House

Yesterday was a busy day at the Haupert household! Mal and I hosted a Mother’s Day lunch for my mom, sister (mom-to-be), and brother-in-law, Pat, and then Mal and Pat built a shed in our backyard. Oh, the fun of being a homeowner! About an hour before my family arrived at our house, Mal said [...]

Just a heads up: This is a super random blog post… and you’re welcome. Ha! Mal had today off from school since it’s Good Friday, so we (ok, him and Murphy) slept in and enjoyed a leisurely morning together. I actually had a terribly disturbing dream about Murphy being attacked by a big, white sea [...]

It’s Watchathon Week

March 28, 2013

A couple of hours after lunch yesterday, I had a craving for something cold and creamy—specifically, a “Bananas Foster” smoothie, which I’ve made almost every day since I created the recipe for Health.com last week. (FYI: I think it’ll be published next week.) It’s so frickin’ good. It’s basically a dessert smoothie, but the recipe calls [...]

pug pillow

Hi, guys! My friends at Wayfair recently sent me an adorable pug pillow to review on CNC. With Murphy sitting right next to it, it’s sort of like looking at a pug shadow, right? Maybe? How fun is this pillow?! The navy and white matches our newly decorated living room perfectly. Love it. On one [...]

Hi, guys! Happy Saturday! After sleeping in this morning, Mal and I headed to Starbucks. We were out of iced coffee, which was, of course, no way to start our day, so we threw on some sneakers and headed straight there—no need to change out of our sweatpants! Of course, Murphy wanted to come along [...]

living room redecorated

We finally redecorated our living room! When Mal and I were cleaning the house on Sunday afternoon, we were suddenly inspired to rearrange our living room, which, eventually, led to us to wanting to redecorate the whole, darn thing. Hey, when you’re feeling motivated, you might as well act on it, right? Our first stop: [...]

2012 Goals in Review

IMG_3590-563x750.jpg

Good morning! Last night, Mal and I went to our friends’ condo to watch the Pats game together. They said we could bring “Mugs” (Murphy + pug), so we brought our furchild along. When Mal and I travel with the pug, one person always takes the dog while the other person carries the stuff. Whenever [...]

Winter Wonderland

December 30, 2012

001

Good morning! Happy Sunday! This morning, I woke up to a winter wonderland… And a (rude) pug wake up call. I was barked at in bed this morning. Apparently, someone was ready to eat breakfast. Breakfast After I fed Murphy, I made my own breakfast, which was an egg and cheese sandwich on a Microwaveable [...]

Rainy Day Laziness (Sort of)

December 28, 2012

026

It was cold, gray, and rainy yesterday morning, so I stayed in bed much later than usual. Mal and Murphy were snoozing next to me, so why would I want to get out of bed when I could stay warm and cozy and cuddle with them? Breakfast Eventually, I motivated myself out of bed, but [...]

Check out our “new” front door! I’m digging the black. It’s definitely better than the dirty, dinged up white door we used to have! Lunch Today’s lunch was leftover cheesy Shepherd’s Pie with steamed spinach for some extra nutrients and “bulk.” The spinach was also on its last legs, so I wanted to use it [...]
