I thought I’d throw together a quick tour of some of the holiday decorations around our home before Christmas day gets here. I love to keep my decorations simple, traditional, but with lots of sparkle. I love gold and silver holiday decor and anything that sparkles, so my larger tree downstairs is adorned with shiney…
A Very Frozen Party
My niece, Arabella, celebrated her 4th birthday in serious style at the end of August. My step-mom and sister threw together what is surely one of the greatest Frozen themed parties of the year complete with Anna and Elsa live in person for story-time, princess lessons, and a Princess coronation for the birthday girl.The birthday…
Memorial Day Weekend & A Bean Salad
We spent part of Memorial Day weekend at Watts Bar Lake with my family where my dad and step-mom live. It was a beautiful day with perfect weather, except still a bit too cool to go for a swim. But we could go for a boat ride! My dad took my sister, nieces, and us out for…

Knoxville’s 4th Annual Biscuit Fest
So the official name is the International Biscuit Festival because our little city is proud of the fact that people come from all over to celebrate a staple of southern comfort food – the biscuit. It really is a week long affair – there is a southern food writing conference, Blackberry Farm biscuit brunch, Biscuit Bash, Biscuit…
What We’ve Been Up To Lately
