If you tune in to Coffee with Grandma over on Instagram stories, you’ll usually find me drinking something from a white coffee mug…but it isn’t coffee. The truth is, I enjoy drinking coffee, but it often leaves me feeling jittery. Even if you do take pride in your morning coffee habit, maybe think about giving…

I live in Texas, you guys. In Texas, we have to rely on outside resources to teach our kids about the four seasons because we only experience 2 3/4 of them. We’ve got an A+ in summer. No brainer there. Spring is fine. That’s kind of the bridge of not needing heavy coats & still…

I remember when I was eighteen & my primary concern when it came to skincare was finding a product that took off my makeup & didn’t make me breakout. If it could be a one step process like a Neutrogena wipe, even better. I know Jennifer Garner is forty-five & there are commercials of her…

So the migraine at the beach happened. (If you don’t know what I’m talking about, it’s fine, but you can read about that here if you wish.) The migraine happened, & when we got back home, I made an appointment with my doctor to have some blood tests done & make sure I wasn’t scheduled…

Rachel Held Evans had died. Thirty eight year old wife to her college sweetheart, mom to two babies, & author. Her books have been on my amazon list for years (planning to have a RHE month later this fall), & I’ve loved hearing her talk on podcasts. She was hospitalized in April for a bad…

Before we dive into this review, let me just say—there have been allegations that Rachel Hollis has plagiarized from other influential authors. However, I can’t find where Rachel or the other authors have made a stance on it. All I am finding are other blogs & articles that seem to be using potential plagiarism to…
