Currently: January 2026

 Happy Wednesday! I am linking up with Amy over at Coffee and Cocktails at the Casa today for Currently!

I am.....

Currently loving.....

These candles from Amazon! They look super expensive and smell fantastic! {Santal Woods}

I am loving the pink for Valentine's! {Rose Lychee}

Currently resolving.....

This is one I had to think about it. I really am resolving how I want to go about shopping this year. I am tired of buying things that only last a season and are super cheap. I am really going to try and shop less, but shop for higher quality pieces.

Currently planning.....

I am *trying* to plan a trip. My only problem is that I am not interested in a budget 😂. I am itching for summer, so I really want to go somewhere sunny and warm!

Currently eating/drinking.....

I felt like after vacation and all the Christmas treats, it was time to cook food at home that is semi-healthy.

Monday night, I made chicken sausage and broccoli orzo.

Tuesday I made chicken and black bean enchiladas.

Not sure how we will go about the rest of the week, but we have easy Zatarain's red beans and rice and the stuff to make my goat cheese and penne.

And for drinking...

This is my favorite chardonnay!

I'm not doing dry January, but I am at least trying to drink less than I was before Christmas. 

I grabbed this pack of mojito mocktails at Aldi the other day- actually really good!

Currently watching/reading.....

I am reading The God of the Woods by Liz Moore, and I just started another rewatch of Desperate Housewives!

Have a great Wednesday!

  3. Those candles looks really fancy!
    Good luck with the shopping less, I have been thinking the same thing. Buying better so the items last longer. Ohh! The trip planning sounds like a lot of fun!
    I am doing dry January, so far so good but we're only on day 7. lol

    1. Good luck to you!! I have done dry January once I think- it didn't end up being as hard as I thought!

  4. The broccoli orzo sounds good!
    I think buying more quality pieces is a habit I've picked up in the last few years. Even brands like Carly Jean Los Angeles and Free People give me so much more wear for my money.

Let's Look: January 2026

 Happy Wednesday!! Let's Look is one of my very favorite blog link ups and after not doing it last year, I am ready for it in 2026! I am linking up with Shay and Erika for this monthly series! Today, we are LOOKING at..... THINGS WE OUTSOURCE WITHOUT REGRET. Ok, there are so many things you can outsource that I just would rather do myself. I love to grocery shop. I think I would be weirded out by someone else doing my laundry. A house keeper is just not something we currently need or really want. BUT, there are occasions when outsourcing is just what needs to be done. Grocery Delivery/Pickup We don't do this often, but when we do it's pretty nice. That being said, I am usually ready to get back in the grocery store myself! Food Delivery This is another one we do not do often, but a Wednesday free delivery from Wingstop has sucked me in a few times 😂. And of course, pizza delivery is always nice! Plus, we can get food delivered to the school I work out, so that's nice e...

Friday Favorites {4.2.26}

 Happy THURSDAY. My days are getting so mixed up with a Friday holiday haha! Posting Friday Faves a day early since tomorrow is Good Friday. Whoop whoop! We're getting a 7Brew!! I'm gonna let the new wear off before I go, but dang I am so excited for this! Have y'all tried it?? My sister gave me this MacKenzie Child's cookie jar for my bday and I love!! I made some white chocolate, peanut, and M&M clusters and they looked so cute in it! I will try just about anything once haha, but I finally jumped on the Tik Tok bandwagon and grabbed this facial brush for lymphatic drainage. My mind could very easily be playing tricks on me, but I'm gonna say I see a difference! Got mind from Amazon! And I cannot close out this post without mentioning Autism Awareness and Acceptance Month! Please, please, please educate yourself on what it means to have Autism, how to explain it to your children, how to advocate, how to include, how to help- all the things!! Please remember, if...

Friday Favorites {12.19.25}

 And just like that.....it's CHRISTMAS BREAK! And my last post of 2025! But before all of that, let's get into some faves from my week! Linking up with Erika and Andrea. Some Christmas funnies for ya.... 😂😂😂 "Underground Spirit Week" We dress up or do something silly and the students have no idea, so it's constant confusion and laughter! So fun! Monday- PJ day. Tuesday-  Anything but a bag. Wednesday- Favorite Christmas song or movie character. Oh Christmas Tree, Rocking Around the Christmas Tree, or as one student said...the Rockefeller Christmas Tree! Thursday- Christmas tree topper meets hat. This one did not last long in my hair...hahahah! Today is another PJ day for "Kinderland"! My name is Maddie, and I am obsessed with good smelling laundry.... These both smell AMAZING. The Wicked one smells exactly like the perfume I have been wearing- Jo Malone English Pear and Sweet Pea. Makes me sad that it's limited edition... I was looking for some go...
