Top Two $10ish Wines from Hi-Time Wine Club

Hi-Time Wine Cellars has a little-known around-$10/bottle wine club, featuring two wines per month (they also have the option for an around-$25/bottle wine club too). It’s neat because it’s a low price point, you can always buy what you liked again, and they include almost a page of notes on each wine, not just tasting…

Teams | Feel Good Friday 102017

Teams … many of mine are sports, unofficial or official, but these are also life teams. I’m so grateful for the teams I’m a part of—the ones pictured, the badass working women I know, my actual team at work, my old team at work, the team that’s gonna raise my marriage certificate trio’s baby as…

Denali | Feel Good Friday 111116

Who rescued who? Denali was sick this week—and that turned me into a crazy hypochondriac mom who was certain she had cancer—but she is on the mend and healthy and I am so incredibly grateful.

#BestSpuds | Feel Good Friday 121115

The Best Spuds were reunited this weekend, and what a weekend it was! (refresher: Idaho, part 1 and Idaho part 2) Apparently, it was such a a weekend that we never managed to take even one photo of the five of us. The most there is in any one photo appears to be four. So here’s…
