Fashion Friday: Edition I’m too tired to think of a name

Diary, Fashion

Listen. It's been a long week here. But I wanted to let you know that for whatever reason, the sam edelman camellia tall suede boots are back in stock in limited quantities in camel and black right now at Nordstrom Rack. I got mine this week and they are all I dreamed they would be. I will suggest that if you're between sizes or not sure, I'd order a half size up. They really are just Read More

Fashion Friday: Edition it’s November!

Diary, Fashion

I feel like I blinked and October was over. And now that we are past Halloween, you know that it's time to turn our thoughts toward the upcoming holiday season. I am a purist and fully embrace Thanksgiving and all that November brings before I focus on Christmas. I like to take my months one at a time. But I did want to tell you about one thing I'll be doing for sure in the next few days to Read More

Big Boo Cast: Episode 122

Podcast

I think it's a given that we discussed the outcome of the Texas A&M vs. Mississippi State game. Spoiler alert: The Aggies lost. But we also talk about Sophie's tough love strategy and trying to turn our teens into productive members of society. And the fact that I guess I'm going to sleep with cloth surgical tape on my forehead from now on. You can click here to listen. Or here. You can even Read More

Fashion Friday: Edition you won’t even believe what is back in stock

Diary, Fashion

I don't know that I've ever loved the internet more than I did yesterday when I had no less than twenty people message me on Instagram to let me know that they noticed that Nordstrom Rack had the Sam Edelman Camellia boots in stock. If you're new here or don't listen to the podcast, then maybe you don't know that I have spent the better part of a year lamenting the fact that I didn't buy these Read More

Big Boo Cast: Episode 121

Podcast

It will probably come as no surprise that we talk about college football in this episode. It was a good weekend for me because my Aggies had a bye week which meant I was a normal person. But Sophie's Bulldogs played LSU and, well, it was a defensive struggle. And an offensive struggle. Also, targeting calls continue to be my hot button. But we also discuss the lines you get when you Read More

Fashion Friday: Edition and now we find ourselves with no plans

Diary, Fashion

I thought I'd be packing us up for a weekend trip to Dallas for soccer this weekend, but all our games got cancelled due to all the rain. So instead I'm wondering what to do with all this newfound freedom and time. The sky is the limit. We may go to Home Depot AND Bed, Bath and Beyond before it's all over. via GIPHY Here are some cute things I found this week: 1. ae oversized Read More

Fashion Friday: Edition cooler weather is on the way

Diary, Fashion

That's right. I just watched the weather forecast and the high here on Monday is supposed to be in the 50s. And it's going to be rainy. It's really too much goodness for my mind to comprehend. So if you need me I'll just be here making my grocery list to make things like chili and tortilla soup and all my favorite fall comfort foods. Here are some cute things I found this week: 1. malta Read More
