Practical Ways to Improve Your Home, Life, & Budget
Some days I feel like I’ve been insanely busy but I haven’t gotten anything important done. Other days, Hulu and a nap are calling me. I adore working from home, but it’s not all that easy to be productive when you work from home. There are endless distractions at home that you don’t have to […]
*This post was sponsored by Let’s Be Well. All opinions are my own. Austin and I have taken many small steps over the past few years to improve our health. We’ve gradually started exercising more, cut out most added sugar, we watch our serving sizes, etc. It’s been a slow process, but I can now […]
Last year we did what we thought was the impossible: We paid off just under $19,000 of debt in 10 months to become debt free except for our house! I am still amazed at how we managed to pull this off and how it has positively affected our lives ever since — we’re currently saving […]

A company can say how great their products are all they want, but I want to know someone who has actually used it and loves it. I’ve especially felt this way as we’ve transitioned to using more natural, organic, and ethically made products […]
Full disclosure: I am not a fan of hosting a yard sale to get rid of stuff and make money… UNLESS: You have a date on the calendar for when your yard sale will be — otherwise you’re just holding on to tons of stuff for an undetermined amount of time. You have a lot […]

Today I’m sharing my favorite chicken marinade! It’s so easy and delicious. I’ve been making my own marinades for a while now.
