Winter Reading List
Christmas break, gingerbread houses, frosty windows, crackling fires, soft blankets, and a winter reading list. Tis the season for curling up in a cozy armchair with a good book! This past month, I’ve been scouring my book shelves to try and bring together a list…
Holiday Hand Scrubs
This Christmas season, I’m trying my hand at some homemade gifts in an effort to save money (also, who doesn’t like a homemade gift??). I don’t know about you, but during fall and winter, I am 100% here for all things pumpkin spice and cinnamon.…
Pumpkin Pie French Toast
I’m pretty sure this is the best way to cook french toast (but I may be biased toward all things pumpkin). It’s perfect for Thanksgiving morning before the frenzied baking and cooking starts. Growing up, my dad always experimented with different fruits and flavors in…

Fall Reading List
There’s never a bad time to read a book – at least in my opinion. However, there’s something about the chilly weather, changing leaves, and the smell of spices in the air that makes me want to curl up with a good book. During autumn’s…
The Isle of Skye in One Day
The Isle of Skye is a magical little island filled with jaw dropping vistas and craggy peaks. It’s one of those places where you expect to see fairies peeking at you from behind a tree. The raw, wildness of the land quite takes your breath…
