I like feet. Little ones, to be exact. Especially when stocking covered or cowgirl boot clad, and in mid swing. That’s when I love feet. {and thus, I become said foot photographer} But my feet. They’re a whole ‘nother story. You see, I have this adorable pair of ribbon-covered ballet flats that I acquired on […]
Brigadeiro {yum yum}
I was thinking about one of my younger sisters. I’ve got three words for you… easy. decadent. gorgeous. What more could you possibly want in life? I mean seriously. What was I saying? Oh, yes. I’ve been thinking about my sis…and the gorgeous little balls of chocolatey deliciousness she brought to our older sister’s baby […]
Looking Ahead: The {not so} Nutshell Version
I interrupt your regularly scheduled post to bring you this scintillating collection of “what’s on the horizon” blips from my oh-so-exciting life: * I have discovered 2 interesting things about myself over the past 86 days. 1. I function well under strict food “law”… Some sugar = never works. After all, “some” is relative. […]
Make Love, Amidst War
Marriage is a divine conspiracy. God takes two outrageously different people – from gender, background & upbringing, strengths & weaknesses, to likes & dislikes, personality & temperament – and throws them together in a magnificently wild adventure; a “love story set in the midst of war”. “Our mutual brokenness plays off each other so perfectly […]

15 {Potentially Awkward} Things…
You probably don’t know about me. {and quite possibly, don’t want to} I think sweaty feet smell like buttered popcorn {which, needless to say, I don’t care for}, and belly-button “jam”, like parmesan cheese {which, disturbingly enough, I do enjoy}. I really want a tattoo. I’m just far too chicken to go through […]

Happy Sunday!
Identity Crisis: Averted
I didn’t realize how much of my identity and value was wrapped up in this little green booklet thingie. I had no clue that my unspoken claim to fame was simply getting to be different from the majority of the crowd. I don’t look different. I’ve almost completely lost my accent. But I feel a […]
Hearty ‘Tater Soup
As you may recall, we have an awful lot of spuds around here. Two studs. Lots of spuds. So it’s only natural that a soup lovin’ girl throws them in a pot and makes comfort food from a bunch of ‘em, right? I thought so. Besides, anything with bacon is comfort food. Oh, and cream […]
Paint Love
It astounds me how easily we become inward focused. Comfortable. Yet discontented. We forget, amidst the whirlwind of our daily commitments and selfish ambition, the needs of the hurting world around us. Blind to the little lives fighting for life, hungry for love, all around us. The lovely {in}courage, a branch of Dayspring {a community […]
