Last month I shared that I'm buying my childhood home in Wisconsin. During my latest visit, I gave the existing bathroom decor some serious side-eye. My parents recently renovated the main bathroom, but I thought it might be fun to design a few bathroom makeover mood boards. In January, Wayfair challenged me to redesign the living room,[...]
The cat is outta the bag, and the rumors are true — I'm purchasing my childhood home! If you read yesterday's post, you know it's a 3-bedroom split-level ranch home in rural Wisconsin. For the design, I will be leaning into the mid-century modern vibe. After hearing the news, Wayfair challenged me to find the best Mid-Century Mod[...]
Last May, my parents, out of the blue, announced that they would be selling my childhood home in Baraboo, WI. Well, I guess not completely out of the blue, but earlier than expected. After snowbirding between Wisconsin and Florida for years, they found the perfect senior living community in Naples and decided to move there permanently.[...]
Last weekend, I returned to my hometown for my 30th class reunion. Yup, you read that right. The big 3-0. Have you attended one of your high school reunions? I've attended a few and always had a good time, but this one, in particular, was interesting, and I wound up having a major personal revelation. The day before we left fo[...]

Stay Cool On The Water With These Lakeside Must Haves Notice how hazy it is? That's the Canadian wildfire smoke. It h[...]
A few weeks ago, while glamping at Camp Wandawega, we dined at The Duck Inn, a good old Wisconsin supper club, so of course, I ordered a Brandy Old-Fashioned Sweet cocktail. Unless you live in Wisconsin, finding a bartender who can mix a good one is hard. In fact, a bartender in Florida looked at me like I was from Mars when I[...]
Happy Wednesday you guys! I have to tell ya, I didn't think much could top my getaway weekend at Camp Wandawega, but let me tell you, I think I died and went to junkyard heaven when walked through the pearly gates of the Elkhorn Flea last Sunday morning. Now, I've been to many a flea, but I'd have to say this is one of THE best I've ever[...]
Let's take a mini-vacation to Camp Wandawega in Elkhorn, WI. I've been dying to share our yummy weekend getaway, but after arriving home, I immediately unpacked and got to work processing the photos. Magical, Camp Wandawega is just magical! I just can't stop gushing about it. It was quiet, cozy, quaint, and everything we wanted it to be![...]
