Trying to keep my promise to myself and read more/scroll less this year and just finished The God of the Woods. It was a non-creepy thriller that kept me turning the page.

I […] The post What I’m Reading || THE GOD OF THE WOODS appeared first on Southern State of Mind Blog by Heather.| Southern State of Mind Blog by Heather

Thanks for sticking with me as we meander through the lake house a.k.a.- Ralph Lauren’s Fish Camp. Today I am sharing a little “nook” that has become the coffee corner. This room sits off the kitchen and living room and it is by far my favorite little spot to camp out with a cup of […]| Southern State of Mind Blog by Heather
We had another week of snow days last week and since I was cooped up at home, figured it was the perfect time to make the Valentine Moss Topiary. I had dreamt this up in my head and was so happy with the final result. The best part is that it only cost me $1.25.

We’ve all heard of beach reads, but what about a fireside read? I have had The Frozen River on my “to be read list” for quite awhile, but the timing has never felt right to want to read it.
