We've been making a lot of bowls lately, and this Teriyaki Chicken recipe has been one of our favorites. It's incredibly easy, and George will eat it too — so it saves us extra time in the kitchen preparing meals. Win-win!
If you've been curious about the Always Pan I did a formal review in this post, but it's on sale for Black Friday and under $100 with code SUPERSALE (which makes it the lowest price of the year). I have two and highly recommend — you won't regret it! ...
2020 Gift Guide for Kids
This has got to be one of the sweetest gift guides to curate so I hope y'all enjoy my picks for kids. Since George is a year and a half, I mainly stuck to that age but I'm also including presents for babies and older toddlers. After being a teacher, I can't help but to include a couple educational items, and you know I *try* to keep things somewhat neutral around our home. Whether shopping for a niece, nephew, a friend's child or your own, lots of cute stuff included!
If you missed them, I've also shared my For Parents & In-Laws, For Her and For Him Guides. Happy shopping!

Thanksgiving Tablescape Decor
I cannot believe we're two weeks out from Thanksgiving as I write this. Well actually, 2020 has felt prettyyyy long at the same time, ha! Anyways, one of my favorite parts of home decor is table styling. I love turning on some music, grabbing a cup of coffee or wine, and bringing my tablescape vision to life - especially around the holidays. ...
5 Casual Thanksgiving Day Outfits
I don't know about you guys, but I always keep it really casual on Thanksgiving. Even when we've had larger celebrations, I prefer to be comfortable with so much cooking, lounging, and let's be real...eating. If you like to dress up I may not be your girl, but for those of you who also stay pretty casual, this post is for you. Keep scrolling for a few low-key Thanksgiving Day outfits. ...
2020 Gift Guide: Parents & In-Laws
I don't know about you guys, but parents and in-laws are always one of the hardest gifts to shop for me. They usually buy themselves what they need and at the same time, you feel like nothing you give them will ever be *enough*, right? And while I'm lucky to be very close with my in-laws, I know that can be another tricky decision.
With that, I usually go about these gifts by treating them or elevating something they already have. A nice pan (code TEACHERDIVA10) they'll have for life, a bath caddy for the MIL who loves to soak, or a lux throw are always good ideas. If someone is extremely hard to shop for, gifting them something unique like this Olive Oil Gift Set can be fun! That way, you know you aren't giving them something they already have. ...
Trend Alert: The Shacket
The oversized shirt jacket (aka: shacket) has probably been all over your Instagram feed and for good reason. This easy-to-wear style is perfect for your fall layering outfits. Often seen in plaid or buffalo check, this is fall's most sought-after outerwear. ...
2020 Gift Guide: For Him
Alright ladies, earlier this week I shared my For Her Gift Guide, and today we're turning to the guys. I know men, in general, can be really hard to shop for so I like to keep things pretty simple. Austin is always happy with basics (like this hoodie), a toy or gadget, and something he gets a good laugh from (like this mug). Depending on whether you're shopping for a spouse, dad, brother, or friend, I hope you find something that works! ...
5 Aesthetically-Pleasing Decor Hacks
Ever since sharing my kitchen sink tray a while back, I've gotten a few questions on other "hacks" I have around the house. To be honest, I had never really thought of the kitchen situation as a hack, but I guess it is! When decorating, I always try to find ways to make eyesores a bit more appealing - all while keeping in mind functionality. And while it's not always achieved; believe me, I have those closets stuffed with things too, I do my best! ...
2020 Gift Guide: FOR HER
Today's Gift Guide is all about the women in your life (you included!). Whether you need to shop for your mom, sister, best friend, nanny, or to start your own wish list, there's something for everyone below. ...
10 Before 10:00 AM: My Morning Routine
I don't know what it is about knowing people's morning routines, but I love reading about them. And recently I read about 10 things to be more productive in the morning and was really intrigued by that process. Whenever a fellow blogger, or even a friend, shares what they do to get ready for the day, I'm all ears. We all do things a little differently and I think there's something to take away from all the various routines people have - don't you think? ...
