Have you heard of Earthing – the process of grounding the human body and its purported health benefits? On a recent podcast I heard, a woman said that she bought a grounding pad and it eliminated her joint pain and helped her sleep through the night. Sign me up! I have heard the benefits of […]
This week’s home improvement project was super sexy. We had the ceilings taped and mudded. Now they are ready for paint. Yes, we know how to have a good time AND spend money. You might remember last November, during one rain storm after another, we had our roof replaced. Where there were leaks, there was […]
I don’t know about you, but I have just been carb loading lately. Cannot get enough bread. Or potatoes. And I’m giving in to the urges. So we dug out our old bread machine and tried a new recipe this week. And I channeled my grandma and made biscuits. Again. For Meatless Monday I made […]
We have done so many household projects this year and now it’s time to do them all over again. Pantry organization is back in the rotation. It’s hard to stay on top of keeping the pantry organized. Especially since we are in and out of there all day, every day. It wasn’t in terrible shape, […]

I am easing into fall around here. Our temps are still reaching into the 100s during the days, but the days are shorter and it just feels like fall. So I’m starting to add a few things here and there in my home to mark the season. I am NOT shopping for any new autumn […]
I hope everyone had a nice Labor Day weekend. We continue to carry on as if it’s summer here and throughout much of the West, but as close as Flagstaff, the weather will be changing. They will be flirting with freezing night temperatures and my sister, Susie, who lives in Colorado Springs, will get her […]
This weekend we celebrated our DF Denisse’s birthday with a visit to Globe, Arizona and Waggin’ Vineyard and Estate. It was a wonderful day and I want to share it with you. First of all, Globe is far away from our home. Far. But, it was worth the drive. And besides, it’s not like there […]
I recently sent an email with a typo. Yep, I tried to schedule something for 8/1 when we’re already more than halfway through August. Whoops. And how did that happen, by the way? I meant 9/1 on my memo but I’m having a hard time wrapping my head around September. It seems like a good […]
