I’m sure everyone who normally reads CHST has wondered about all the vegan recipes I’ve been posting. Well guys, I’m coming out today. The truth is: I’m a new vegan. Mostly vegan, that is. Sometimes I eat vegetarian fare. After my Momma spilled the beans at our family reunion, I figured I should quit hiding … Continue reading »
Weekend before last, we spent some time with our good friends Matt & Kasey in Hot Springs! The whole intent of the day trip to Hot Springs was firstly, to spend time with Matt & Kasey (obviously) and secondly, to go with them to visit the chapel where they are getting hitched! We drove down … Continue reading »

I’ve been working on some reception ideas today. I decided to do something fun and a little less traditional for our guest book. We are going to have mad libs! My design: Because I worked very hard on this and I don’t want some one to steal all my hard work, I marked it with … Continue reading »
This morning, I found this growing with my plants! I don’t like to eat mushrooms, so I was mildly insulted when mother nature decided to transplant one into my little pot of plants. Maybe she knew I wouldn’t chop him up and cook him…hmmm. He’s cute, so I think I’ll keep him. I shall call … Continue reading »
Hello people! Today’s post is about my beautiful, colorful, happy, giant bag o’stuff! This is my bag: It is big. The ladies at work think I am nuts for carrying this thing around. But seriously, it’s full of stuff I need and use on a daily basis! See: Now, I don’t carry this whole thing … Continue reading »
One of my Summer Goals was to watch one “cult classic” movie per week. This week E and I watched One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest. While it may not be the best movie I’ve ever seen, it was definitely one of the most confusing. A brief synopsis from my point of view: a man … Continue reading »
Summer has offically arrived! E and I just got back from vacation with friends and have gone back to work this week. Photos and a comprehensive post about the goings and doings soon to come. But back to the point of this post… Though the past few weeks have been a flurry of stress (some good, some … Continue reading »
This weekend I had the pleasure of totally recharging my batteries. E and I went to see Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers at the Verizon Arena in Little Rock. It was a really good show and I am super pumped that we got to go! Even better than seeing Tom Petty though, was getting to … Continue reading »
If you aren’t my friend on Facebook, don’t workout at Curves of Jonesboro, or are not my momma, this may come as a surprise to you! Yesterday, Sunday, February 19th, 2012 at approximately 2pm, I made the second best decision of my life! Saying “Yes!” when E asked me to marry him! I know this … Continue reading »
Last Saturday, I went to my family reunion with my Mom and little brother!
(This was originally written on June 27th.) It’s been 20 days since we started our vegan journey. My vegan journey. E claims he doesn’t call himself a “vegan”. He says he eats a “whole foods plant-based diet”. Quite a mouthful when someone asks…but it avoids the whole “vegan” connotation. It hasn’t been too bad. I did … Continue reading »

If anyone is in the Louisville, Kentucky area and needs an awesome and hilarious photographer, check out my girl Sarah! Seriously. She’s freaking hilarious. We met on vacation when we were both on the same cruise. If you want to make her crack up, just ask her about the dancing girl! Today is her birthday … Continue reading »
I love you, Dad!
I love these things! These are just the ones that I recently uploaded from my phone: For more, visit someecards.com.
These are the recipes we have tried this week: All of these recipes are linked back to their original sources and I made some adaptations that you will find in parentheses below the links! Enjoy! (and don’t be afraid to try them just because they’re vegan! They’re good, I promise!) Red Lentil Thai Chili (E … Continue reading »
(This post was originally written on June 11th) Vegan I said it, “vegan.” It’s almost a dirty word around these parts. North East Arkansas, that is. Possibly the South in general, though I find it hard to believe that there can be that many closed-minded people in one general area. Alas, if the fight for equal rights for … Continue reading »

I made this with my friend Kasey in mind! We both love EOs and she looooooves her some sprouts! Mostly I just made it for me…because I have a ridiculous love for Ryan Gosling.
This week I watched (as you could probably tell from the title…) The Goonies and Office Space! I liked The Goonies a lot and I’m really glad I can actually understand all the pop culture references now! “Hey you guys!” “Goonies never say die!” I may or may not be guilty of telling E to … Continue reading »

Last night my boss posted this on my Facebook timeline: …and I thought she was crazy! But then, after some encouragement from my big brother (see above), I changed my mind! So now, you probably think I’m crazy, I am going to participate in a Tough Mudder! My only rules were: (1) that Mandy cannot … Continue reading »
I stumbled upon this this morning and found it insanely interesting! The video starts by identifying six ways to perceive time: 1) Looking at the past as “the good old times” (past positive) 2) Looking at the past as a time filled with regrets and failure (past negative) 3) Present Hedonistic – focused on maximizing immediate … Continue reading »
Facebook has almost been the death of me this week. I feel like my life (and my news feed, for that matter) is just chock-full of negative people. I’m, from this moment forward, on a direct mission to expel all the ones I can from having any direct influence on my life and my happiness. Eleanor … Continue reading »

Hey y’all! It’s Thursday! Thursday is my favorite day because it is the day before Friday! and Friday is the last day of the week! (On a side note, Sunday is my least favorite day because you get “the Sunday blues” from anticipating the Monday to follow.) So on this Thursday in March, this girl … Continue reading »
Just one of the many reasons I love my family and friends!
