Inspired by SouleMama: A Friday ritual. A single photo – no words – capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember. If you’re inspired to do the same, leave a link to your ‘moment’ in the comments for all to find and see....
This summer we have taken many morning walks in Covington, just me and the boys, wandering around getting some exercise and taking in the sights while Ella takes cooking classes at Baker Hunt. I love walking around Covington, which is the city I lived in until I was eight, the city I taught in for...
Last week we bought ourselves a new camera. I am positively giddy about this. We bought a Canon Rebel T3. I’m not going to bore you with the details, you can check those out on Amazon…I just want to share some of my favorite pix that I’ve taken with my Rebel. And to tell you...
We love using our grill to make meals, and not just in the summer, but all year long. Recently we had some mouthwateringly delicious grilled chicken tenders that my Aunt made for a pool party. The recipe seems quite simple, and I’m envisioning making this dish a lot seeing as it was such a huge...
This summer I am doing my best to take steps to get more organized…in every area of our lives. Except cleaning. Still waiting on a house elf for that one. Some of the changes I’m making are huge, some are tiny, but in the end, they are all helping to make our lives feel a...

My little girl turns eight today. I wanted to write a sweet post like I did for Max’s birthday. But I’m just not great with words, despite my job as a blogger and a card-maker. And I couldn’t pick the right pictures, there were too many, so I decided to do a slideshow. This is...
Is anyone out there in my blogosphere wondering about my sporadic posts lately? I was doing so good at posting on a regular basis, and then POOF, lost my mojo! I’ve been a bit pre-occupied with all our summer happenings. We’re on the go quite a bit with art classes, cooking classes, swimming, hiking, and...
I am participating in Menu Planning Monday at orgjunkie.com, but unlike most of the other participants who plan their menus and post them that week, I’m always a bit behind, and I post my menus a week later. I do this so that I can let you know if I try a new recipe and...

This week we went for a long walk in the woods at the Dinsmore Homestead. After our walk we explored the grounds a bit. It was a beautiful & peaceful morning. Dinsmore Homestead is a gorgeous historic site located in Burlington, about 25 minutes from downtown Cincinnati & Covington where you can learn what country...
