Hi! I'm Leslie.

leslie lambert, author of lambertslately.com.

I'm from Tuscaloosa, Alabama. That's where I graduated from the University of Alabama (Roll Tide!) and met my husband Noah, whom I married in 2007. Shortly after our daughter Emmie was born in 2012, we moved to south Mississippi, where we're living the dream with Emmie (now 12) and Jackson (8).

When I'm not blogging, I love working out, reading, crafting, volunteering, spending time with my kids, and catching up on the latest binge-worthy shows with my husband.

How The Blog Came To Be

I started this blog in 2009 at the height of the hobby blogging trend. At that point, I read a few other blogs in my free time and just thought it would be a fun experiment for us to look back on later. I had no idea how this little blog would change my life in just a few short years.

I started out blogging about our family and the things we were doing in our lives. Over the years, it has transformed into a place where I share how I'm making our home a functional, loving space.

What You'll Find on Lamberts Lately

What started as a hodgepodge of my passions has become a place for me to share what I've learned in almost 2 decades of making my house a home. On this blog, you'll find family-friendly recipes from my kitchen, our personal DIY home projects, organization ideas, cleaning tips, and celebrations, both big and small. It is an absolute honor to share my insight with thousands of site visitors each day!

FAQs

Yes! I try to focus on recipes that are quick and easy to make. I also put an emphasis on readily available ingredients. I live in a small town with little access to specialty foods, so I know how frustrating it can be to find that perfect recipe without the ability to buy its ingredients. Here, you'll find simple meal ideas with no-fuss ingredients that your family will love.

For years, I used Photoshop to make the printables you see on my blog. I've also recently started using Canva - it's a free, easy-to-use online editing software that I highly recommend for beginners. It even lets me bring you editable printables, like my habit tracking printables or my time blocking pages.

I get this question more than any other...if you're asking it, you're probably using my cleaning schedule printables. That's an acronym for Baseboards, Walls, Doors, and Windows. I clean all of these at the same time in my cleaning checklists, and instead of typing it out every time, I just abbreviate!
