My Simple Plan for Saving Our Memories This Year
We're talking memories today as part of our month long mission to find ways to eat better, parent better, organize better and just generally live better this year.

While that has involved quite a bit of organizing and cleaning, I just haven't had the time to document it. However, last week I did have the chance to snap this quick after photo of … [Read more...]
30 Tips to Make Life Easier & Better
I've got a bit of a love/hate relationship with Pinterest. Mostly it's all fuzzy warm feelings and gratitude for the mountains of delectable eye-candy. But I do have a couple bones to pick too. First, it can be a HUGE time suck. Invariably so at times when I really just need to get stuff done! Second, I've realized that all the pinning over there has led to fewer round ups over here. So today I'm attempting to remedy both of those problems with the inaugural (and possibly last ever) MPMK … [Read more...]
