Practical Ways to Improve Your Home, Life, & Budget
Update: This is an old post that I’ve made a bunch of updates to. It seemed like many people stocked up on beans when the coronavirus hit, so I wanted to give you some ways to use them! Plus, we eat mostly vegan at home now, so we eat more beans than ever, so I’ve […]

You can think you’re eating healthy foods and still be consuming more sugar than recommended because sugar gets added to almost every food […]
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Lennox. All opinions are 100% mine. Once it gets cool in the Fall, we end up closing up our house for 5+ months. It’s too cold to open windows and air rooms out. Austin and I suffer from allergies and asthma between the two […]
I’ve got to tell you, I’ve been crazy-stressed lately. We’ve got a lot going on and a lot of big life changes coming up. I’m a planner and a worrier. So when I don’t know what’s going to happen and I can’t make plans, I worry. We all go through really stressful chunks of time […]
