Classically Comfortable

It's time for another Mom Fashion moment.  I like to be comfortable now that I have kids.  No more uncomfortable shoes or outfits because they look amazing.  Mobility is at the speed my bomb shoes allow. Nope, those days are gone.   If I can't run, juggle, or lift a small elephant while wearing it, it has no place in my wardrobe.  Sadly this leaves me with a lot of less than adorable outfits.  I have been trying to reclaim a little of my style without hindering my "mom" game. 

And now for something a little different

Lately, I have been feeling like I'm in a revolving door.  Not much creativity has been flowing and life just seems to get in the way of writing. Not that I am the best writer, to begin with, but aspiring would be a good way of putting it.  I'm sure many of you find places like the one I'm in with your own hobby.  So, how do I break out of it?  I've decided to start trying some writing exercises.  Nothing consistent, but when I have a moment here and there it would be a good way to stretch my mind.  So here is my first one.  The assignment is to create 3 characters using one stereotype and the rest unexpected using at least 100 words.

Boho Braid Crown

 What is there to do but hair right now?   No one can go to the salon we are all looking a little shaggy right about now.  So, let's have fun with your hair!  You will need a lot of patience, a few kid-appropriate expletives, I say Crimony a lot, skittles to bribe a child into being still,  and don't forget the hair supplies!  We had some fun with this super fun go-to braid crown.  I like this hairstyle because as the bangs grow out you can just add them into the braid across the front to keep them off the eyes!

Infusing Your Meal!

 

What is for dinner tonight?  Good question!  I feel like some days I spend a good chunk of time just wondering what is for dinner and I am the one cooking it!  It can be hard to come up with new recipes, ways to get the kids to eat something healthy, how to not dry out oven-baked chicken, and all the other barriers to the answer to that question!
