Sunburns, Scream-Singing, and Convertible Chaos — A Miami Moment to Remember

Y’all. Let me tell you something — Carrley was in town for the week, and we were thriving. The vibes? Immaculate. The snacks? Stocked. The plans? Chaotic, unhinged, and exactly what we needed.

Happy 21st, Carrley… But Also, Can You Chill?

Okay, wait a minute.How dare my daughter turn 21 today… while I’m down here in Florida, being all sunshine and sandals, and she’s up there celebrating without me?! Rude. Disrespectful.

Sass, Sweat & Surprise Armadillos

Welp, color me proud because Mama is out here doing the damn thang! Up at 5 A.M.—yes, FIVE, as in the time the coffee hasn’t even kicked in yet—and what’s the first thing I did?

Sunshine, Sass, and Swollen Thumbs

Oh, honey… the drama that is my immune system. I’ve officially been up all night like I’m at a rave I didn’t RSVP for—except instead of glow sticks and beats, it’s just me, my heating gloves, and a thumb joint screaming louder than a toddler who didn’t get their Happy Meal. We are currently deep […]

Simply Sina: Domestic Delusion Diaries (aka Me vs. Housework)

Okay, y’all. Let me just lay it out there before someone else does: Not working is working me over. I’m out here living that “stay-at-home-girl” life, and let me tell you—it’s not giving soft housewife fantasy; it’s giving How did I get marinara sauce on the ceiling again? All I want to do is curl up in my […]

Smalls Sliders: Our TikTok-Fueled Foodie Field Trip

Alright y’all, let me set the scene: it’s hotter than the devil’s armpit in Florida, and what do we decide to do? Take a spontaneous (read: slightly dramatic and entirely TikTok-inspired) road trip to Clearwater just to try a place called Smalls Sliders.

You know you’ve officially crossed into “real Florida” territory when your husband won’t stop sending you Omgitswicks videos like it’s a full-time job. And honestly? I get it.

!MOM-ZOMBIE ALERT! + BIG NEWS!

Reporting live from the couch in Bardstown, still rocking yesterday’s travel outfit and a solid 24+ hours of sleep deprivation. Glamorous, I know. We survived another road trip, y’all! Cue the dramatic fainting. And can we just give a round of applause to my husband who—drumroll, please—drove the first couple hours. I was shooketh…and ever so grateful. It was […]
