Smartwool Socks
As a kid and young adult, the thought of giving or receiving socks as gifts made me want to vomit. Lame. I’m in my 30’s now and I’ve officially changed my stance because of one, specific brand… Smartwool. Smartwool socks are high-quality socks made of Merino wool. Merino wool is not traditional wool. It’s much […]

Sympathy Cookie Cake
There are entire businesses built around giving cookie cakes to celebrate special occasions. I remembers as a tween when I suddenly became too cool for a birthday cake.

Buddha Board Enso Infinite Art
It’s rare to come across something that you’ve never seen before or experienced anything like it. The Buddha Board Enso definitely caught my eye! Imagine drawing, painting and writing on a board with a water brush and creating images with a rich, inky Japanese look. As the water slowly evaporates, your art will magically disappear […]

Grandparents & Grandchildren Photo Session
There’s nothing like going to visit Mimi and Papi! When I tell my kids I’m taking them to their grandparents house, they whoop and jump around as if I’ve just told them I’m taking them to Disney World.
