One of the first wedding planning discussions we had after getting engaged, centered around the music selections. We both love music and knew a few songs that must be played. We enjoyed selecting the sounds that set the mood for our special day.
Read MoreAhh, Coca-Cola. If you know Darrell and I, you know our love for this beverage has played a special part in our story! Lately, we’ve been trying to be more health-conscious and by doing so, drinking less soda. It’s very challenging and while I don’t plan to entirely “give up” my precious Cokes anytime soon (maybe one day I guess - never say never, right?)

Generally speaking, I’m not a fan of making salads at home because I feel like it doesn’t matter what I do, they do not taste restaurant-quality and the dressings in particular seem to require a ton of ingredients that I don’t keep on hand. So I end buying weird ingredients and the cost adds up, then the DIY dressings rarely taste awesome and I end up with a bunch of random stuff taking up space in my fridge door or pantry because I needed a tablespoon of it once upon a time.
