I love #DIYs, #recipes, and sharing my 2 cents on social media.

I can’t describe the joy this little fella has brought to our lives. 😍

We sadly lost our sweet Charlie back in March to chronic kidney disease. We were heartbroken that our four legged friend of nearly 12 years finally crossed the rainbow bridge.

Months later we had the opportunity to rescue Max. His mother had died and he needed a home...and we needed some hope for the future.

Max is growing fast and his boundless energy and sweet snuggles have brought some much needed joy to our lives.

He’s a #GermanShepherd / #TerrierMix and is not only fast but wicked smart.

Even on the toughest day he makes it brighter. ❤️

Sipping @cafedumonde coffee out of my antique #NoritakeChina and #HandSewing some #AntiqueLace from @thebrandonpirece’s grandmother’s stash to mend a velvet cape is my #MindfulnessMeditation today.

I am looking to add more #MindfulMoments to my 2021. Though I don’t have the complete set to my antique @noritakechina coffee cups - they bring me such joy every time I use them. (and I have no clue what the pattern is! help?!)

#ThriftStoreFinds like this, that contribute to my #MindfulnessMeditation, are giving me hope for what the #NewYear can offer. ❤️

“As long as you keep secrets and suppress inform

“As long as you keep secrets and suppress information, you are fundamentally at war with yourself…The critical issue is allowing yourself to know what you know. That takes an enormous amount of courage.”

- Bessel A. van der Kolk, @thebodykeepsthescore : Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma

I’m close to finishing this amazing book. If you have suffered #trauma in your life I highly recommend #thebodykeepsthescore. It is helping me come to terms with my own trauma in so many ways. ❤️

Breakfast yesterday was #ShrimpAndGrits heaven!

Breakfast yesterday was #ShrimpAndGrits heaven!

@TheBrandonPierce grilled #sriracha marinated shrimp and I brewed @cafedumonde #chickorycoffee and cooked @quaker old fashioned #grits with a pat or three of unsalted butter and @betterthanbouillon vegetable base.

Most of the time we eat this dish out of a salad bowl. 🤤 The grits are slathered in butter, @traderjoes sriracha sauce is drizzled over piled high shrimp, and grated black pepper #ToscanoCheese blankets the shrimp like snow.

It’s one of my absolute favorite breakfast/brunch dishes!

I tried something a little different with the plating - seeing as we had already eaten most of our #GrillDay portion of shrimp. 😬

I am still working on our #ChristmasBrunch menu... and I learned that this is a perfect portion size that helps us save room for ALL of our favorite holiday foods.

What’s your favorite holiday dish?

Going through my #FabricStash today to find pieces

Going through my #FabricStash today to find pieces that are perfect for #ChristmasStockings.

I’ve enjoyed #HandSewing these @orange_bettie mini stockings to surprise some of our elderly relatives with treats on Christmas Day.

If you love #sewing this is a great project to not only help you give a #handmade gift but it also makes quick work of the fabric you may already have stashed away.

Here’s a link to the pattern: http://orangebettie.com/2018/11/27/mini-christmas-stocking-in-3-sizes-free-sewing-pattern/

#HomaroCantu once said “When we think of classic #AmericanDesserts, we tend to imagine apple pie and ice cream. However, the most classic American desert of all might be the #ChocolateChipCookie.”

I couldn’t agree more! I’ve been baking #ChocolateChipCookies to share for the last week now and it has become a much needed calming holiday ritual.

I’ve upped the #ChocolateChips in my recipe to 3 cups and my chief taste tester @thebrandonpierce tells me it’s perfection. I hope y’all feel the same way. ❤️

One of the most wonderful things you can do is #ShareYourJoy with the world.

Make time this holiday season to share something that brings you joy.

Whether it’s a #homemade goodie or locally bought gift. Give from your heart this holiday season and let the people who impact your life in a positive way know what they mean to you.

Gratitude is a miraculous gift. ❤️
