A Summer Bed Makeover with Garnet Hill.
I’m about to turn in for the night, and since making the bed up with our new bedding gifted from Garnet Hill, I can’t help but pinch myself that this bed even exists in my house. Listen though, a cozy bed does not have to be expensive. Most of our bedding has been from target, … Continue reading A Summer Bed Makeover with Garnet Hill.

A Tip for Productivity.
I heard this tip several years ago on the Happier podcast with Gretchen Rubin and it’s one that has stuck with me over the years. It’s the five minute rule. You ready for this? Ok. So: If something is going to take less than five minutes, do it now. Don’t put it off until later. … Continue reading A Tip for Productivity.
The Friday Post. [vol. 2]
In the grand scheme of fast weeks versus slow weeks - it was a fast one, but I can’t say that it’s one I enjoyed all that much. This morning, our whole street was blanketed in a thick sheet of fog. We drive down a mile long stretch of straight road to get out of … Continue reading The Friday Post. [vol. 2]
