Most DIY bathroom renovations cost upwards of $10,000.00—especially when they include new plumbing and installing a shower, tub, vanity, toilet, and flooring. Here’s how I did mine for under 9% of that figure. The guest bathroom needed an entire ‘gut remodel.’ There was no tub, shower or plumbing for it. And no flooring. Everything was outdated and old. This is the…

I’ve made this best guacamole recipe countless times since discovering the recipe over one year ago. I’ve made it for a bunch of teenage girls, a big group of boys, for my family, extended family, and for parties.

I love being a mother. But it can get downright tough. I always looked at toddlers that were having huge major meltdowns and thought to myself, ‘man I hope that my kid isn’t like that’. Well, now I have one who is exactly like that. Of course, I love him to pieces but man can…
I have a small table that I bought 5 years ago on the local classifieds for about $25.00. It has been in my living room until a recent remodel when I moved it into the kitchen/dining area. Even though it is a bit small, it fits my little family (single mom of two toddlers) perfectly. And because…
There are some awesome ways to save money on medical bills during pregnancy, labor, and postpartum.

And a few I didn’t find until my second pregnancy and really wished I had known about them for my first! For…
My mom has been making these breadsticks since before I can remember. They were always a favorite among my family (five siblings and parents).
