Let’s just go ahead and get this out of the way: Dining at Primo is an experience. We recently celebrated eight years of wedded bliss, and decided that dining at Bruce Boggartz’s newest endeavor would be worth an anniversary dinner. Fun anecdote before we begin: Bruce used to work with my Dad way back when…
A Realistic Fireplace Makeover: Part I
This will be a two part series about how we made over our fireplace. But first, I’m going to divulge the secrets that other bloggers and any show on HGTV or DIY network leave out. Doing house projects suck. They aren’t always easy, and they NEVER go according to plan. Both of us have full time jobs. We…
Banana Bread Pancakes
Mastering the art of the pancake; I mean, what makes a good one? Sometimes you want thin & crispy flapjacks, which, in that regard, Nadia G’s Cornmeal Pancakes have no equal. However, a pancake to me means thick, fluffy, and obscene. They are a decadent meal. You’re basically eating griddled cake batter for breakfast. Over…
Short legs & big hearts : Life with corgis

Good ol’ Rocky Top (Hey!)
What makes Knoxville so great? Aside from actually getting to experience all 4 seasons, we are also the gateway to the Smoky Mountains. The most visited National Park in the U.S.A. It’s not even a close race. In 2014 GSMNP boasted 10.1 million visitors, dwarfing the Grand Canyon in 2nd place with 4.7 million. But…
K&R Asian Adventure : check Angkor Wat off the bucket list…
Again with the selfie! (courtesy of Kara’s iPhone) So, here we are. The grand-mac-daddy of posts. The main reason we went to Cambodia was to explore Angkor Wat & surrounding temples. The history buff in me was WAY excited. After our day in Siem Reap and exploring Treak Village, Kara & I opted to head…
