Happy Monday and Happy Memorial Day! This is a wonderful day to give thanks to all those who serve or have served in the military. A BIG THANK YOU! Both of my Grandfathers served in the military and sacrificed much to keep our country safe. (I can’t even imagine how my grandmothers worried when they […]
Taste Test Tuesday– Chocolate Souffle vs. Chocolate Molten Lava Cake
It’s a great day. Not only is it Taste Test Tuesday, but my Dad is here for a visit! I knew that there needed to be CHOCOLATE for him. And he agreed to be a taste test panelist. (I may have gotten my love for taste tests partially from my Dad…we have been doing taste […]
Dose of Sunshine Monday — Believe something wonderful
It’s Monday. Not only that, but something wonderful is about to happen! Yes, for you. Do you believe it? If you believe, then something wonderful WILL happen! This is one of my favorite sayings and I had to make a printable of it. It’s a nice little reminder of how to live. Wouldn’t you rather […]

It’s Monday ALREADY! The weekend seemed to fly by and now it’s time for a fresh new week. Well, I have to admit, today I woke up thinking of all the things that had to be done this week and it was exhausting just thinking of it. Ever have thoughts like that? So then another […]

Happy Monday! Today, I will leave you with one simple idea: If you have a choice, choose to be happy. I am working on this at times there are things that bother me, but I remind myself that I do have a choice! And I can choose to continue to worry, or I can choose […]
Dose of Sunshine Monday — Inspiration comes
Happy Monday! I hope your weekend was filled with inspiration. I had a fantastic weekend learning and growing and networking at Bloggy Boot Camp in Phoenix. I was inspired so much and now I have so many new ideas! (Now which to start first?) I spent Sunday unwinding and thinking…and enjoying the garden. Look at […]
Dose of Sunshine Monday — Joy comes in the morning!
This weekend I was reminded that there is always an end to suffering. A season and a time for everything. And I was reminded to stand strong until additional inspiration comes! I love that thought…and I love that there is inspiration around us everywhere! (we have only to open our eyes to see it). My […]

Here is my chalkboard rendition for Easter Hope: {To see my other Easter printables in spring colors, click here.} I hope your Easter is filled with hope, […]
