Can I confidently decorate my home and enjoy the process? Now I can! Yes! This book reads like a visit with a good friend. A good friend who really *gets* home decorating and is willing to help you with the process. I’ve read the first 4 chapters in advance of the book’s release (in exchange for my honest review), and it’s just delightful! I’ve found myself smiling, chuckling out loud, and nodding my head in agreement. In this book…
Whoopsie! I missed the 1-month update, so I’m chiming in now, 2 months into summer. Let’s see how I’m doing on my super simplified Summertime Adventure List. 1. Bake something special. It’s been a while since I made something special, and I think it’s about time. Now, what to bake?!? >>> I baked a really yummy coffee cake a few weeks ago, but I’m aiming for something a little more challenging! I need to pick out a recipe and make…
My sweet husband has wanted to go to Nashville, Tennessee for a long time, and we finally made the trip over the 4th of July holiday. I’m so glad we did! I wasn’t sure what to expect in Nashville, but I was struck by three things: the music, the history, and the food. Today I’ll share some of our favorite food experiences, and then I’ll share some about the music and history over the next few days. We focused on…
You guys! I have SO much to catch you up on, but for today I invite you to celebrate with me! JUST LOVE COFFEE IS COMING TO POOLER, GEORGIA!!! Later this week I’ll be telling you all about our trip to Nashville, but one thing I’ll go ahead and share is that we discovered a sweet little coffee shop called Just Love. A friend of ours recommended it, and we owe her a great big latte one of these days! …
It’s a rainy Sunday here in Savannah. We decided to try the Little Duck Diner after church for lunch today. We ran across it a while back and have been meaning to try it out. We’re glad we did! The rain was really coming down. Not perfect when you have a 20-25 minute wait for your table! Thankfully we stayed pretty dry. Hooray! We made it inside! What a pretty place! I opted for the Fancy Shmancy Grilled Cheese. It…
Welcome to OutAndBack! Today I’m linking up with Anne at Modern Mrs. Darcy where we’re all sharing things that SO working for us right now! One big game changer for us right now is Prep Dish! Prep Dish is a subscription-based service that provides me with healthy, delicious meal plans, the grocery lists to go with them, and prep instructions. This magical combination saves me a LOT of money and LOT of time! I posted a review yesterday and explained…
Do I love Prep Dish? Yes. Yes, I do. I’ve talked about it here briefly, but I want to give you the whole scoop on it today. I love to cook, y’all! LOVE to cook! What I do NOT like to do is figure out WHAT to cook. Can I get an amen? Or is it just me? AND I’m a messy cook, so I destroy the kitchen every time I cook…and I cook a lot. And then, PREP DISH!!!…
If you’re a regular here at Out and Back you’ll know that I’ve been posting a list of goals/adventures each season. I’ve had SO much fun doing this! You MIGHT have also noticed that I didn’t post a Winter List last month. I have wrestled and wrestled with this one; my brain has adamantly fought against making a list this season. Winter has been and is going to be just a little different than other seasons. Some pretty big things…
Autumn is finally here! Hooray! Yesterday I shared my Autumn Adventures list, a list of fun stuff I’m looking forward to doing this autumn. Today I want to backtrack just a little bit and give a final update on my Summertime Fun List. I shared my progress on the list here and here, but HERE is the original list and a super quick recap. Pantry: Reorganize my pantry. Done! Boxes: Clear boxes out of garage. Made a lot of progress…
A few weeks ago my husband and I went with our friends Doug and Jenny to our first Savannah Bananas baseball game and had a blast! You can read all about it here. I promised you that I’d come back and tell you about the nachos! BEHOLD!!! Behold, garbage can nachos! This masterpiece included chopped hamburgers, hot dogs, and jalapenos atop three orders of nachos, all served on a trash can lid! All of this for only $20, and the…
