So, we’ll just combine everything into one nice round-up of shenanigans and whatever else we’ve managed to get ourselves into.  How does that sound?

Long time, no side notes! Yet here we are in all our spring glory. But don’t worry, like many a previous Side Notes, I have a snow picture for you in this edition. Phew!

Charming, rustic Christmas display at Howell Tree Farm! | spiritedandthensome.com

Ooh, it’s that time of year when technically it’s still fall but Christmas is just around the corner. Which basically means winter is nearby, too.

WHAT WE’RE EATING: Currently, K-Hubs and I are face-deep in the two most recent recipes on the blog: Dairy-Free Eggnog Cranberry ... continue reading...
