Hello dear readers! Last time, I wrote to you about the idea of work/life balance and how achieving a healthy balance doesn't equal a stress-free life. Instead, we must cultivate positive tension to hold us up when things get tough. Boy, has my theory been tested since that post! Complete honesty: the start of this … Continue reading On Positive Tension
Happy #menumonday, friends! As you probably saw in my post from last week, I had foot surgery a week ago. I'm recovering well, and even was able to make dinner on Thursday (it was a quick and easy one, I promise). True to form, my biggest struggle so far is remembering to take it easy … Continue reading Menu Monday 8.16.21
Happy #menumonday, friends! This week will bring us the start of a new year. I don't know very many people who are sad to see 2020 go.

Happy #menumonday, friends! Can you believe it? Christmas week is here!! I'm excited, but it is a bit bittersweet.

I love that we get the full two weeks … Continue reading {Menu Monday 12.14.20}

I hope you’re enjoying a slower holiday season and taking time to celebrate, even if it is small things along the way. Our Decembers are often filled with evening events, and while … Continue reading [Menu Monday 12.7.20}
Happy #menumonday, friends! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I think I’m still full from our turkey dinner. We had a lovely meal with way too much food for just 6 of us, but it was a fun day, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. November is coming to a close and I’m definitely … Continue reading {Menu Monday 11.30.20}

It's #menumonday! I gotta be honest. Today I'm feeling down. Yesterday, our governor announced new restrictions due to our case count here is Washington, and heading into my favorite season of the year, it's a bit of a tough pill to swallow. This time of year, I'm normally in full on 'Dance Mom' mode, baking … Continue reading {Menu Monday 11.16.20}
