16 Things You Didn’t Know About Me

September 12, 2013 By Haley 78 Comments

I just turned 28 on Sunday (I get to share a birthday with Our Lady!), and I thought it would be fun to share a few fun random facts about me that I don't think I've shared before. Because blogs exist so you can blather on about yourself, right? Ahem. 1. Earl Grey is my favorite tea. It reminds me of early mornings researching Old French hagiography for my senior thesis, which I … [Read more...]

My 12 Favorite Carrots Posts of 2012

January 1, 2013 By Haley 4 Comments

Happy New Year! Since sharing which 10 posts were the most popular with my readers in 2012, I realized that almost none of my favorite posts made the list! My 10 Books You Must Read to Your Daughter post (viewed almost 200,000 times this year!) came together in an hour. Go figure, right? But some of my posts are the result of days (or weeks) of reflection. Here's a few posts that really came from … [Read more...]

This Week’s Miscellany: Vol. 24

August 24, 2012 By Haley 10 Comments

Whew. What a week! A runny nose for our little asthmatic Benjamin turned into a relentless cough and a high fever sending him on a couple visits to the pediatrician and many, many breathing treatments at home. And I don't know if you're aware of that fun cough-induced vomiting trick some kids do, but if it was an Olympic sport, Benjamin would win a gold medal. Not to be outdone by big brother, … [Read more...]

When We Were Away: A Photo Post

August 8, 2012 By Haley 4 Comments

Today I wanted to share some pictures of our 12 day trip to the Carolinas. These I took with my real camera, but I'll probably sneak some of my instagrams (haleyweasley) from the week in Friday's This Week's Miscellany. I'm still catching up on emails, comments, etc., so if you haven't heard back from me, it's not because I don't think you're grand! I'll get back to you soon, promise! On our trip … [Read more...]

We're still up in the mountains escaping the Florida heat and enjoying some time with extended family. I know it's been pretty quiet 'round these parts, but I hope you enjoyed Katherine's non-maternity "maternity" picks and my must-have maternity items that can be used during the post-partum weeks, too.  Here's a  short This Week's Miscellany and I'll be back in full force next week :) (You can … [Read more...]

This Week’s Miscellany: Vol. 20

July 20, 2012 By Haley 2 Comments

Happy Friday! It was a long week of teething for Miss Lucy (AKA no sleep for mama), but some summer fun as well (like the homemade Bubble Tea Benjamin and I have been enjoying). And my second post is up at Mama and Baby Love about How to Cook with Bacon Grease (And Why You Should!). So, head over there to hear me gab about how much I love bacon. Coming Up in the Liturgical Year: The Feast of … [Read more...]
