TGIF everyone! I wanted to venture a little off-topic today with some fashion. Having recently discovered that spandex shorts under skirts is the most comfortable (and still lady-like) attire for working with children, my skirt collection has grown two-fold. Not just short skirts, but long skirts. I never thought I could pull off long skirts, but with all the compliments I’ve been getting lately I must be doing something right. They can be dressed up or dressed down. Here in Texas it’s still a little hot for these long skirts, but I am so eager for Fall that I don’t care. Not one bit. I found this particular skirt on the clearance rack at Nordstrom Rack. They had it in 3 other patterns and I’m so tempted to go back, but don’t want to go skirt crazy and ruin a good thing. I heard the 70′s may be coming back this Fall, I’m just one step ahead of the game. Goofy is so fashion forward.
I hope this Friday finds you fashionable. Now enjoy the weekly recap!

Hello! My name is Karen, I’m 26 and currently live in Austin, Texas with my husband. When I’m not working as a nanny, you can usually find me in the kitchen. This blog is where I share my love of cooking, nutrition, and domestication. I'll share my favorite recipes, how-to-photos, and any tips and tricks I pick-up along the way. I hope this blog inspires others to spend more time in the kitchen cooking delicious food. While I strive for optimal nutrition, I also love to bake. I've recently got gluten free and dairy free, as well as refocused my diet on mostly plant based nutrients with high-quality meats for protein. I hope this blog inspires others to get back into the kitchen.
