Thai Iced Tea
Bjorn and I have always loved Thai food - it's one of our favorite cuisines, whether we're cooking at home or going out to eat. I studied abroad in Cambodia and fell in love with curry even more so then, and I'm lucky to have a husband who enjoys it just as much as I do! :) At most Thai restaurants, there are a couple delicious drinks on the beverage menu: Thai Iced Coffee and Thai Iced Tea. If you're unfamiliar with these beverages, they are basically creamy sweet versions of coffee or … [Read more...]
Happy Anniversary, Bjorn!!
Happy 4th anniversary to the best husband I ever could've asked for!! Photos in this post are all by Carissa Christine! As a teenager, I spent countless evenings on my knees, praying for "FH" (what I called my future husband) - praying that God would lead us to each other, and praying for our future marriage. I couldn't wait to meet him. I didn't know how, or where, but I knew it would be a beautiful, special relationship. I had my heart set on marrying my best friend, and I prayed for him … [Read more...]
Sophie’s First Easter Basket
Some links in this post are affiliate links. As always, I only share products with you that I truly like. Thanks for supporting Just Bee! I actually debated about whether or not to give Sophie an Easter basket this year (and any year), since I don't want the holiday to become materialistic to her as she grows up. I've had to think about how we'll approach this holiday with intention. Easter excitement shouldn't only center around things like candy and treats and egg hunts, even though those … [Read more...]
Motherhood: The Most Extreme Makeover
Oh, motherhood. My days certainly look a lot different now than they used to! I'm starting to type this post with one hand as I sit nursing sweet Sophie, but I pause often to stroke her fuzzy head and kiss her hand that always seems to wander up to rest on my throat. I love these moments with her. Before I know it, my daughter is going to be walking, and talking, and then wanting to do things all by herself! So it's extra special that she needs me so much right now. It is also hard. I'm … [Read more...]

Small Town Life Q+A Video
Today's post is totally different from anything I've posted before!! And I'm really excited about it. :) In my reader surveys, there have always been a lot of questions about our small town life and what it's like living in a rural community. While I do mention some things about our life here on the blog, my emphasis hasn't really been on small town life. More recently, I finally realized that many of you were still showing interest in this topic, so I asked you what other questions you had … [Read more...]
4 Stress Relief Strategies From My Husband (+ a $500 PayPal Cash giveaway!)
Even typing the title for this post had me smiling! It was definitely crucial for me to include the fact that these stress relief tips come from my wonderful husband, because I am not particularly qualified to offer stress relief advice at this point! Perhaps someday. ;) My husband Bjorn is such a "steady Eddy," something I am consistently noticing and am grateful for! To have someone like him in my life has been an incredible blessing. Bjorn doesn't stress the way that many people so often … [Read more...]
