About Us

I'm Corrie, living with my boyfriend Darren, and we're just a couple of goofy twenty-something kids trying to navigate the adult world of homeownership (and life) and doing it on a dime. We both work mediocre 9 to 5 jobs so we can live our lives to the fullest outside of work. Our Great Dane, Remy, silliness, and the simple things in life are what keep us going.  Our interests are all over the place and change all the time. I would likely be diagnosed with Craft A.D.D. (Cra.-D.D.?) , if such a thing existed, even though I like to think of myself as more of a 'renaissance woman' because I enjoy dabbling in and learning about a little bit of everything. Being a first time homeowner, I'm hoping to add some 'house skills' to my long list of fun-but-really-only-use-once-per-year skills and document our 'ah-HA!' and 'what were we thinking?' moments along the way.

Family, food, fun and being frugal (though not always by choice) are our passions. We like to learn, change, evolve and share in new things together. So we want to share with you too and keep a little written history of our 'growing up' adventures along the way. Thanks for joining us!
