My husband and I bought our house in Nov 2016. Since the housing market (and life!) is so expensive in DC, I thought I’d share my tips for how I earned some extra cash here and there. P.S. I still continue to use a lot of these — because who doesn’t want extra $$ #amiright?!
Cottage Pie (or Shepherd’s Pie made with ground beef instead of ground lamb) is the ultimate comfort food . . . a good old meat-and-potatoes dish for a cold day or when you’re in need of some “stick-to-your-ribs” food. . .

When the new facebook cooking and cookbook group I’m a part of chose Julia Child’s Mastering the Art of French Cooking as their Jan 2017 cookbook I was psyched! Since breakfast is my jam (in case you don’t know), I was super excited to find she had a recipe for 6-minute soft boiled eggs . . .
Valentine’s Day is right around the corner. . . are you ready?? If you haven’t gotten your special someone a little something just yet, well you’re in luck! I’ve come up with a short list of some simple DIY things you can do, as well as other items for purchase.
I have been testing this breakfast muffin recipe for months now. I’ve changed it, adjusted different ingredients and amounts, added this, removed that. I think I have finally found a mix that suits me just right! 🙂
Guess what!! This past week we adopted a super-cute 13lb chiweenie (dachshund / chihuahua mix) from a local rescue organization. . .
It took three revisions and a one year break, but I finally came up with a layout for my first quilt. Thanks for being patient. Read on to see my struggles, my different layouts and what I ended up with.
