Prefinished hardwood flooring has gained popularity for its durability, beauty, and ease of installation. Many homeowners find it to be an ideal flooring choice, combining elegance with practicality. Here are ten reasons why prefinished hardwood is a favorite among homeowners: 1. Quick and Easy Installation Since prefinished hardwood is already sanded, stained, and sealed, it doesn’t require the lengthy on-site finishing process that unfinished hardwood does. This streamlined installation means less disruption in your home and a faster setup. 2. Superior Durability Prefinished hardwood often has multiple coats of factory-applied finish, making it more resistant to scratches, stains, and wear…

Yesterday I got a jump on my holiday shopping. There’s a wonderful outdoor mall about 45 minutes from my house, I grab a latte and go store to store gathering gifts for my family and friends. It’s a ritual I do once a year instead of purchasing everything online, and it gets me in the holiday spirit. The skies were blue, I wore my coziest sweatshirt, and I gathered inspiration from the holiday decor. Next weekend I’ll repeat the same in my hometown and then fill in the gaps with online purchases the week of cyber Monday. Like all of…

In November of 2020, we published a post called “What’s It Like To Downsize” after living in our smaller home for 6 months. We covered a range of experiences – like the good things about moving to a smaller home (owning less stuff! saving money!) and some of its challenges, especially in the initial stages of downsizing (paring down! figuring out storage!). We still agree with everything in that post, but it had only been six months… and since it has now been over 4.5 years (!!!), we feel like we have a few more to add about the long-haul…

There was that time when I was 25 year old, I was planning my wedding, and I had just passed the bar exam. I was hired as a deputy district attorney fresh out of law school where I began a career as a prosecutor working 50 hours a week, carrying a heavy caseload, and appearing daily in court. That season lasted for nearly five years. In that time, I learned trial skills, stress management, and how to think on my feet. I wore suits and heels and a string of pearls as I walked the halls of justice representing the…

November greetings friends. Daylight savings is upon us. I have mixed feelings about it every year, while I like the light streaming through the windows a little earlier in the day, the five o’clock darkness is gloomy. However I’ve decided to shift my mindset about it, after all, it’s not something I can change. Therefore the focus for November will be layers of cozy: homemade soups, soft throw blankets on every sofa and chair, the opportunity to light more candles, and the anticipation of the upcoming holidays. We’re hosting Thanksgiving again so I’ll be doing the cooking with the help…

My best friend and I live in different parts of the country (we’ve been best friends for 24 years, and have only spent about 1/3 of them in the same city), so we love taking trips together. Let me tell you, the joy of packing light (only for yourself! not the whole fam!) and having a few nights of sleepovers in a fun new place and exploring so freely (just us eating dessert for breakfast if we want to!)… it’s euphoric. And our latest trip that we enjoyed was a completely new spot for me! She grew up going to…
