This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Whitney Farms for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. If you've been reading my blog for long, you know that I have somewhat of a black thumb. Yes, I can even manage to kill zucchini plants. And my house plants always look pathetic. I [...]

I mentioned last week that none of the rooms in my house are 100% finished. I am trying to remedy that. My living room is almost completely decorated. I just need to put together some vignettes on my tables, and put actual pictures in the frames hanging on the wall. (Don't laugh. Empty frames are [...]

Kitchen-still not done. Remember our deck that we tore down and started over last summer? Oh wait, you don't remember. If [...]
