My list contains my favorites from my life. Books, makeup, and essential oils oh my! Grab a cup of tea and lets start the list.

Raising Bottle Fed Calves
Here is how my first week went with raising bottle fed calves. It has been an adventure, but there is a lot of fun with raising bottle fed calves. How it Started Last Friday my husband came home and told me that our local dairy had bull calves for sale and that they needed good homes. I have been wanting calves forever! However, we didn’t have any cow to nurse them so we would have to bottle feed. He told me that we would have to bottle feed them. Being the animal lover that I am, I said that was perfectly fine. However, we needed to feed them in the…

Reading The Bullet Journal Method By: Ryder Carroll
A Little Back Story I started my very first bullet journal in 2016. My love of planners and calendars since I was little had me always looking forward to getting a new planner to start the year! While searching Pinterest and looking at planners and DIY planners one night, I came across something called the Bullet Journal. I had never heard of it and I was instantly curious. Between Pinterest and YouTube I saw so many tutorials and ways to set up my Bullet Journal. The ease and flexibility was just mind blowing and I instantly ordered a dot journal on Amazon and anxiously waited for it to arrive. In…

My Favorite Grove Collaborative Products
I have been living in a rural area for two years and before that, I lived in another rural area for three years. We have some local stores, but no Target or TJ Maxx to find the products I love. I like to use more natural, plant-based products to clean with. Bleach irritates my throat when I smell it, so we don’t use it in our house. Products like Method and Mrs. Meyer’s are what I use. These are pretty popular brands, however, they couldn’t be found at my local store. Enter, YouTube! I’m an avid YouTube watcher, (hello cleaning videos) and one YouTuber I was watching said something…

Cook at Home
My Story Now, I don’t cook every single night, but pretty darn close! I enjoy cooking, so if you don’t you might be thinking I’m crazy! I like cooking, saving money, and staying in! These reasons help keep me motivated to cook every night. See, I grew up eating at home almost every night and so did my husband. While we were dating and after we got married, we both liked the idea of eating at home most nights. Now, I didn’t grow up eating everything homemade like The Pioneer Woman, but I did eat at home. I feel like eating at home is kind…
