April Wrap-Up
Whew! April is finally bidding us a farewell. With May and the beginnings of quarantine measures being lifted just on the horizon, it’s about time for my usual monthly wrap-up post. It’s definitely been a bit of a strange month, feeling like it’s been busy but not really going anywhere other than the grocery store […]
Overnight Kayak Camping on the Current River
As promised, I’m working on migrating some of my older posts from my previous blog to Amor et Vita. With the weather warming up and summer right around the corner, I thought it would be fun to revisit my first-ever kayak camping trip we took last June! I’m hoping, as many places start rolling back […]
Spring Reading List
Hello, hello! We are getting deep into the midst of spring, with flowers blooming and the weather warming up. And while spending time outside is good for the soul, given the current climate of events, there really aren’t many places to go. So I thought this would be a great time to release a spring […]

Since we live in a pretty rural area, options like DoorDash […]
Project: Chickens
Hey everyone! I mentioned in my March wrap-up post that we had gotten chickens last month. We decided to try our hand at raising our own chickens for meat because one, it’s the best way to know what is going into your food (especially meat, if you eat it) and two, while we haven’t run […]
Workout Recaps April 1st-12th
Hello! It’s about time I posted a workout recap again. As I mentioned last month in my March wrap-up post, I did something to my lower back at the beginning of the month that set me back in my plans to get into more of a workout routine. But towards the end of the month, […]
March Wrap Up
Whew! How is March over with already? Although I can’t say that I’m sorry it’s just about done with, with everything going on. I, like many other people, am patiently waiting for the news that the Coronavirus is no longer a constant threat to us, and that we are on the other side of things. […]
