Lately

I have been trying to take a few minutes every day for me time. Whether it is painting my nails, exercising, running to the store or reading a couple chapters on my Kindle, it makes my day so much better. Even 15 minutes can make such a difference.

I just finished reading 'Room' by Emma Donoghue. It was a quick and easy read and I could not put it down. I highly recommend this book.



I am loving chicken salad lately. I make a big batch and eat it on a bagel or with crackers for lunch. Yummy and quick.



Josh found me some Strawberry Abita while traveling this past weekend. I can not find it anywhere here in town, so I was excited. Definitely worth the wait.



I don't know if it is the heat or what, but D's skin has broken out in a rash all of sudden. We found some all-natural eczema care cream by BabyGanics that has seemed to help a little. I am anxious to ask his ped about it at his appt. in a few days.





I can't believe that tomorrow brings the month of August! I am so over this 100+ weather and glad we are inching towards fall.

  1. I needed a book recommendation - thank you! We have had every rash imagineable here at Rash Central. It got to that point that the rash had to be around for at least a month before I'd see a doctor. Signed, The Bad Mom

    1. Ha, Marianne! It just so happens that his 9 month checkup falls right around when this rash started or I'm sure it would have been a month for him too. :p

  2. Would you mind posting your recipe for chicken salad? I love it and need a good recipe for it! I hope the rash goes away. We use the same cream on our Savannah when she has eczema flare ups and it really helps. I do wish it smelled better, though! Ha!
