Apologies for not posting on Monday. I switched to be off today for a nice little midweek break. I've got two long days coming my way so I figured that was my best option. Last week consisted of my own recipes and meals that I just threw together. Nothing exciting. This past Monday, it was … Continue reading Hump Day

I'm a 30-something wife, dog mom and nurse who enjoys having Mondays off. I take this time to try out new recipes and projects, drink coffee and deplete my DVR list.
Mundane Monday
In honor of National Cat Day, I had a very relaxing and lazy day. I watched Halloween movies all day but I did do some baking this morning and am going to make (my own!) vegetarian chili for dinner tonight. Beans, tomatoes, peppers, spices. Das it! Last week, I ended up making chicken tacos using … Continue reading Mundane Monday
New Monday
Mondays are an opportunity to start fresh and plan for the week ahead. It's a day to set new goals and pat yourself on the back for achieving last week's goals! My goals for today were to cook a few things, run some errands and get some meal prep done. While they are small goals, … Continue reading New Monday
Wine down Wednesday
While I was out earlier, I overheard someone say that Wednesdays are the new Mondays. If that's the case, the work week would be only three days! Sign me up!

Enter if you dare!
Wake up, wake up, wake up it's the first of tha month... of October! After only having my fall decorations up for a few weeks, I transitioned to a spooky Halloween scene today. I used to try to decorate the entire house but it's too much and I enjoy just doing the dining area. Less … Continue reading Enter if you dare!
Fall is here!
Well, sort of. It is officially "Fall," but here in Florida it's still 90+degrees. Ugh! Until the weather actually changes, I have decorated the inside of my house to make it feel (and smell) like it's actually Fall. I love the simplicity of it 🙂 Side note: If you haven't already jumped on the flameless candle … Continue reading Fall is here!
My first Monday
After a relaxing weekend at home, this Monday I decided to start a blog! Eek! I love to cook and enjoy trying new recipes although half of the time they usually end up like one of those Pinterest Fails. My husband, Paul, is a great guinea pig and always gives me his honest opinion whether … Continue reading My first Monday
