This speaker has a longgg name- the Altec Lansing BoomJacket Jolt Portable Bluetooth Speaker. But in short- this thing is rad. I am so scatterbrained these days- especially because Eloise apparently can crawl like the wind & REALLY wants to walk. We’re going from room to room & I am killing my phone battery along the way. Disney songs. So many Disney songs. & this has been a lifesaver….

Isle of Dogs Pet Care Review
It has been awhile since I posted about pet items! For those that don’t know- we lost our beauty boxer mix suddenly a few months ago & we were incredibly devastated. Still are.

I have five different things to discuss so keep reading! & see dog pictures of course!…
One Fur All Pet House Candle Mini Sampler Spring Mix Review
At one point- we had quite the collection of candles. & by that I mean..hoarding level. We had them for every season & snapped new ones up on random whims. Then I fell into research & what I found about the chemicals seriously freaked me out. Pretty much all of my candles got removed from the house & I swapped in better options. One Fur All candles happen to be an option & they’re meant for our dog-loving home! Keep reading to see the entire spring sampler & my favorites!…
I Finally Love my Car with the Invigorate Essential Oil Car Diffuser
If you’ve been following along with my household swaps- you’ve likely seen me reaching for more natural options. We’re not 100% anything- but I am trying to inform myself & become more aware of ingredients. One of the most impactful swaps I’ve made is diving into the essential oil pool. It has legitimately changed my life so I’m looking at more ways to use them & bring you guys even more ideas! One of the items I was really missing was a car deodorizer- especially since we have dogs & frequent the gym. The Invigorate Essential Oil Car Diffuser totally came at the right time!

Today I’m going to talk to you about the kitlife planner aka Keeping It Together Planner. & why I’ve owned one for three years straight!…

Looking for a cookbook that’ll take you through the year? That’s exactly what Nourishing Meals: 365 Whole Foods, Allergy-Free Recipes for Healing Your Family One Meal at a Time is designed for! What drew me to this concept actually wasn’t the “365” but the idea that these recipes are all allergy-free aka free of gluten, soy, eggs, dairy, & refined sugar. I was hoping this might give me more inspiration when cooking for large groups!…

Marked in Ink is the Ultimate Cool Coloring Book
What do you look for in a coloring book? Some people seek one that really reminds them of their childhood while others take the “adult” part pretty seriously! For me the Marked in Ink coloring book reminds me of being a teenager & all the tattoos I planned on getting. I’ve watched Megan Massacre on TV for quite some time & her tattoos are always beautiful. I only have three tattoos myself (teenage me just cringed) but now I can color a bunch!…

Every Little Thing: A Flat Vernacular Coloring Book by Payton Cosell Turner
Coloring books are all the rage- & I’ve been sucked in. I like patterns but I LOVE quirky. Every Little Thing is fabulously quirky & has lovely pictures often dealing with animals, plants, & 1980s inspired items. I love every single page- some have cats on cell phones while others have birds & junk food. What’s not to love about that? Keep reading to see inside!…
The Time Chamber is the Book You Didn’t Know You Needed
Coloring books are everywhere these days, have you noticed? Some are cheaply made but affordable while others are incredibly intricate & printed on heavy paper. There are plenty floating out there just for adults now as well & the “trend” is picking up speed. I’m actually an artistic soul & tend to freehand but sometimes when my brain is overworked I love to color within the lines. It gives me a reason to think more about colors & actually relax more than sketching. The Time Chamber by Daria Song is the most beautiful book I’ve ever had the honor of coloring in. I love everything about this little “fairy tale” (more on that in a minute!) & the fact that it doubles as an actual book you can read your children has me head over heels. Keep reading to check it out!…
I’m Wild for Phoenix Claws & Jade Trees
Let me start with- Thank you Kian Lam Kho! I am a huge fan of Chinese cuisine but since I don’t exactly have the family traditions…I always feel like I’m making takeout instead of something more traditional. Do I love takeout? Well I am not going to lie- yes! But I know there’s a vast food culture out there that I haven’t gotten my hands on. & I have big goals! I think I gave away the big “YES I LOVE THIS” part…but keep reading to see why Phoenix Claws and Jade Trees by Kian Lam Kho is so amazing!…
