January Favorites
Preparing for a comeback, haha. Seriously, Blogmas is so super motivating and really gets you in the blogging headspace, but it simultaneously drains you of all your writing energy, a true double edged sword. That, and life is kicking my ass, but whatever. Seeing as we’re only slightly past the halfway mark through February (thank…

Book Review: The Girls’ Guide to Hunting and Fishing by Melissa Bank
I’m off to a great start on that 2020 goal of reading 12 books and have already finished my first of the year, The Girls’ Guide to Hunting and Fishing by Melissa Bank. I’ve had this book for a seriously long time (I got it at Borders… are they done for?), and dug it out…

New Year, Same Me (but better, I hope)
New year, time for some resolutions. Mental health, first. That’s easier said than done because I truly believe that good mental health involves pretty consistent commitment to all of the quintessential resolutions. So, in putting my mental health first, I’m also prioritizing the following goals and living by the cliche, “You have to love yourself…

Blogmas Day 24: ‘Twas The Night Before Christmas
Merry Christmas Eve to you all! This is a repost from last year because I liked this cover of mine so much *toots own horn.* Today has been kind of crazy with a sick Chuck and an injured dad, and just things generally not going as planned. But, in the spirit of the good, old-fashioned…

Blogmas Day 23: 5 Things I Learned in 2019
We’re just two days out people, I repeat, just two days out. I’d actually planned to film a funny baking video today (that I’ll save for later), but dang it, editing is hard. That, and I have a killer headache/stomachache combo and am just not feeling it. We’re all about to be inundated with resolutions…

Blogmas Day 21: The Gift of Authenticity
Let’s talk authenticity. Authenticity. Real. Genuine. Buzzwords we hear a ton in the age of social media and everything in your face all the time. Being hashtag authentic has taken social platforms and brand marketing by storm and we’ve seen a ton of positivity come from the #real movement, like… The #aeriereal campaign, where we are finally…

Blogmas Day 20: A(nother other) Grown Up Letter to Santa
Dear Santa, How’s is going? How’s the wife? Is the weather cold there too? Are they really named Dunder and Blixem? In regards to last year, I totally forgive you for not letting me turn 29 again. Partly because I have a good heart and partly because I was told that’s not really your arena.…

Blogmas Day 19: Holiday Would You Rather?
Hello! I’ve seen a ton of these, “Would you rather?” and, “This or that?” lists floating around, so I figured I’d keep it light and try my hand at one today. Tagging @shutupcrystal and @thedailybaileyblog next! So, would you rather… have to loudly sing “Jingle Bells” every time you walk into a room for a…
