Front Porch Refresh with Patio Lane!

If Florida could go ahead and turn the heat back on that would be grrrreat! We are currently having our second round of "winter" down here and honestly there is only one reason I'm not enjoying it...it's destroying all my tropical plants and turning all the grass brown.  Now...as far as the cooler temps I actually love them! I'm sure you all have noticed we use our new fireplace outback multiple times a week BUT what I haven't been showing a lot of is our front porch.  Truth be told that's because the chairs we had up front got moved to the back after the pool and patio were finished.  Sooooo the porch (one of my favorite spots) has sat empty.  But not anymore!!

New Year..New Goals!! (Ketogenic Lifestyle)

We have lots of exciting travel plans, my husband is turning 40, we both have new business goals on our agendas and we not only want all that energy that comes along with a ketogenic lifestyle..we need it! To get us started and back into the right mind frame I found a great "beginners" book that does a fantastic job explaining how and why the KETO lifestyle works and just exactly what happens to your body.  It also has two whole weeks planned out menu wise.....
