#marchphotoaday Week 1

Happy March!  Usually at this time of the year, I'd be anticipating the upcoming weeks of warmer weather & fresh flowers, but this morning I woke up to snow {for the second time this month already}!  Here's to hoping spring isn't too far away...

+ Day 1 - up {the stairs}

+ Day 2 - fruit {little cutie}

+ Day 3 - our neighborhood

+ Day 4 - bedside {simple, but necessary}

Love: appSmitten

In the age of the smartphone, I feel like almost every one I know is talking about the newest + best app out there today.  Instead of trying to keep up with them all, I've decided to turn to the expertise of appSmitten for my app suggestions.

For those who haven't heard of the awesomeness behind appSmitten, listen up!  Simply put, appSmitten researches the millions of apps out there and then hand-selects the best ones to send recommendations on directly to people's inboxes daily/weekly/monthly {depending on how frequently you prefer}.


And did I mention this newsletter is free?  Because, to be honest, that was a big perk for me.  All you have to do is sign up and they'll do all the work.  How much easier can it get?

I first heard about appSmitten from a fellow blogger, Katie from Loves of Life, a couple months ago.  And since I signed up for their newsletter, I've immediately downloaded many apps primarily because of appSmitten's recommendation.

So if you're in the need for apps that will keep you organized, entertained, or productive, give appSmitten a try and see what new-to-you apps you will discover!



Disclosure: I teamed up with BlogHer to be an affiliate for appSmitten.  While I will receive a small compensation for newsletter subscribers, all the opinions above are my own.

#febphotoaday Week 5

And another month down!  As I mentioned a couple weeks ago, February was kind of harder than January as far as creativity went, but I pushed through it and I'm already looking forward to #marchphotoaday {you think I'm crazy, huh?}.  Here are the last few pictures of the month:

+ Day 27 - what I ate {Cheerios for breakfast}
+ Day 28 - money {counter for loose change}
+ Day 29 - something I'm listening to {Sara Bareilles!}

Also, I wanted to mention {for memory sake} another thing I finished last month {thanks to Chic Runner for the inspiration}:

It was really tough most days, but I am glad I finished it.  Most people probably can't see any differences, but I know my clothes are fitting better and I feel healthier overall.

So here's to a new month... hello March!
