This weekend, Adeline and I are in Atlanta at NAMS7, a blogging/internet marketing conference (If you are a blogger, you really should check out this conference. REALLY amazing learning experience.) Last night I was at dinner with some blogging friends attending the conference (including Sami, Erin and Andrea)  when I heard the news that Whitney [...]

Awesome Photo Product Site – Pinhole Press (Review)

by jessicaturner on February 1, 2012

I buy from a lot of photo product companies. So when Groupon ran a deal from Pinhole Press, a company I hadn’t heard of, I quickly snatched it up. I ordered a framed calendar for Matthew and a 2.5×8.5 listpad, then anxiously awaited their arrival. When they arrived, I opened the box and gasped. Literally, some [...]

Motherhood Monday: Beef Stew for Dinner

by jessicaturner on January 30, 2012

I use the crock pot at least two-three times a week. We rarely go out to eat, since we find it is so much cheaper to stay at home, and we usually like what we cook better! Therefore, the crock pot helps us to have delicious home cooked meals at a reasonable hour (since I [...]

Easy Headband Organization

by jessicaturner on January 18, 2012

In case you haven’t noticed, I love putting headbands on Adeline. She doesn’t seem to mind them at all, though I usually only leave them on for pictures, or if we are going out. When Adeline was born, I kept her headbands in a small basket in her room. It quickly became full and I [...]

Recipes from Pinterest

by jessicaturner on November 16, 2011

One of the many things I love about Pinterest is finding new recipes. I have been in a bit of a recipe rut this year (it could have been the whole being pregnant and having a baby thing…). However, in the past few months I have made so many delicious recipes thanks to Pinterest. I [...]

On the Bookshelf

by jessicaturner on September 8, 2011

I’m at the beach right now with (in)courage. While we are having fun in community, retreating together, I wanted to share some of the books that are on my coffee table/bookshelf (follow our tweets and pics here). In the past few weeks, I have received a bunch of books to preview – many from women [...]

Last Year of My Twenties

by jessicaturner on July 27, 2011
