Technically, I’m a little late to the self tanning tips game. But so what? It’s fall now, and it’s still really stinking hot in Alabama. Most of us won’t be wearing sweaters and fleece-lined leggings for a long while. With school in full swing none of us get to lay out by the pool as often, so I wanted to share some tips on having a great self tanning experience so we can still rock our shorts and sandals well into the fall here in the south with bronzed confidence.

Tailgate Tuesday- Make Ahead Spinach Dip
Some game days are so busy that making a hot dip or appetizer that morning is just impossible. It’s been happening to me a lot more now that I’ve started working on Saturdays. But I’ve found a recipe that is actually better when you make it the night before. Even better, it only takes a few minutes to mix up. After that, just store it in the fridge until you’re ready to serve it. Here’s the recipe to my mom’s cold spinach dip. Continue reading “Tailgate Tuesday- Make Ahead Spinach Dip”
Movie Set Monday- The Parent Trap- Annie’s England Home
Happy Monday, friends. Last week I shared the first home from The Parent Trap that’s located in sunny California. In the original film, it’s a unique ranch house that I’d move into today and not change a thing. In the remake, it’s a home on a vineyard that has the same chill vibe that invites the outside in with giant windows and multiple pairs of French doors. But you didn’t think I’d go without sharing the England home, did ya? It’s absolutely beautiful inside and out. Scroll through for a look at this gorgeous home.

Two Lane Hi-Way at the Ritz
Greenville is full of insatiable talent. You would never believe that most of the people on that stage came from small town Alabama.
I always enjoy when Greenville talent puts on a show for the community. I’m sure many of you have been to see Puttin’ on the Ritz over the years and seen for yourself what great performers we have here. If not, you’re seriously missing out! Continue reading “Two Lane Hi-Way at the Ritz”

Movie Set Monday- The Parent Trap Hallie’s Napa Home
Happy Monday, y’all! I’ve recently come across a few more homes that have been begging to be featured on Movie Set Monday, and I’ve finally put together some posts about them. I recently saw that The Parent Trap was on TV, and I remembered loving that movie as a kid. Now that I’m all grown up I watch it in an entirely different way. The homes are amazing, and the relationship and arrangement with those twins is quite interesting. Hmm… Anyway, let’s visit Hallie’s California vineyard in Napa.
