    9 Ways to Break Through a Creative Plateau

    Uncategorized

    If you consider yourself a “creative” (a term I kind of hate using because aren’t we all creative in some way? Also it just brings to mind imagery of every smug “creative” type I’ve ever known and puts a bad taste in my mouth which is admittedly my own baggage but maybe you relate? This intro is already too long), then maybe you’ve gone through a slump.

    A plateau.

    A period of days or weeks or months (hi.) or even years (hello!) when your brain and heart just didn’t combine forces to do the thing you ...

    Body Positivity During Weight Loss

    Why Weight loss?

    I mentioned over in this post that Justin and I started Weight Watchers at the beginning of the year, and then kind of breeeeezed on past that to talking about cooking. Which might have led to some of you wondering why I, a self-proclaimed body-positive and very opinioned anti-diet-culture blogger would join such a traditional…well…diet.

    I wish the answer was deep and complicated.

    That I had discovered some sort of hidden meaning in the Weight Watchers philosophy and it was actually NOT a diet, but a lesson in body-positivity!

    It’s ...

    One year ago

    Lifestyle

    One year ago, we were getting ready for one of the biggest, most important days we’d ever experience. 

    We were running last minute errands. I was trying desperately to track down a flower comb that was stuck in customs in Queens. We were both a little curious about where our wedding bands actually were in the world. 

    We were still back and forth. Tearing up the interstate between Charleston and Florence.

    You sent flowers to my office even though that was expressly against the rules, so I bought you that shirt you wanted ...

    The 6 Things I’ve Worn a Million Times

    Uncategorized

    When it comes to most things, but especially clothes, I am a creature of habit. I have a closet absolutely FULL of stuff (despite all of my attempts at NOT having a closet full of stuff…Marie Kondo, help!) and I still gravitate to a handful of pieces that I absolutely wear out and then buy again. 

    Please tell me we all do this. 

    While I attempt to step outside of that comfort zone and branch out and use the other pieces of my wardrobe…I always come back to these. 

    Here are the 6 things I’ve worn a million times (at ...

    Do You Cook?

    Uncategorized

    The hubs and I joined Weight Watchers at the beginning of the year, (more on that later), around the same time we started trying to stick to a budget, and a funny thing has been happening. 

    We started avoiding restaurants like the plague.

    Makes sense, right? Restaurants are expensive, and total calorie bombs.

    Here’s the thing though – we’ve always been restaurant people. Like, dining out was a full-blown hobby. Maybe even more than a hobby. It was a way of life. There was no sit-down chain that was exempt. Drive-thrus ...
