High five, you're in first grade!

The school year has officially begun! My first graders are ready to learn and what a better way to start than with some finger painting and of course... Glitter!

Back to School

Out with the summer... In with the school year. I loved greeting my coworkers with these adorable cookies from a local grocery store, Heinen's. The cookies were a huge hit! Have a great school year!


Summer BBQ

Another lovely summer is coming to an end. What better way to end the season by having a BBQ with all of your best friends... And great food and drinks?

Crazy for Caprese!

I am absolutely crazy for caprese! I love it as salad, pizza, skewers... you name it! I found this awesome recipe for Caprese Phyllo Baskets. It's easy, fresh and healthy! Try making some at your next party! They make great appetizers!

I spy...

Is that a dog or an accent pillow?

Sunflowers and Sunshine!

Loving the sunflowers in a Makenzie Childs vase and my new "Rewined" candle. These candles are made out of old wine bottles. They tell you what kind of wine it was and what year-- a perfect gift for a Wine Nerd, like me!

One Tough Cookie!

This little pup is one "tough cookie!" Good thing he had his brother and a nice little "treat" to make him feel better!

Life is like a bowl of cherries...

Ahhh... Summers of a teacher...

Patio Life

Hard work pays off... After a lot of gardening and yard work this summer, I get to enjoy this with a nice glass of vino on a beautiful summer's eve.
