Entertaining in our home made easy. Discussing things like birthday parties, anniversaries and everything in between.
In Louisiana we got the official word on Monday that we will be under a stay home order until May 15th. This means that once again we will be celebrating a holiday at home.

Strawberry season in Louisiana is one of the best things about living in the south. Hands down Ponchatoula Strawberries are the best.

It’s hot and humid and there are limited places to host a party that are not going to be scorching. The last few years… Continue reading The Bigs 5th and 6th Mad Science Birthday Party
Each month I have a standing day date with two of my friends for Coffee and Perspective. It’s been such a great experience for all of us since we started doing it in the early fall. We share a lot of similar beliefs on raising kids, politics and so on so it is a great… Continue reading Soup Season – Coffee and Perspective
