I love parties. And I love love. So what's the best kind of party? Anything related to weddings! (Plus, the sweet treats that you get to make and eat are a nice bonus.) Remember that if you need some quick and delicious recipes for cakes, cupcakes, frostings and more, you can check out ...
Wine Tour Fun!
Oh my goodness…SUCH a fun day yesterday! After about a 3.5 hour ride, our car (Sarah, Jeff, Brook, Andrea, me, and Jay) made it out to the camp we were staying at to meet up with our other car (Kanika and Shaheen) and our hosts for the day, Scott and Liz (pictured right), who are newbies to the ...
A Fun Friday Night
Last night turned out to be exactly what I had hoped for. Calm, relaxing, good food, good wine, and good company…aka, hubs and the fur ball. As soon as Jay got home from work, we poured ourselves a couple glasses of wine and did a nice little “cheers” to the weekend. I think my parents ...
What Is Wrong With Me?
Oh.my.gosh. Can we talk about perfection for a quick minute? Because I’m pretty sure that’s what tonight’s evening involved in the Horan kitchen.

I was super excited to see that my first package finally arrived (I only say finally because I was actually on the ...
One Step Closer
Soooo, do you want to know what the “exciting” thing was that I had going on this morning? Alright, well, the actual thing itself may not be that exciting, but the reason behind it is… I am now CPR/AED certified and I can officially save your life. WOOOP! I’d been searching around for the past ...
Why The Night Got Cut Short
Last night was a really big night for my dad and I was could not have been more proud of him! Depending on how long you’ve been reading STSL, you may or may not know that I come from a family of bowlers. Although Jay and I have taken the past couple of years off, all of us at one point were quite ...
Not Nervous, Just Excited
Last night was exactly the kind of Friday night that I needed. After a looooong week, there wasn’t much that sounded better than ordering a pizza, drinking some wine, and renting a movie from Redbox…so that’s exactly what we did. I finally got a chance to open up my bottle of One Hope Chardonnay, ...
The Littlest of Things
Sometimes I feel like my days go by so quickly that I don’t get the chance to really focus on the things that can always quickly put a smile on my face. It doesn’t have to be anything major, really. Usually, it’s just the littlest of things that can make me appreciate my day that much more. Like ...
