Plants contain an immeasurable amount of healing properties, some that we’ve not yet unlocked. Since a young age, I’ve had a particular interest in herbal and homeopathic medicine. It just seems, for lack of a better word, natural. My father occasionally talks about his youth, when plants, barks, and herbs were the only readily available medical treatment. Don’t misinterpret my feelings toward modern medicine; … Continue reading Plants For Pain
I hope everyone had a lovely Valentine’s Day. I enjoy the day, mostly because of the candy and festive colors, but love has always been in the details. While my photographs don’t focus on love, I did concentrate on several detail shots. Sometimes the smallest things can be the most fascinating. “Mushrooms” … Continue reading In the Details
Can I tell you a secret? I don’t really like blueberries. I mean, I’ll eat them with yogurt and granola, but they’re just not my favorite. That is until I made this pie. I’ve made this Blue Ribbon Blueberry Pie for countless events and work functions, and I always get rave reviews. It’s even won a few ribbons! The slightly sweet buttery crust and the … Continue reading Delectable Blueberry Pie
Is it just me, or is anyone else wondering how we’re twelve days into February? The older I get, the quicker time passes. Strange, isn’t it? I think that’s just another reason why we should spend as much time as possible with family and friends. “Stuff” is not the important thing in life but using good products will make life easier! I’m all about that! … Continue reading My Weekly Top 5 – February 4, 2018
It’s been raining heavily since I woke up this morning. It seems fitting since these photos mainly focus on water. I love rainy days. They’re great for napping and reading a good book. My parents used to own a cabin on Lake Cumberland, and there was nothing more relaxing than the sound of rain falling on the tin roof. I hope you have a tranquil … Continue reading Water Focus
I don’t know about you, but some days I just wake up tired. Today is one of those days. Outside, the temperature is below freezing, and the sky is overcast. I’m no psychic, but all of these factors combined likely mean a nap will be in my near future. If you enjoy naps (consider me confused if you don’t), I hope you find … Continue reading The Ruins in the Wood
Interested in Curology? Recently, there’s been an influx of Facebook and Instagram ads promoting the company. Curology is a company that connects you with a licensed dermatologist to create a customized prescription skincare treatment. The personalized prescription is targeted toward treating acne. A few months ago, I discovered the company while browsing an online beauty blog. What drew me in, was the promise of a … Continue reading Curology – Does It Really Work?
I’m not sure how I feel about surprises. You could say that I am somewhat undecided. I’m still waiting for my husband to jet me away on a surprise romantic vacation. I think I will be waiting for a while. Either way, it’s safe to say, I’ve had a complicated relationship with surprises. About a year ago, my husband and I were standing in the … Continue reading Quickly Dealing with Pesky Surprises – Blemishes
I hope everyone is having a good day! I find that nature is soothing to the soul. I know that Mondays are often busy so you may not be able to go for a relaxing walk. This could be the next best thing. Follow along on my quiet walk around the farm. … Continue reading The Farm

I wasn’t planning on posting today (I like lazy Saturdays), however, I decided to upload a few photos. The last photography post I made was quite popular, so I thought I would share a few more images. Continue reading Lazy Saturday
