Hi there! We’re Jaci and Brittany — two best friends fueled by books, caffeine, and the chaos of raising 6 kids between us. Somewhere between spilled lattes, bedtime stories, and the occasional missing shoe, we realized we needed a space to share the things we love most: reading, coffee adventures, parenting wins (and fails), and all the little moments that make life messy and hilarious. So, here we are—a blog born from friendship, caffeine, and the beautiful chaos of everyday life.

Here on the blog, we love to:

Read: From Romance to Fantasy and everything in between, we dive into anything that keeps us turning pages (and sometimes questioning our life choices).

Sip: We hunt down the coziest coffee shops, because caffeine is basically a survival tool, sweet treats are just a plus!

Share Life: Whether it’s parenting fails, small victories, or just trying to survive the day with minimal meltdowns, we share the messy, funny, and heartwarming moments of life with our kids.

This space is our little corner to celebrate books, caffeine, chaos, and all the hilarious (and occasionally messy) moments of life. Think of it as part book club, part coffee crawl, and part “parenting survival guide” with a side of humor. We hope you leave here with a laugh, a new book recommendation, or the comforting reminder that none of us have it all together—and that’s perfectly okay.

Parenting is a wild ride, and life is messy, loud, and full of surprises. Somehow, in the middle of the chaos, my bester (best friend/sister) and I realized we wanted a space to share the things we love most: books, coffee, parenting stories, and real conversations about life, friendship, and trying (sometimes failing) to keep it all together.

This blog is our little corner of sanity and fun—a mix of book recommendations, coffee adventures, parenting laughs, and a few honest reflections about life with kids. Fun fact: we’ve been best friends for 20 years and it all stemmed from some hometown pizza—because what’s life without a little extra weirdness and whimsy? Pull up a chair, grab your favorite mug, and join us as we navigate this beautifully messy, caffeinated, book-filled adventure called life.
