Life Update

Hey ya'll...long time no talk.

Life is fun...hard...shocking...full of turns!!!!! 

Last year we lost one of our cats (Bull Cat) to FIV...at the beginning of this year, we lost our second cat (Tom) to FIV. We were heartbroken about both. But what really hit us was our baby boy Zeus, our GSD. We had to put our baby boy down in September due to end-stage heart failure...he would have only been four years old on November 3rd. We saw the signs and refused to believe it and when we took him in, they confirmed our worst fears. So, my sweet Bailee Sue is an only fur child again. She turned 6 on November 5th!! Oh, don't let me forget...our sugar gliders, Bonnie & Clyde, had a baby...we named her Pearl. And we still have 6 snakes.

SO MUCH has happened since my last posts. We have moved out of East Nashville. Moved completely out of Nashville, actually. Took our behinds all the way back down to Columbia. And we couldn't be more happy here.

We are in the cutest house with so much character, original hardwood floors (1940), and it's BLUE concrete! I'll photo drop at the end of this post. We are so excited for Spring time so we can do some landscaping! We are still struggling financially. BUT...we've literally never been happier! And I think that will change soon.

I took a leap and started my CAKE business. Super happy about that. I'm not well known, so it's been hard getting orders. But I'm ok with that for now. I don't want to get too much business, too fast.

Charlotte Blake turned 9 MONTHS OLD on December 15th!!!! She started crawling a couple weeks before her 6 month mark. When I tell ya'll she is a mess, I mean it. She is all over the place. For the past few months or so she'd been standing herself up at the coffee table and ottoman and couch. Then she started walking back and forth in front of the couch while holding on to it...and then all of a sudden, ON her 9 month birth day...she took her first step!!! Grayson was walking at 10.5 months and we felt like that was early...but this...good lawd! I think she's just trying to keep up with brother! He is doing so well with having a sister, we are very proud of him. He has his moments, but for the most part, they're good!!

Anyway, I am rambling...but it was a little update, 

More posts coming soon and more often!

Instant Pot Chili!!

I was supposed to post this last night, but we all know how plans tend to work out when you have a newborn.  🤷🏻‍♀️ So, this instant pot chili is one of our favs! We discovered this recipe over 2 years ago when we started living in the camper! And we continue to make it! So easy and so good!! What you need: •1 lb ground beef (85/15 or 90/10) •1 large onion chopped •3 cloves of garlic finely chopped •1/4 cup chili powder •1 tablespoon cumin •1 tablespoon oregano •1 1/2 cups water •1 - 28oz can crushed tomatoes •4 cans mixed beans (we get the tri-blend beans - black, kidney, pinto) drained & rinsed! **optional: shredded cheese & corn chips What to do:  Turn your Instant Pot onto sauté mode. Put a little vegetable oil into your pot (I only use olive oil, so that’s fine, too). Add your onions and garlic and cook for a few minutes, until translucent. Once they’re nice and soft, add all of your seasonings and mix it all up. While that’s al...

Life Update

Life update, y’all. It’s been a WHILE since I’ve posted! Since the last post (since been deleted) I’ve not only QUIT my SeneGence side business...I’ve also birthed another human!! And purchased a few more animals. And bought quite a bit more makeup haha. Photo posted is of our newest edition: Charlotte Blake! Grayson is becoming such a good, new big brother!! It’s been a MAJOR change in his life, so we’ve had to do A LOT of adjusting. Continue to pray for us on that! We’ve been doing well, though! And I’m excited to start blogging again!

HUMP DAYYYY!!!!

Y’all...I’m sorry. My post went to drafts instead of public yesterday! Hey y’all. I’ve been missing for minute...oh no!! So, since I missed a day AND since all we had for dinner last night was yummy burgers and Alexia waffle fries...I’m posting about our Monday night dinner. There’s a pic on my Instagram already...so check that out! Alright, I found an awesome BBQ Pineapple Chicken Kabob recipe via Damn Delicious (obviously lol) and I tweaked it a bit. I don’t have skewers or a grill (ugh coming soon!) so I made a sheet pan dinner out of it! I failed to read the whole recipe before I started, so I didn’t get to marinate my chicken for 2-8 hours as suggested. That’s alright, because I ended up just pouring the whole bowl of marinade onto the sheet pan and letting everything soak that goodness up. Ha!! I also failed to purchase another chunk of fresh ginger so I just sprinkled some dried ginger powder in the mix...still good, just not AS good. If going the sheet pan way, I’d ...
