Three. I watched three video tutorials on snapchat. Welcome to 31. A few weeks ago I was talking to some friends about the writing life and blogging recipes and they encouraged me to get on snapchat. They explained that it’s a great space to share my meals or just life in the kitchen with Beau. […]

Jeremy always said he married the right woman for the military. Which you would find funny if you were there, on that strained night when I locked myself in my closet so my roommate could not hear. I picked up the phone and cried and told my boyfriend that I can’t get past one thing, […]

I’ve been learning to settle into my skin, not locations. To find my home in people, not structures. I keep a bright idea in my pocket, that wherever I am is exactly where God has me and to bloom alive right there. To put all that I am in that moment, in front of that […]

It’s been rainy and cold here in South Carolina and I have basically found myself in need of a snuggie. Mind you my auto-correct turned snuggie into snuggle and I’ll take some of those too 🙂 Also, it is shocking to me that the Air Force did not send Beau home early on any of […]

Last week I did not get our table post up. It’s because I was waiting on news. And we just got it. But lets start here: This past July Beau and I went to L.A. While part of it was a vacation the other part was a secret mission. Could this be our new home? […]

So, this was the post I originally published for last week’s Around Our Table. It’s the one that got unpublished so I could share my broken heart (also, I have a post on Monday as a follow-up so stay tuned). But this post is bright and sunshine filled and I think we need some of that this […]

I’ve been all over this town telling people I already miss summer. Like some crazed and delusional girlfriend I’ve leeched onto this season and my request is simple, “Summer, stay forever! Or at least take me with you.” But the other day I sat down to think about why fall is going to have to […]

Gosh I want to know you! But I have been a horrible host here on this little blog. I’m still dancing between wanting to get you just a recipe, no strings attached, and also wanting to bring to you my bright, joy dripping self. That’s why I wrote this post about more heart. And then […]

I’ve been reading Bird by Bird by Anne Lamott. How have I not read this book before? I find myself devouring it but, like a good meal that took hours to prepare, I am willing myself to slow down. Take it all in. Appreciate what she has to divulge about writing. My friend Karla is reading […]

*I’m writing this letter to Beau on his birthday. The idea first came from reading the Marriage Letters that Seth and Amber Haines write on the first of every month.  Before we started dating, when we were just getting to know each other, there was this one night I couldn’t fall asleep. I was up thinking about […]
