Literally just regular people

Life

Welcome to this corner of the internet that I am naming, “The Regular Folks”!

If you are reading this, congrats! You are reading the very first post of this blog.

I first started blogging in high school with a food blog. It was relatively successful at the time, and I loved it, but kind of fell apart when I went to college. Partially because:

a. I literally only had a microwave for two years on the dorms

b. I had no time

c. I was poor

d. It was hard to act as a foodie when I was literally living off cafeteria food, microwave popcorn, and cookout.

I have started and stopped a couple of blogs now, enjoying the community of blogging and sharing my ideas, but never really having a niche to focus a blog on. While I thought about starting another food blog, I have so many more interests now, that I really did not want to put this blog in a box.

So what is this blog? Part lifestyle, part food, part travel, part style, part whatever else I want it to be– and whatever you as the reader want it to be!

Really the encompassing idea of this blog is for it all to be realistic. I read a ton of amazing blogs about fashion, food, home, etc., but they often feel like the food they are posting is for someone who readily has a billion odd ingredients at their disposal and throws dinner parties on the reg. And the fashion ones are tailored towards people who have the money to spend the equivalent of my biweekly paycheck on a pair of shoes that I know I would break my ankle in anyway.

This blog is tailored for you, people who like the idea of all of these things, yet know realistically that it’s not happening. I call us regular folks.

Every month, my toddler and I shop for our local c Every month, my toddler and I shop for our local community blessing box. I use it as an opportunity to teach him about taking care of others in our community in big and little ways. This is everything we got this month! #blessingbox #foodpantry #toddlermom
🍩 2-INGREDIENT DOUGHNUTS 🍩 All you need is a can o 🍩 2-INGREDIENT DOUGHNUTS 🍩
All you need is a can of biscuit dough and oil to make the favorite breakfast of my childhood!
Once you pop open your can of biscuit dough and separate the individual biscuits, you can cut a hole in the center and GENTLY add them to oil heated to 350-375 degrees. CAREFULLY flip over once brown on one side and once both sides are perfectly golden, transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain excess oil. 
Of course you can’t go without toppings! Our favorites are cinnamon sugar, powdered, and strawberry glazed, but you could make chocolate frosting, vanilla frosting, or even jelly filled! The possibilities are endless when the doughnuts are this easy to make 😊
My toddler absolutely loved this first day of summer treat, let me know if you try it! #toddlermom #funbreakfast #whimsy #whimsicalchildhood #recipe

Did a really simple makeover to a sad, gray bathro Did a really simple makeover to a sad, gray bathroom to make it a little more fun and colorful for my toddler! So happy with how it turned out, and it ended up being such an inexpensive facelift! Inexpensive flexible moulding for the mirror, paint, an IKEA shower curtain, and some Etsy wall art made all the difference! #toddlermom #whimsy #roommakeover #whimsicalhome #colorfulhome
Letting go of my own aesthetic to make my toddler’ Letting go of my own aesthetic to make my toddler’s bathroom more colorful and fun. This was a super simple makeover and was very inexpensive, just to make getting ready in here a little more enjoyable. Let kid spaces look like actual kid’s play there!!!! #toddlermom #whimsy #whimsicalhome
Wanted to make my toddler’s bathroom a little more Wanted to make my toddler’s bathroom a little more colorful and fun without painting the walls a crazy color and making it feel even darker and more cave like 🫥🫥🫥 
Raising the shower curtain rod and sewing 2 inexpensive ikea shower curtains together definitely brought some color and funkiness into the space. And changing out the light fixture and framing off the builder grade mirror were such inexpensive upgrades that made a big difference! 
Also so happy with the fun wall art and affirmations to make getting ready in here a bit more fun! It’s a kid’s bathroom! Let it be colorful 🥰 #toddlermom #whimsy #kidsbathroom
