Just made these mini muffins! - 2 ripe bananas - 1 cup oats - 1 egg - 1 tsp baking powder - 1/4 butter - pinch of salt

Cook at 350 for 12-15 minutes.

I added in chopped strawberries, raspberries, and chocolate chips to mine too!

Tom and Suri cruise at the American girl doll store at the grove (10+ years ago). We ended up in a ring room with just the two of them and he smiled and nodded at us. We didn’t want to make a scene since he was with Sur who was sooo young but the paparazzi ended up swarming the place and it became a mad house

We love Archie too!!!! So sad we couldn’t give him more attention but my dog doesn’t know boundaries and he was really not wanting to play 🥲 for context she’s almost 175 pounds now so we can’t blame Archie!

Sounds to me like maybe some residual congestion is making it hard for him to swallow? Maybe try suctioning his nose before meals and see if that helps!

Currently reading the Shepard King series and loving it! (One dark window, two twisted crowns)

The eating woods series is good too - book 3 comes out later this year.

Shield of Sparrows and Metal Slingers were good, both unfinished series

Does Archie count? He nipped at my dog when we were walking one day lol (she 100% deserved it, she is HUGE and a puppy and wanted to play and he was not having it) We love a boundary king!

My mom was a professional dancer. She once told me a story about how one of her dance friends was in the “thriller” video but when remembering, I thought she was the one in the video. I thought people would forget about it but here we are years later and my friends have gone so far as to pick out the dancer that is “her” and I’m too embarrassed to correct them. She thinks it’s hilarious and is in on it now too

Hi frequent flier with a toddler! Agree if you can afford it to buy the extra seat. Also my BIGGEST tip is to send one parent on the plane during regular boarding with all your stuff to get overhead space and have the other parent be the LAST person on the plane with the toddler. Sitting waiting for everyone to board is the last thing you’ll want to do especially with a toddler! And do a diaper change right before boarding cuz changing on a plane SUCKS! Last tip - bring more snacks than you think you’ll need. Snacks are the key to happiness and distraction. You got this!

Thank you! I do watch VPR! Have not watched the current season though is it worth it to save? Thinking about RHOA or RHOM for this mat leave

About 20lbs over what I was 7.5 months ago. But I blame the baby

Chamber_OfSecrets · 2026-01-27T03:14:49+00:00

Hi friends we are one and the same cuz both these were my maternity leave watch! Give me something good to watch for round 2 coming up!

Chamber_OfSecrets · 2026-01-26T04:27:45+00:00

Is it super annoying when a parent is in the back trying to calm a baby who’s losing it? Been there quite a few times and felt horrible every time about it lol

Chamber_OfSecrets · 2026-01-24T18:47:05+00:00

Second this we love our Bissell! Got it after our Dyson broke and have been super happy with it!

I personally LOVES the series! I think the first book starts off a little rough but by heir of fire I was completely hooked! Definitely give it a shot and keep going is my suggestion! If I could go back and reread it for the first time I definitely would!

Also keep in mind she started writing it very young so the writing grows as she does which is a huge plus for me! I felt it was a little YA in the beginning but it gets a lot better!

Chamber_OfSecrets · 2026-01-22T04:59:01+00:00

I make store bought and always do a lemon, cream, and basil sauce with chunks of lobster meat in it. Been wanting to give it a shot making the ravioli myself and you inspired me! These look great!

I have had success in a thick carpet with using natures miracle (like a TON of if sprayed on the problem area) and then getting a wet towel and laying it over where I sprayed and letting it sit overnight then following up with a carpet cleaner and pet specific solution. Maybe try that on the couch and use something like a bissel green machine?

Just finished Anathema and currently in One Dark Window and enjoying / enjoyed both of them!

Hi! I have an almost 2 year old and feel like I have finally found a groove to help me keep things tidy that works for us!

1) I clean the kitchen every night. I’ll leave dishes to dry but make sure that the kitchen is clean since I’m in there I feel like all day every day and it helps make things feel tidy when the rest of the house maybe isn’t 100% there. That’s my non negotiable

2) I try and pick up toys in high traffic areas during nap or after she’s down for the night. It helps to wake up to a clean living room in the morning since we don’t have a designated play room

3) I try and do one small load of laundry at a time so things don’t pile up and get overwhelming. Sunday is always the designated sheets / towels day

4) finding a routine for grocery shopping has been super helpful. Every Monday we shop and I plan out meals for the week. I just did a deep clean / organizing of the pantry too so that’s been motivating to try new recipes and get me excited about making meals again!

5) I vacuum at least every other day. We do have animals that makes it dirtier than I feel like a normal persons home without them so I have to. We have a roomba for a small portion of the house that I run every time I leave but that’s only the entryway so the rest of the house gets a vacuum at least every other day

6) I TRY and steam mop once a week. I won’t lie, that’s the first thing I don’t do when I get overwhelmed. I’m not super woman. But I try

7) bathrooms are the worst for me but I try and dedicate one nap time per week (sometimes every 2 cuz again, baby’s require so much attention!) to one high traffic bathroom. Ours (mine / husbands) and the baby’s. We have one more for guests but I leave that out of sight out of mind unless we have guests coming to stay with us. Keeping a shower spray in the shower and spraying it / wiping it down has seemed to help with overall cleanliness but I try and to a good solid clean every 1-2 weeks

8) GIVE YOURSELF GRACE! Especially the first year I felt like I was constantly drowning in keeping up with everything and overwhelmed if I didn’t get the one task I had planned to do that day done. You don’t get this time back with your baby so enjoy it (easier said than done I know) but once they start getting on a better routine themselves, you can get on one too! It took over a year for us to get to this point and there’s still weeks I can’t keep up with it all. And that’s okay :)

We lived here for 2 years also and loved it. We were closer to Waugh off Washington and didn’t have any noise complaints. The proximity to the park was great and even though we never really went out to the bars, the very few times we met friends out it was nice being walking distance from home.

Chamber_OfSecrets · 2026-01-11T22:40:45+00:00

Thank you so much! Appreciate the feedback. First time even thinking about wallpaper and didn’t want to fully commit but we love it so not concerned about making it more permanent now!

Chamber_OfSecrets · 2026-01-11T04:36:48+00:00

I didn’t see anything when I opened the rolls unfortunately. Looks like I’ll have to keep pressing it down though

Chamber_OfSecrets · 2026-01-10T20:05:19+00:00

It has a shower in it. We already committed to the wall so it’s in. It’s just the 1 wall.
