I remember when I was in college my roommates and I would head to the store and stock up on the essentials: toilet paper, chicken Ramen, coffee and Special K cereal. I don't know what it was, but Special K ended up being the only cereal we ever bought. I like to think because it was semi-healthy without being grainy and gritty, but honestly it was probably because it was the one thing we could all agree on. That and chicken Ramen. One of my favorite advertisements on TV right now is ... continue reading...
Puppy Love
This face. I love it. Y'all, I love my little boy so much. I love how he's started saying, "MA MA MA MA MA MA" even though it doesn't count because he's not trying to say it to me (yet). I love that he throws his body around in his exersaucer, only ever wants to be standing and jumping, makes faces with every bite of food (before he lunges for another one), and loves being naked more than anything in the world. I love him. But there was a time when Nate and I were ... continue reading...
Pumpkin Quinoa Energy Bites
I may or may not have recently purchased the ONE THING that my little kitchen has been without for too long: a mini muffin pan. Yes, I know I'm late to the game and yes, I know I've been missing out. I just couldn't justify the $10 purchase when I needed so many more important things like nail polish, chocolate chips or a billionth pair of running shorts. Clearly I have my priorities in order. It's kind of like the fact that I have asked for a pair of cowboy boots for my birthday ... continue reading...
Mezamashii – Running and Otherwise
Mezamashii: Japanese for brilliant or eye-opening. Ever since I was a little kid I've always had a fascination with foreign languages. I took 14 years of Spanish and can honestly say that some things I understand better in another language. There's just something more romantic about understanding the same word in a different form - it's more raw, more beautiful, more mysterious. Fun fact: the song "Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes" I learned in Spanish first and never knew that it ... continue reading...
Sweet Potato Bread
When I was a working girl in the traditional sense (i.e. before I became a mom and only had to work from 8-5) I had an amazing boss (hey Shannon!) who had literally just come back from maternity leave from having twins. TWINS. Can you even imagine? That is, if you don't have twins, can you even imagine?! I'll be honest, I'm down with whatever the good Lord wants to provide for us in the way of kiddos, and I don't think he'll give us more than we can handle, but I hope that he's on the same ... continue reading...
Browned Butter Toffee Brownie Bites
I know it's my job as a food blogger to make a bunch of stuff and then tell you to MAKE.IT.ASAP and wax poetic about how incredible it tastes. You guys? If ever the time came to actually listen to me and make something, this is IT. These bites (which can also be made in a pan and cut into traditional brownies) literally made me stop and caused my eyes to roll back in my head in ecstasy. The browned butter, the toffee bites, the chocolate. OH. MY. GOSH. I quite ... continue reading...
Today’s Confession
Today. Friday the 12th. Today I woke up tired and grumpy. Frustrated. Cranky about the fact that it seems like (and I know this sounds ridiculous) every other blogger in the world is on some awesome blogging trip right now. Everyone except for me. But then I stopped. I took a minute to look around me - at my incredible, handsome husband. Our precious baby boy. Our sweet, loving pups. The house that we live in, our amazing families, and all the things that we have been ... continue reading...
Brown Butter Peaches & Triple Ginger Biscuits
This should be illegal. Really. I mean, I totally nullified the healthful benefits of peaches in one fell swoop and I don't even care. Don't get me wrong, fresh peaches are probably one of my favorite things ever. Give me a Fredericksburg peach and then don't try to pry it from my greedy little fingers because I'll never let it go. I'll let the juice drip down my face and get pulp everywhere and not even care. But add a little brown butter and myOHmy you have ... continue reading...
Garlicky Quinoa & Baby Kale
Can we all just agree that any post starting off with this much garlic wins for the day? Lately we've been working really hard to get back into the routine of eating well around here. For the longest time with the move we were eating quick meals at either fast food restaurants or ones that were FULL of pasta and carby goodness at home. Now please understand: I {heart} carbs in all forms, especially if it's pasta. But the waistline? Not so much. As we've become more and ... continue reading...
7 Months Old!
As I'm sure many of you know, a lot can happen in 7 months, but it's also such a short period of time. Yesterday Wes turned 7 months old and I'm just in awe of how fast the time has flown and how much he's grown up since he was born. My little dude is so full of life and energy these days, constantly on the move and always exploring. I think his biggest struggle is that he's not crawling yet and therefore not able to move on his own - but all he really wants to do is walk! If we're ... continue reading...
White Jacket Required: Pumpkin Whoopee Pies
Once upon a time there was a girl who worked in a cubicle looking for a way to share her love of food with the world. She started a blog, wrote about 10 posts, and then forgot about it. One day she came across an article in a 2009 feature in Self Magazine that featured bloggers' tips for staying healthy over the holidays and ended up going to Eat, Live, Run - a (at the time) healthy living blog about a girl named Jenna. And her life was changed forever. In case you didn't know - ... continue reading...
Happy Friday
For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith —and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Ephesians 2:8-10 ... continue reading...
