Savoring the Sweetest Parts of Life
SITS is an online community where female bloggers have the opportunity to connect with one another and share their stories. If you are a new blogger, I highly recommend visiting their site and signing up. It’s a great way to meet other awesome women out there and build your fan base. If you are a brand new visitor to S&S Life today–welcome! I am so happy that you’re here, and hope that you’ll hang out a while. My name is {Read More}
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}
I recently have been lucky enough to be nominated for a couple blog awards, One Lovely Blog Award by the always lovely Janey Lambert and the Liebster Blog Award by a new bloggy friend (and fellow SITS-ah), Cluttered Genius. Since I am lazy, and the nomination “requirements” are similar, I’m going to pull a Janey and combine the two. I don’t know who ever actually wins these different blog awards, but I think they’re a great way to connect with {Read More}
You know that feeling where your head is just above water, and you’re gasping for air but at the same time you’re also trying to tread water so you don’t drown? Yeah. Redesigning a blog can feel a lot like that, especially if you don’t have a kinda-sorta-almost-understanding of HTML code or are clueless when asked about your CSS Stylesheet. This is me, a soul who has been in your shoes, telling you to relax and stop fighting the water. {Read More}
I have a lovely blogger friend named Janey who hails from the United Kingdom. Last summer we met through a blog we both follow and participated in a CD Swap! It was a fun little project where everyone who wanted to participate commented on one post and was then matched up with another person. Somehow, Janey and I were put together, and it’s been one of my favorite things to ever happen via the internet. For our first swap, we {Read More}
This is my most favorite picture of my little sister, Janie. Coincidentally, Janie turned nineteen today. In this picture she was five, I think. Yes, five. This was before she started kindergarten, before she turned six, before she was diagnosed with a medullablastoma brain tumor the size of a lemon growing at the base of her cerebellum. Before everything in not only my life changed, but my whole family changed. A family friend snapped this picture of Janie, and like {Read More}
My dad is a self-proclaimed dinosaur. He self-proclaims a lot of things about himself, in fact. Like how he was born 200 years too late. He likes old fashioned things, is at times repelled by the technology of today, and very stubborn. But, he’s my dad, and I love him unconditionally. When I say unconditionally, what I mean is that I don’t mind explaining to him over and over how to attach a document to an email. He’s just wired {Read More}
I read a quote once by Buddha that said, “Your problem is, you think you have time.” Lately I feel like I’ve been hitting a brick wall when it comes to building my new website for Sweet & Savory. Going from an auto-pilot kind of blog like WordPress.com to a WordPress.org self-hosted site is a big jump, and there are infinite more choices to make and things to do. I want it to look finished and put-together before presenting to {Read More}
…in with the new! Things are about to start changing here on our lil’ blog – get excited! I am so happy finally have the time (and vision) to up the ante on sweetsavoryblog.wordpress.com… What does that mean exactly? Well, for starters, a registered domain name, big-girl hosting and a whole new look! I will be working very hard over the next week or so to roll out our new blog. My hope is that it’s cleaner, easier to navigate, {Read More}
