I made this beautiful braised chicken last week using a recipe by Anne Burrell of Secrets of a Restaurant Chef. She has quickly become my absolute favorite chef to watch on Food Network…her recipes have such depth and yumminess!!

I’m so excited – I just finalized my order on Amazon and soon the next two beautiful books will be in my hands! Home Decor has become more and more interesting to me in the past few weeks and thanks to the Nesting Place I decided this was a resource I just couldn’t live with [...]

As with Walker…little Miss Cameron had no desire to arrive on her due date – Jan 15 – in fact, she made us wait almost another whole week. We were no strangers to waiting…Walker was induced when he went 9 days past his due date. I so wanted Cameron’s birth to be different…to go [...]
