If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting! I moved out of my rental home January 1. It was a great home for fifteen months and I had the best landlord. I moved in with my daughter and our pets in September 2018. It’s where we recovered…
I got to spend time at Bestie Boo’s house in November, which is my favorite place to be. I was intrigued when I found out they own a Ninja Foodi. I’m a big fan of Ninja blenders, but already owned an Instant Pot when the Foodi came out, so I showed restraint and didn’t buy it. Ninja…
Let’s talk about the best things to buy at Aldi. I am slightly obsessed with this chain, driving half an hour each way to shop at the closest one. Pro tip: I keep my quarters to rent a grocery cart in the little compartment on my driver’s side door. I even ventured out to see…
So my Facebook feed BLEW UP yesterday with people going crazy because it was Aldi Advent Calendars Release Day. Yup, I put that in all caps like a holiday. Because people are SERIOUS about it! What is Aldi? Aldi is a grocery store chain known for lower prices and unique offerings. Borrowing a cart costs…

I wanted some comforting the other day. I’ve been getting headaches and I wanted a warm bowl of goodness with minimal effort that didn’t require leaving the house for ingredients. And so my Instant Pot curry vegetable soup was born! I just looked in my fridge, freezer and pantry piling ingredients I wanted to…

My friends have helped me get through some really tough times while I’ve been on this healing journey following my divorce. Life gets hectic during the holiday season, but here are some easy and meaningful…
I’ve had an empty nest for a full month now. I’m still adjusting after sending two teenage girls off to their freshman year of college – one in another state. My house is so quiet. I’m all alone. It’s still weird. But these are some of the things filling my time and sparking joy. Pool…
There are two dicks lost in my house. Or maybe my car. This is the tale of the missing crystal penis. Actually, lost penises. Multiple. I bought them in Atlanta. My friend Brit lives there and told me her teenager encountered a bin of crystal dicks at a shop in Ponce City Market. I told…
I hate football. Sports are not my thing. I’m not into watching them live or on TV. Or playing sports myself. But I know lots of people are very into sports – especially football. I can’t keep track of all of the team names – NFL or college? And I can’t match teams to the…
