painting vents | Weekend House Project

January 28, 2011 decor January 28, 2011

I thought I’d post this today to inspire you all to do something fun to your house this weekend like I did last!! So, I wanted hubby to paint for me [since I'm preggo] but he knows I love to paint things MYSELF and I like it done MY way so he got me a gas mask to try…IT WORKED!!! The thing is amazing! I couldn’t smell a thing! It was lovely!  :) He kept walking into the room saying, “You can’t smell that?!” I was merrily painting away saying, “NOPE!”  It was bliss!  We left right after the painting, left the windows open and ran errands and when we got back…all gone!!! [Granted, I only did a wee bit of "touch up" and the vent shown ...

*sniff*sniff* FITori Fave | Scentsy warmers

December 2, 2010 decor December 2, 2010

I love Scentsy! It’s been a struggle for me for about 5 years to find a great way to make my house smell wonderful….when I come in the door from being gone all day. What’s wrong with candles? I LOVE Circle E “Birds of Paradise” and I love a ton of different Yankee Candle scents.  And sure, you can light a candle, but not while you’re gone!! [Remember, I want to smell the great smell when I walk in the door.]  Or if you’re like me, you do leave them lit while you’re gone and count your blessings when you come home that you didn’t lose everything [including Toby] while gone! What happened 5 years ago? I learned that the plug-ins that I LOVED are ...

simplicity. frugality. | Did you decorate for Fall?

November 12, 2010 decor November 12, 2010

I love fall. Love it. I love Christmas.  I love the seasons.  I love the holiday season. Lately, I am definitely in a phase of my life that includes simplifying my life, getting rid of things AND saving money.  I love to save money. I love throwing things away (or selling them). I love decorating but I have a hard time with “trinkets” and things that are not functional. YES, that’s a golden retriever ghost that we have on the front porch – It’s the week after Halloween and he’s not gone yet :( But I’ll take care of that this weekend.  LOVE long weekends!!!  My to do list is ready to get smaller!! I realized after taking this photo that I NEED A NEW ...

photo whore | Bring Back the Printed Photos

September 22, 2010 decor September 22, 2010

First things first, I’m sorry I have been MIA a bit in the last few days and my posts have been more recipes than nutrition or exercise tips! My brain has been fried lately and I’ve had no bites left for blogging.  What’s new? My LAST quarter of Masters classes started this week.  Add that in with my full time job, nutrition certifications, kitchen renovations, etc. and I’m just trying to juggle it all! With our kitchen renovation, we decided to get a new fridge. (In a few weeks I’ll tell you how I got my BRAND-spankin’-NEW stainless steel fridge for a few hundred dollars..no, really!!!)  I decided with that new fridge that I would no longer do my standard fridge photo collage.  DISCLOSURE: Even ...
