Books by Comedians

I think I like the weirdest, eclectic mix of shows and podcasts … until I talk to my friends and realize other people like the same kind of weird mix. One day I’m binging on true crime podcasts or Netflix documentaries, then the next day I’m binging on comedian stand-up specials. My taste in books […]

Tween & Teen Books

I had a major mom-fail moment at Christmas. My girls always write “books” on every wish list for Christmas and birthdays. Sometimes they know what books they want and sometimes they just say “books” and I’m supposed to figure it out. This Christmas, my kids didn’t ask for very much, so I tried to at […]

How To Paint Trim Like a Boss

Is your “white” trim actually white? Before we moved into this house, I thought the trim was white. Then, we discovered the leaking washing machine three weeks after moving in and reconstruction started. During all the repairs, new baseboards needed to be painted. That’s when I figured out the current baseboards were more pink than […]
