Uncooperative Kitteh

June 27, 2014 by Melanie

Jeez when is the last time I posted here!? lol Kitty Update: So far, I've given him 4 of the allergy shot injections with various levels of success haha. First was difficult, second was a breeze, third was okay, and the one I gave him yesterday was a mess. He kept moving so most of it got all ...

Cat Update and New Home Office

June 9, 2014 by Melanie

Oh my...so sorry I haven't posted in forever! Had a lot going on! Cat Update: So Charles has been doing really well. He's been on oral steroids for two weeks now and luckily has not had any side effects to them. I'm hoping the vet will lower the dosage this week so he can be weaned off of it. A ...

The Saga Continues…

May 22, 2014 by Melanie

So we got Charles's allergy panel results back this week. He's highly allergic to dustmites (which I already suspected) as well as a number of trees. I have no idea if the various outdoor things he's allergic to are even in our area, but I guess they very well could be. Its probably mainly the ...

Chipotle Salsa with Pan-Roasted Tomatillos

May 17, 2014 by Melanie

So I have a bit of an addiction to Rick Bayless's Frontera brand Chipotle salsa. As in, I can eat half a jar of the stuff in one sitting (and usually do). Its sooo good! Unfortunately, its also expensive, so I went on a search to find a similar salsa that was just as good. As luck would have it, I ...

Almost May? Wow

April 28, 2014 by Melanie

Charles

Ugh I left my glasses at home...I can feel my eyes straining and its not even 10AM yet. *headdesk* I meant to post last week, but just haven't gotten the chance! My Easter was...not great. At all. In fact, it was pretty terrible. This past weekend, however, was nice! Shawn and I went to Isabel's, ...

Wonderful Birthday Weekend!

April 14, 2014 by Melanie

Franklin Fountain

Oh man...my office is boiling right now because our A/C isn't going to be turned on until Thursday. I just answered the phone and I'm not sure if I actually formed a coherent sentence or retained anything the person said. #dead My birthday was on Friday, and it ended up being really nice (much ...

DIY Reed Diffuser using Essential Oils

So I mentioned in my previous post that I purchased some essential oils. I've been using them for skincare this week (will post about that at some point), but today I thought I'd share a really easy way to use them to make your own reed diffuser! I absolutely love reed diffusers, so being able to ...

April Updates

April 1, 2014 by Melanie

Tomorrow is Mr. Charles's 3rd birthday! Why yes, I took actual time out of my day (one might say, too much time) to create a custom graphic celebrating the day of birth of my cat. Stop judging me. My birthday is also coming up on the 11th, but that's far less exciting. In fact, being in ...

Benefit Cosmetics Big Easy BB Cream Review

March 13, 2014 by Melanie

I'm a big fan of anything by Benefit Cosmetics! I logged onto Birchbox to order some more Marcelle BB Cream that I love, but they were all out of my shade unfortunately. Then I noticed that there was a new BB Cream available from Benefit called "Big Easy" and that Birchbox was offering extra points ...

Daylights Savings and Kitties

March 10, 2014 by Melanie

Ugh I am so not used to this "spring forward" daylight savings thing. Especially since it most definitely does not feel like Spring (though its not snowing for once so...that's good I guess?). Yesterday, we went into Old City for lunch and to visit PAWS. Didn't want to be around the Center City ...
