Is there anything better then caramelized onions? I can only think of a few things. I am a little embarrassed to share that I spent the first 25 years of my life hating onions. I mean HATING them. ( really I was scared to touch them). I don’t recall what changed my [...] May 8th, 2013 
Sorry I have been a little inconstant with my posts lately. I moved last week and now I am staying with my parents in the Chicago suburbs for the next three weeks before we can move into our new house. My family is moving from Ottumwa, Iowa to Cedar Falls, Iowa. I can’t [...] April 24th, 2013

After being in blogging circles for a few years now, I notice that people are always trying to transform things to make them different, interesting and fantastic! I often wonder if all the ideas have been thought of. Remember when Pinterest was brand new? How overwhelming was that? You hopped on Pinterest and [...] April 2nd, 2013 
I have some really amazing friends from high school whom I am still close with even though we are all turning THIRTY this year! I already turned 30 in December, and one by one we are all reaching the big 3-0! Soon after I turned 30, my friend Sandra followed suite. It [...] March 27th, 2013 Sorry for the blogging break! My life has been a whirlwind the past 2 weeks! My husband has accepted a new job within the same company he works for now, and we are being relocated to Cedar Falls, Iowa.
