beauty faves (which I may or may not know how to use)

In my 20's, I'd prance around makeup-less and dewy skinned, and be all LOOK HOW MUCH COLLAGEN MY SKIN IS PRODUCING. (jk, I didn't even know the word collagen back then. Because I didn't have to.)  And despite being often without makeup in my current life (rocking skin that is NOT in it's 20's), I've realized that I'm past the point of fresh-faced Sherri who doesn't need makeup, and firmly in the "aw honey, go put some concealer on, mkay" phase of life.

must-have jacket for spring

This style tip is coming straight to you from the runways of....my mind. Which may not be as fancy as a fashion week runway, but STILL. Take one look at these metallic jackets and tell me you don't want one too. 

(Unless you don't enjoy being all HEY LOOK AT ME, I'M WEARING A SILVER JACKET. Then you actually may not want one. I still love you though.)

spring staples : splurge vs steal

Guys! It's Sherri's Famous (not really) Splurge vs. Steal edition!
And YOU get a steal, and YOU get a steal, and YOU get a steal!

(Don't mind me, just over here pretending to be Oprah, again.)

In honor of the fact that it's basically the dead of summer now, I'm gonna share a few of  my warm weather favorites today. First I'll show you a splurge-y option that will definitely cause your significant other to question your spending habits. Next, I'll show you my "steal" option, which essentially qualifies as INVESTING your money and making financially responsible decisions.

do good with resupply

If you know me in real life, then you know that I'm a big ol' bleeding heart, and I LOVE to give back. NOT because I'm so amazing, generous, or unselfish (I'm not, just ask John), but more so because I know exactly what it means to receive that kind of "good" in your life. You see, not only am I a former social worker, but I'm also a former foster kid. One who's been the recipient of more than one bag of donated clothes, shoes, toys, and almost anything else you can think of.

(last minute) vday for him

Y'all can just thank my extreme procrastination and inability to multitask for the fact that this is going up the DAY BEFORE Valentine's Day.  So, lean in close....this is what we're gonna do. Should you be an extreme procrastinator like me (duh. you're my people), then we're taking a note from the husband's playbook. We'll buy the gift, and then PRINT A PHOTO to slip inside a valentine's card.  GENIUS.

dear boy moms

dear boy moms,

I get it. 

I. GET. IT. 

I'll be totally honest, I was team girl ALL THE WAY after having Ally Grace. She and I have always had a special bond, and I kept thinking how amazing it would be to have nothing but daughters. Because we would obviously spend our time shopping, getting our nails done, and talking about boys. (I'm not a regular mom, I'm a cool mom. Duh.)

cooking with karv

A Bo and his steak. He's basically a miniature Ron Swanson.

Guys if there's one thing you know about me by now, it's this: convenience is my love language. Along with Anthropologie, marshmallows, and Starbucks, #letsbehonest.

Combine convenience with healthy eating, and Sherri is HERE FOR IT. (Sherri is apparently also here for referring to herself in third person.) 

When Karv reached out to ask if I would try their subscription service, I really couldn't say yes fast enough.  Karv is a monthly subscription service that delivers the finest-quality U.S. meats and oven-ready entrées, straight to your doorstep.
