Twenty Twelve, It's Nice To Meet You

So, I've blogged before, about specific things, but not very consistently. I'd like to get better at that - one goal for this new year - and perhaps allowing myself a broader spectrum of topics will make that easier. To be slightly more narrowed-down about it, I suppose this blog could best be described as a "life-style" blog. Household, cleaning, shopping, saving money ... that sort of thing. Hopefully, it won't get boring :o)

To begin, an introduction:

I'm 28, I've been married for 8.5 years to my best friend and we have a 4-year old chocolate lab named Elijah. We currently live in the house I grew up in so the past few years have been about home projects that make the place more ours and less like the house I remember as a child. I suppose we'll continue in that vein until all the rooms are different and new to us.

I've also spent the last few years (slowly) changing the way I do things. I love to cook and am much more of a scratch cooker/baker than I was when we first got married. I try to incorporate good-for-me things into the dishes I make and it's been a learning experience. I also love to entertain, experiment in the somewhat scary world of DIY, and travel - even if it's just to a neighborhood I've never been.

I like to play with my style, but the one thing that is a MUST for me is heels! (Hence the blog title). I wear heels about 98% of the time I have shoes on. Flip flops in the summer on occasion, tennis shoes if I'm forced. But almost always heels. High, short, chunky, skinny, colored, textured, printed ... doesn't matter. I love them all.

I also love to write so hopefully I'll be able to get behind this blog and really put down my thoughts. So glad you're here to enjoy the adventure with me!
