If you follow the blog, you know that this spring I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. Even though I do have a family history of breast cancer (on both sides), at 32-years-old it was still a complete shock. If you're just joining us and you'd like to read more: Asha's Breast Cancer Story. Now, I'm just over three months into my treatment and the majority of the shock has worn off. I am doing my best to keep a positive outlook as I know the difference a positive mindset can make. I have nine rounds Read more [...]

Thank you to Loom & Table for sending a tablecloth and cloth napkins for review in exchange for my honest opinion.    If you follow the blog, you know that we recently remodeled our home. The last piece of furniture left in our home that needs a facelift is our kitchen table. It doesn't match our new woodwork or flooring. My brother-in-law is supposed to be making us a new table, but that takes time, so for now we are left with our out-of-place looking kitchen table.      When Read more [...]

My family and I are getting ready to take off for a long weekend of camping. When we go camping, I like to make our meals as easy as possible. I choose foods that can either be prepared before we leave or easily done at our campsite. 

For this trip, I decided to bring biscuits for a breakfast. I had just heard about combining blueberries with lemon and thyme. I thought they sounded like a fun addition to my rustic biscuit recipe.

Coobie sent me bras in exchange for this review. All opinions are my own.

Coobie is a brand that makes seamless bras without underwires. They're designed to fit a wide range of sizes, too. They come with removeable pads, so they offer more protection tha a bralette. Yet, they have no wires or other tight/firm portions to poke or dig in. 

I've been struggling with my eating and weight for a while now, as a result of ongoing stress. I haven't wanted to buy new bras only to probably use them Read more [...]

It's Amber, coming at you with another delicious salmon meal! If you couldn't tell, our family loves wild caught salmon. We make a variation of it at least once a week. Wild caught salmon is so healthy and our kids always love these recipes. Since this one was so popular, I figured I'd share it with you! 
Baked Salmon with Italian Herb Crust

For this recipe, you'll need salmon (wild-caught is best!), dried basil leaves, parmesan cheese, diced garlic, Italian seasoning and bread crumbs OR Italian Read more [...]

Thank you to Crown Goose USA for providing me with products to facilitate my blog review. All opinions are 100% my own.

Three years ago, I had the pleasure of reviewing Crown Goose bedding. It was love at first sight and we continue to be impressed with it!

I had discovered Crown Goose after a stay at a Hilton Hotel. While we were guests, my husband and I had some of the best sleep we have ever had. I unmade the bed to see where the bedding came from. I was hoping it was possible to get the Read more [...]
