Saturday Adventures

Saturday Adventures | sweetandsavorylife.com

This past Saturday Shelton and I piddled around town and I took my camera. It had been a while since we got some shots of downtown Greenville (or as the city calls it, “Uptown”), and it’s definitely an interesting area. You can tell at one point it was very active, but unfortunately that is not the case these days. Of course, this means there are tons of murals that have become worn over time and also some generally weird stuff {Read More}

Things I will miss about working from home.

Doesn’t it seem like anyone who has the opportunity to work from home is living the dream? I still think this, and I have been working from home for the past eight months. As with anything, it’s got it’s advantages and disadvantages. I start my new job tomorrow (excitement!), but there are some things I will definitely miss about working from the apartment. 1. The ability to start my day however I want to. It’s nice going to bed each {Read More}

Instagram Photoboard

What on earth did we do before Instagram? It’s the perfect way to capture and share all of life’s little moments. For me that means delicious food, pretty things, and anything else that catches my eye. It’s like a time capsule of memories that takes up zero space, and with all the great Instagram printing services out there (my favorite is FoxGram!) it’s never been easier to order your snapshots and display them. Remember that post I did furrrever ago {Read More}

Sopapilla Cheesecake

This recipe is a favorite of mine, but I cannot take credit for it. I have been eating sopapilla cheesecake for many, many years (long before there were hundreds of posts about it, with even more Pinterest pins to follow) thanks to a dear family friend named Vance. Goodness. How do I sum up the amazing-ness that is Vance? Feels impossible. He’s just one of those people. If you’re lucky, you have a someone like this in your life. Many {Read More}

The times they are a-changin’

I have some exciting news: I got a new job! You are now looking at the new Marketing Specialist for Suddenlink. Pleased to meet you.

Create more. Hustle less.

A couple weeks ago, Shelton and I were coming home with a hot dinner in tow when I saw this. This is the entrance to our apartment complex, and for a while now I’ve been waiting for the water to be still and glass-like like this so that I could take a picture of the trees perfectly reflected. Sometimes you wait and wait and then when you least expect it, things just happen. When they finally do, you let your {Read More}

Cute Throw Pillow Applique DIY

Cute Throw Pillow Applique DIY | sweetandsavorylife.com

You know how I made that String Art a few weeks ago to spruce up our bedroom? Well, I didn’t stop there. For my second knitting project of the year, I decided that I wanted to knit a cover for a throw pillow. And since anchors are also a thing between Shelton and I, that seemed to be the obvious decoration choice. The great thing about this DIY is that it is totally customize-able to whatever you’re wanting – heck, you don’t {Read More}

Being Kind: 8 things I love about my body

8 things I love about myself | sweetandsavorylife.com

Lately I’ve really been taking seriously the art of loving myself. In my most recent health update, I almost didn’t go to bootcamp this morning., I realized the following: *I am not being as kind to myself as I should be. *Little choices make a big difference, if you let them all add up. *My perception of my body (and how I have thought it should look for a long time) is way off-kilter. I am learning to understand the {Read More}
