Recipe: Healthy Cinnamon Tortilla Chips

I’ve really been embracing this journey. I’m on a quest for 2017 to drop this extra 15-20 lbs that I’ve put on over the past 15 months. Eating healthy doesn’t have to mean not having good food, enjoy the food and enjoy the journey. Today, I decided to make some healthy treats for my fiancé…

🎶It’s Not Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas🎶

It’s a week before Christmas, I’m not overly excited. It doesn’t feel much like Christmas this year. For the first time in 23 years, I won’t be with my chids … chids is a Tinaism – my brain has this tendency of mixing like words and creating it’s own new word. Chids is a mixture…

Keep Calm While The Renovations Continue …

I love home décor. I’ve owned six homes, and with each one, I’ve always wanted to make it mine. Fortunately… or unfortunately… I’ve never been someone who’s okay with the status quo. I enjoy expressing myself through décor. We moved into our current home last November—a 3,200 sq. ft. century home with four fully finished…

Why Do I Take Pics?

I am frequently asked why I take so many pictures … of everything! I always respond “cause I like to”. But when push comes to shove, I don’t only take pics cause I like to, I do it because they capture life moments of the things and people that I love. These are the main reasons I…

42 Going On … ?

A few weeks ago I was out for a girls afternoon. I was chatting with a nice young lady, I was telling her how I was a bit sad, because my youngest had just left for University and I was now an empty nester. She was floored, she thought I was only 30! Well, thank…

At Transformation

A few years ago, I went through a period of transformation. A time when I was forced to do some intense soul searching and dig deep. I had always been Tina daughter, Tina sister, Tina wife, Tina mom, Tina worker. I had spent years defined by those roles, as many of us do, and I…

This cozy ma and pa joint is owned and operated by Karen and her husband Derrick, who opened Style Mercantile in November…

Farewell Bright Lights, Big City!
