I’ve recently been planning out some home DIY projects we want to undertake as we are trying to take our builder grade house and turn it into something that looks a little bit more us and custom. Step 1 of that process entails one thing: Pinterest. I’ve been trying to nail down what kind of vibe I want to go…

On Friday night I finished the sequel to Fourth Wing– Iron Flame by Rebecca Yarros! It took me all of three days to finish which I was pretty proud of myself for considering it is almost 900 pages long! Iron Flame was one of the books I was most excited to read this year and I know it was highly…

What is someone to do when they have an abundance of tomatoes in their garden and a bunch of veggies in the fridge to use up? Roasted vegetable soup of course! I like to have a couple of recipes in rotation to use up random produce in our fridge, and this one is our favorite as the weather is cooling…
