What's What

Happy Saturday this and thatters!  

 I hope you are enjoying this last weekend of the holiday season.  I watched my favorite movie The Holiday one last time last night (rocking Friday night).  I am not ready to kiss this season goodbye yet :)

This weekend the hubs and I are having some couples time in the ATL.  I'm super excited.  I hope you enjoy your weekend.

1.  New Years Eve

 So I remembered to take pics of my cute (in my opinion) table on New Years Eve.  Full confession I got all the decor at Target and it wasn't expensive.  I saved most of it because I will use it again and again.  I loved that the hats and glasses light up!  And don't let the pic of the hubs fool you he was having a blast ;)







2.  Lemon Water

 So I've seen and heard tons of people talking about drinking lemon water first thing in the morning.  I was a bit skeptical I mean can it really do everything, everyone says it does?!  I read the article below and decided to give it a shot and I have to tell you that I am hooked!  

 While I've noticed lots of good things the best thing is that it helps calm my stomach.  I've always had a nervous tummy and this is the one holistic thing that actually seems to work!  

 I'm super excited to incorporate this into my morning routine!

3.  Food 52

 Have you ever heard of this awesome site?  I found it when I was trying to figure out if ginger root was the same thing as fresh ginger.  They did an amazing job answering my question. Then I started browsing the site and it's really incredible.  

 Their whole premise is to make you a smarter, happier cook and I love that.  They take the guess work out of things and can help you break down complicated recipes.  The site also gives you a ton of new and different recipes and ideas of what to cook.  I am hooked and you will be too!

The Truth, The Whole Truth and Nothing But The Truth

I don't really want to write this post.  I want to crawl in my bed, with the covers over my head and watch the real housewives of nyc seasons 1 and 2 (before Jill and Bethenny hate each other).  I don't want to talk to anyone, see anyone or answer my phone.  In fact it's been on silent for the past three days.   I am writing this post because I started this blog as a living, breathing diary.  It is a fluid documentation of my life and what is going on right now.  Unfortunately what is going on right now isn't a fun trip, a great product recommendation or a great style entry... it is real life.   This week something sad happened to me and the hubs, we had a miscarriage.  I will tell you that I hate the word miscarriage it seems clinical to me.  What I have said is we lost the baby because that is how it feels to me.   Without boring you or scaring you with too many details I knew something wasn't exactly right.  I started bleeding and was away from home and my

At Home Facial Favs

Image
Happy Monday!  I hope you and yours had a great weekend.   On Sunday I gave myself an at home facial and documented some of it on my instastories and got 100 questions, ha!  So I figured I would share what I used here.   The first question I got was the frequency in which I do at home facials and I don't do them as much as I want to or probably should.  I aim for once a week but it's probably every other week.  I love going to a spa and getting a kick ass facial but there isn't always time and sometimes they can be pricey so I've developed an at home routine for myself. I will say as I get older my skin is changing so I'm having to investigate new and different products.  My skin is sensitive, prone to breakouts and can be super dry and super oily so it's a constant juggle for me to find products that actually work for me.  Recently I've been using a ton of philosophy products and I have loved every, single one of them so far!  I also love that you get

The Power of Positive Thinking

Happy Hump Day readers!!  I hope you're having a great week.  From time to time I get emails or requests for certain topics and honestly I've gotten this request in some form or fashion a few times lately.   People have emailed or Facebook messaged me about positivity or how to stay happy during hard times etc.  To be honest I was a bit surprised that these asks kept coming.  I decided it was a sign that I actually needed to blog about it.   I think we've all heard the typical attitude is everything comments and most of the time they are in one ear and out the other.  Or we don't think they apply to us just everyone else.  However, I don't believe that.  I truly believe our attitude and thoughts shape our hours, days, years and ultimately our life experience.   I think this is a huge shift for most of us.  To take our thoughts from the place they have always been is super difficult.  When I got honest with myself I realized that a lot of times what I was think
