week. Well guess what is back tonight?? NEW Hallmark Christmas movies!! Ummm YAY!! I'm most excited about Confessions of a Christmas Letter (Angela from The Office is starring in that one!) and Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story! For some foodie faves... This right here. It made my week. I'm obsessed with the tuna from Beagle Bagel. It's amazing. I can never say it enough! I made egg drop soup for the lunch the other day, and it was really good! It's always been my favorite soup from Chinese buffets. I didn't feel great and wanted a soup...luckily I had all the ingredients. I used this recipe here. The weather this week was absolute perfection.  I mean, it was really, really cool. And it was fabulous. So, that means.... I broke out a sweater and my Sorel booties that I love so much! I always forget how good the Bible app is. I opened it up...
