AT THE WATER’S EDGE:
LIVING LIFE AND LEARNING ALL I CAN ALONG THE WAY
Journey with Me
Hi there! My name is Dana. I created this space as a place to share the things I learn along this journey I call life. I am a Jesus follower, wife, twin mom and dog mom. I work in marketing/sales analytics and I’m a sort of Jane of All Trades, interested in all things nature, gardening, cooking, crafting, traveling, exploring and learning new things. This blog is a conglomeration of my interests, hobbies, life and life lessons. Thanks for stopping by!

I’ve been on a mission to switch up my Pizza Nights a bit. Last week I decided to venture out and try a Thin Crust Pizza, which turned out very well. This week, I decided to try making Calzones: an undertaking that was also met with delicious results! Tom said it was “pretty good” after

Due to my “spring break” vacation at the beginning of the month, I had to delay the start of my garden by a couple weeks. It’s probably not a bad thing, seeing as though we’ve had a very cold spring thus far. However, today I was finally able to officially start my vegetable garden! I

Our long awaited family vacation has come and gone, but we created some lasting memories while we were there! We spent a week out in Colorado – most of the time in Breckenridge with a little time in Denver at the end. I think we had a total of 19 family members out there at

In about 36 hours, we leave for our long-awaited family ski trip out west! I’ve been looking forward to this trip since Christmastime, when it all started to fall into place so that almost my entire dad’s side of the family will be able to spend some time on vacation together in Colorado. If I

I like it when the general population gets engaged in astronomy, as well as any opportunities to learn new things myself. This past Friday was one of the best clear

This is probably the most basic meal that I make. The very simplest version of Broccoli Pasta is actually Tom’s invention, and it’s how he got me to start eating broccoli! There are multiple ways to spice this up and make it interesting, but if you’re really in a time crunch, try this super easy
