Purchase tickets at the link in my bio, and use code: ALYSSA50 for 50% off exhibit tickets.
exhibit is now open at through the end of 2026, and it is a MUST-VISIT. It is so extremely well-done, and it offers a unique perspective into the life of Anne Frank and the horrors of WW2 that we all must bear witness to. Recommended for ages 10+, and there are differentiated audio guides for both children and adults. Chicago is only the second city the exhibition has been to, so take advantage of this unique and important opportunity!

**Discount does NOT apply to museum entry, but Anne Frank: The Exhibition entrance only.

Life isn’t always easy, and it certainly doesn’t always look this perfect. 📸 Take the pictures that help you remember the ‘why’, and the beauty of it all, during those harder times. At the end of the day, no matter how frustrated I get, how late we are to school, or how many legos aren’t cleaned up — this is all that matters. These people; this feeling of peace. And I’m forever grateful for these captured memories because time is flying by way too fast. 🙏🏻

Happy official start to gardening season to all who celebrate! 👩🏻‍🌾

I’ve been gardening since I was 10, and I’m not sure why I just started doing this hack for my pots, but it’s a game changer! This hack works for potted herbs, flowers, and plants, but if you’re planting perennials in ground, your hole will need to be deeper. No matter how you garden, get out there and give it a shot. Touch some dirt! Enjoy! 🌱🌼🐝🦋

Happy 3rd birthday to everyone’s baby, Birdie girl. 🐦 🐶 You’re velcroed to me even more than my humans, and I couldn’t be more honored for the job. You came into our lives when I needed you most, and we couldn’t imagine our lives without you. You’re really starting to mature (aka listen), and please G-d it will only continue for many, many more years! 🎂🎂🎂

**These are just a few photos from our photoshoot with that I made my family do as my birthday present. I LOOOVE THEM! 😭😍

Earth Day is this Wednesday, April 22, but you can make choices that help the Earth every single day. 🌎 And it’s not all or nothing! One small action can make a huge difference. Here are just a few things you can do at home: ⬇️

1) ❌ Leave out the leaf blowers. Don’t use them, and ask your landscapers not to either. They disrupt and harm important pollinators that are still hibernating from the winter before they’re ready to wake up!

2) ❌ Don’t mow until May! I know spring yard cleanup is enticing as the temps warm, but by holding out until May to mow, you allow early spring pollinators access to some much needed Dandelions and Wild Violets in your yard. You may also be protecting baby animals that may hide in your taller grass.

3) ❌ Avoid fertilizing your lawn! Fertilizer harms, and can even k!ll, important pollinators and animals who frequent your yard. I promise you can still have a gorgeous yard without fertilizer. Just ask my neighbors!

4) 👍👍 Plant NATIVE POLLINATORS when gardening! That means look for flowers and plants that are local to your area. Native plants are easier to maintain as well! You can find these tagged at your local nursery or garden center. Just ask!

5) 👍👍 Plant MILKWEED! Milkweed is the only host plant for Monarch butterflies, which are an endangered species. By planting milkweed, we can help the population from becoming extinct. Check for the milkweed that is native to your area. And if you don’t want Common Milkweed to spread, you can always plant it in pots. Make sure to have plenty of flowering plants as well for the butterflies too!
