I believe we’ve talked a bit, about how I’m not much of a cook. What I am good at is research. I’ve scoured the internet for food blogs, recipe websites, tips and tricks, and I’m making myself better through research. My favorite source is still my mom, but that will never change. I used to [...]

I’m a girl on a budget. The budget is tight, very tight. I’ve learned to manage, but there’s not a lot of room for error. Last week I ended up driving a bit more than expected. Run out to Richfield to pick up a library book (where were you, Lisa?), drive to Maplewood (North) to [...]

Just so we’re clear, we will be discussing Christmas with my mother’s side of the family. Not with this guy: Are we all on the same page now? Good. So, Conway Christmas has become a tradition (can 2 in a row be a tradition?) and this year my sister hosted. For the inaugural edition, click [...]

If you had the chance, would you do it over again? Anything? It’s hard to decide, because, logically, if you go back and change one part, you’re changing everything that comes after.
