Our Valentine’s Dinner In
Wellll, another Valentine’s Day come and gone, but I’m very tempted to say that it may just have been one of my favorites! After we poured ourselves a little champagne from our $4.99 bottle (I don’t care what they say…the cheap stuff ROCKS!) We got to work on dinner. I took care of the main course, ...
Did I Just Hear…?
Soooo, it’s Valentine’s Day, and even though hubby and I don’t celebrate with overpriced flowers and chocolates, we do still have a special home cooked dinner planned for this evening.

So Many Goodies Today!
What a GREAT Sunday! Jay and I started off by heading to the mall, since I had a few things to return. Once the returns were taken care of, we both managed to do a little shopping damage… I picked up this new scarf and a thin off-white belt from American Eagle. Which, as a side note…I have not been ...

Doc, You Can’t Be Serious??
“Hi Courtney. Welcome to food skin allergy testing. We’re going to prick you with all of these needles today, ok?” Yikes! Luckily, this round of allergy testing only involved the tiny prick needles on my forearms, rather than having the big needles injected into my upper arms. It really wasn’t ...
