There are a few things we don’t have in Kansas… the ocean, The Kardashian’s and good avocados. Of those three I believe a big thank goodness is in order for the lack of Kardashian sisters. I do, however, wish I was a hop, skip and a jump away from an ocean/beach and I wish I [...]

Yo! What’s for Breakfast? {Recipe: Homemade Strawberry Milk}
This is part of a series of posts on National Dairy Month written in partnership with Got Milk and The Breakfast Project. So, I may be letting this whole “assign the kids to make breakfast” thing go to my head some. I mean, it is really nice to have the tables turned for once. Instead of [...]

The Power of Referrals
I created a resume for my post-college job search… 20 years later, that is the only resume for myself I’ve ever created.

Word [...]

Friends, Let’s Get Carded with Hallmark
Today, I want to tell you about a few of my friends. You see, I have some pretty incredible people in my life… people I probably don’t express my appreciation for nearly enough. Friends who, when I questioned true friendship, proved to me in many ways I just wasn’t looking hard enough. So, today, [...]
