Recently, I was rereading my 2019 goals for this year and paused to reflect on my health goal this year -- "Fuel my body with good food and strengthen myself, physically and mentally." I don't know about you, but I hate to admit that I think I've fallen a bit off the wagon on this goal … Continue reading 8 Ways to Maintain a Healthy Lifestyle
Last year, I shared how my love for reading lead me to create a list of books to read that year. I had realized that since college, I had hardly read any books at all, which I missed as it was one of my favorite ways to relax. Even though I didn't finish all of … Continue reading 2019 Reading List
Happy Spring, y'all! I woke up this morning feeling like I had crossed the finish line of a monumental feat -- it's March 20. I made it through winter and spring is finally here. And all the birds chirped Hallelujah! Even though we had a mild winter this year, it was still obnoxiously cold and … Continue reading 8 Ways to Welcome Spring
Earlier this fall, Jody and I were talking about how we hadn't hosted our friends in our apartment recently. We've had so much fun in the past at our Cozy Housewarming and Cinco de Mayo parties and decided it was time to host our friends again before the end of the year. Knowing that the … Continue reading Channel the Flannel Party Recap
Happy Halloween y'all!! I'm not a huge Halloween fan, but I do like any reason to celebrate! After Jody and I first got married, we made a deal that if I watch 31 days of Halloween movies with him, he has to watch Christmas movies with me (including Hallmark!). We wanted to share in the … Continue reading Get Your Spook On

We are only going on week two of summertime in the Cox household since returning from our Italian getaway last Monday and it's already the second week in July! In fact, I saw that … Continue reading Summer Fun List
Last weekend, Jody and I spent part of our weekend camping at a state park for the first time together. I had gone camping with my family when I was little, but it has been years since we've been so admittedly, I was a little nervous about how this was going to go. We aren't the … Continue reading Camping Weekend
About a week ago, we had our first taste of summer with two days of temperatures in the 80's. After originally planning to go hiking that weekend, Jody and I decided to head to the beach instead to enjoy an afternoon in the sun. Knowing that the breeze off the ocean would still be cool, … Continue reading Saturday Strolls
Despite the fact that this time last week, on the first day of spring, we were anticipating a snow storm, spring is officially here. I don't think I have ever been more ready for spring than I was this year. I live for the sunshine and the warmth so the past few months have drug … Continue reading Spring Bucket List
One of the things I have really enjoyed over the past year is discovering new recipes. As much as I love some of my staple go-to's (ahem, quiche), planning for new recipes keeps dinners interesting and keeps us out of the rut of eating the same things week to week. I think a little bit … Continue reading February’s New Recipes
