I survived the longest, tiring, and most challenging week of work I have all year. I worked straight through for 12 days and for many days in a row I worked 18+ hours. Definitely a rough way to start out the year after vacation! It also made sticking to all of my new goals impossible.… Continue reading I’m Alive!

From Scratch Mini Gluten Free Pumpkin Pies!
How was your Halloween? We spent the evening in and handed out candy to the neighborhood kids. It was actually really nice to not be out on Halloween for a year.

Tangy Chicken, Roasted Potato Bake, & Morning Walks
It's getting dark outside people! Yesterday was the first morning that I realized how much the sunrise and sunset times are starting to change. My morning walk with Peanut was barely lit at all. Peanut definitely gets a little spooked in the dark. We would walk by a house when their sprinkler system would turn… Continue reading Tangy Chicken, Roasted Potato Bake, & Morning Walks

Did you all watch football this weekend? We are Cowboys fans so their Sunday win was a perfect ending to the weekend. Here is my weekend recap: Saturday morning it was in the low 60s outside. It felt amazing! I used this opportunity to open up all the windows in our house and air it… Continue reading Weekend Recap: More Football, Gluten Free Pizza, and a Vet Appointment
