My favorite cozy spots!

-
Guys, I'll be honest- I'll all about that hygge life. I love being comfy, and nothing speaks to me more than cozying up on my corner of the couch with a fluffy blanket, my sweet lapdog and the fireplace going. I have a couple corners of my home that speak to me on a hygge level and truly embody the picture of cozy living.

My living room: I love this little corner of our home! It houses my 2 favorite corners of the couches, and is illuminated by a soft light lamp with lots of options for blankets and pillows. This is where I do all my blog writing, reading, and cuddling with my sweet family.

My office (AKA my "woman cave"): I was on a SERIOUS hunt for a chair that would fit this corner perfectly. I found it at IKEA and I'm basically obsessed with it. It's comfy but also modern and I love that it rocks. I had to get the ottoman for the ultimate comfort when curling up with a good book. The chair is right next to all my books so I have easy access to alllll the reads.

This cute corner of my living room: this is both a functional and decorative space. The wicker trunk houses all of our extra blankets, and the white fuzzy blanket adds the perfect touch of cozy. Hubby hates throw pillows on the couch, so this is my way to sneak them in my decor.

I hope you enjoyed a small tour of my fave cozy spots! What are your favorite comfy locations in your home? I'd love to know.

Friday Favorites! A hodge podge of random things

The other day I was going through Goodreads, picking out books I wanted to add to my library wishlist (I always say, searching for books is a completely separate hobby from reading, lol!). I came across Fredrick Bachman's newest release,  Anxious People . I always look at the quotes page to see if I vibe with the author's writing style. Man, does this book have some nuggets of wisdom! There are so many poignant quotes. This one resonated with me, just thinking about how overwhelming life can get when all those little things pile up: "Because the terrible thing about becoming an adult is being forced to realize that absolutely nobody cares about us, we have to deal with everything ourselves now, find out how the whole world works. Work and pay bills, use dental floss and get to meetings on time, stand in line and fill out forms, come to grips with cables and put furniture together, change tires on the car and charge the phone and switch the coffee machine off and not forget

coffee chat

If you and I had coffee, we would likely get a table outside. Mask mandates have been lifted here, so we would be able to feel a bit "normal" while sitting at a coffee shop with our drinks. I would probably put way too much creamer or syrup in my coffee, and you'd tease me and ask if I want some coffee with my cream. I'd roll my eyes but laugh because you're right. I love me a good indulgent coffee. It's the one "unhealthy" thing I won't budge on.  We would catch up, since it's probably been a really long time since we have gotten together in person. We'd agree that while facetime/ Zoom chats were an okay substitute, nothing compares to face-to-face girl time.  I'd tell you about how the weight on my shoulders feels a bit less "heavy" even though every now and again there are still some really dark days. I would admit that though they don't come as frequently anymore, they do come out of the blue. I'd talk about how

This week's favorites

Hello Friday, we meet again! Man am I glad it's the weekend. Let's talk favorites, shall we?  My meal plan this week has been one of my favorites so far. It was super delicious and had really easy recipes! This week's lineup was: tacos, beef stir fry, chicken and broccoli casserole, homemade pizza, teriyaki chicken and veggies, and fajitas. I love that the meals we chose had only a few, really simple ingredients that are pantry staples, which made my grocery bill very reasonable. I also tried out a new recipe this week- slow cooker chicken and stuffing and it was so delicious. I made it for myself when Val went out for guys' night- he doesn't eat stuffing so I took advantage of him being out of the house haha. Speaking of meal plans, I purchased a meal planning kit from Passionate Penny Pincher . It comes with 12 weeks of recipes, 72 meal cards, reusable grocery lists, some blank recipe cards, and a recipe box. It was on sale and I think it will be a worthwhile inv
