It’s getting to feel like summer (FINALLY!!!!) here in Chicago. And the weather has sparked my inner shopping bug, DIY’er and fashionista. Here are some summer picks that have caught my eye! Aztec Maxi Skirt by 3 Brunettes Boutique “The F World Cuff” from Stella Valle – Seriously, if money was no object this cuff […]
You remember Chaz from Wedding Crashers? If the image of Will Ferrell strutting it in his bathrobe doesn’t come to mind perhaps his signature line will. My husband loves that movie and what he loves even more is this recipe I have for goat-cheese and prosciutto stuffed meatloaf. The meatloaves are individually sized so you […]
The quote “I’ve always depended on the kindness of strangers.”Although the original context of that quote doesn’t relate to my situation, the words never rang more true than this week as I was trying to manage grocery shopping, my million worries about the house/life/family/etc., trying to ensure all my coupons were aligned to my purchases […]

As January rolls around, there is always a number of new guilty pleasures in television to add to your routine.

Since I’m over the age of 30 and a parent, my weekend nights are typically spent in and we try to do movie night. Especially tonight as I live in the midwest and it’s like negative-@#$@#%^$#%^-cold outside. Try to contain your jealously. Tonight I’m watching This is 40 starring Leslie Mann (who is way underrated […]
Adopting a skin care regimen has been way too challenging over the years. Partly because I have uber-sensitive skin like Casper the friendly ghost. And partly because I refuse to spend a ton of money that coats my face with more perfume than actual cleaning components. Basically if you picture Johnny Depp’s Mad Hatter getup, you […]
