Consider this a little horn-tooting, but this week I was SO honored to be featured on a couple of fabulous national blogs! Fitness Magazine (pretty much the only fitness magazine I actually read and find relevant) featured me in their 'Fit Blogger We Love' series on their Fit Stop blog!

Dark Chocolate Raspberry Cupcakes
Remember that one time earlier this week when I professed my love for all things vanilla? And then just a few days later I made something screaming with dark chocolate goodness? Because that's now. This is real life y'all - welcome to 38 weeks of pregnancy where everything sounds good the second you even so as mention it's name. Case in point: dark chocolate. FEED ME. I WANT. I NEED. Gimme gimme gimme. When it comes to cupcakes I have to say that I totally ... continue reading...
No-Bake Banana Cream Cheesecake for Two
I made something for you. Well, for you and me. There has to be two in the equation, you see... I made the crust with Corn Flakes because honestly I didn't have any Ritz crackers or graham crackers in the house. The result? Super crunchy and delightful...and a decision that Corn Flakes are now the new black. Seriously. I'll probably never eat them for breakfast, but I suppose one can never say never, right? Also, I kind of sort of lied. On accident. You DO have the bake ... continue reading...
I Wonder…
...what labor will be like... ...how I'll actually know I'm in labor... ...if I'll really be able to do it without medication... ...what hearing his first cries will feel like... ...if breastfeeding will work out (Lord knows I'm going to do everything in my power to make sure it does)... ...what seeing my husband hold our baby will feel like... ...what it's going to be like to look into our little guy's eyes for the first time... ...if he'll have my husband's dimples... ...if I'll just ... continue reading...
Perfect Mini Chicken Meatloaves
We interrupt the oops-I-made-nothing-but-sweets episode of Valentine's week to bring you this ridiculously easy, healthy, awesome recipe. Get ready guys - it's only a 2-photo post but I promise these will make your heart sing! I have to be honest here and say that I didn't actually plan on sharing this recipe with you guys. Not because I'm feeling stingy, but because this was just a weeknight dinner for us that I happened to photograph and then decided that I was in love with. All I'm ... continue reading...
Our Denver Babymoon
This past weekend Nate surprised me with a little babymoon getaway, which means of course that he is a) the sweetest husband ever, b) very very sneaky with his surprises, and c) awesome in every way possible. He booked us a room at The Inverness Hotel & Conference Center in Englewood, CO. It was far enough away from home to be considered a trip, but still close enough that staying one night was an easy feat. Besides, since I could *technically* go into labor at any point in time we ... continue reading...
Puffy Vanilla Bean Snickerdoodles
I never thought I'd hear myself say this, but I'm starting to become a vanilla girl through and through. Who knows when this happened? I mean, it could be the ridiculous amount of love I have for a heaping bowl of Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla ice cream. It could be the fact that most store-bought chocolate cakes taste, well, sort of like cardboard. I mean, I love me some chocolate - don't get me wrong. But as much as I've turned into a vanilla girl, I think the blame probably ... continue reading...
Sugar Cookie Sandwiches with Triple Berry Cream Cheese Frosting
Psssssssssst...tomorrow's Valentine's Day. You know, just in case you've been absent from blogging, commerce, TV, or just life in general for the past few weeks. I feel like I hear and see this all the time, but Nate and I are not really into Valentine's Day; we like to celebrate our love for one another year round (cheese alert!). But that doesn't mean that it's bad to get into the spirit! And let's face it: any time that's an excuse to bake, eat, and bury my face in chocolate is a ... continue reading...
Baked Maple Apple Pie Cups
Remember that one time when I made pecan baklava cups? I've since become a girl obsessed. Obsessed with making things in cups fashioned out of good old fashioned crescent dough. Obsessed with the 15-minute wonders that pop out of the oven when they're done. Obsessed with the burned mouths that immediately follow due to a lack of self-control. OK, maybe not obsessed with the burned mouth part. Although I've made noises that my dogs have never heard before and apologized to ... continue reading...
Quinoa Stuffed Mushrooms
Man oh man do I love me some stuffed mushrooms. Honestly you could probably stuff them with just about anything and I'd show up at your door, drooling and ready to eat. That's incentive to make some, right? Wait, no? It's not? Forget I said it then. But I do love stuffed mushrooms - I can't and I won't apologize for that! I remember once upon a time when Nate and I first started dating he was adamant about the fact that he? He did NOT like mushrooms. They were gross, they ... continue reading...
Thoughts on Almost-Mommyhood
First things first, almost-mommyhood has made me love lists. Oh my gosh do I love them! It's about the only way I can tame my brain into thinking straight these days... I can't believe - seriously CAN.NOT. believe - that we are about to have a baby. At 37 weeks today I'm technically full-term and could have him at any point in time, and that reality will randomly come and slap me across the face several times a day. I'll find myself both terrified and ridiculously anxiously happy to ... continue reading...
Creamy Banana Chocolate Spread
I've been totally slacking on the banana usage in our house. It's true, and so sad. See here's the thing: I normally make smoothies all the livelong day with bananas and am a happy camper. BUT I've been eating eggs with various mix-ins and whole wheat toast for breakfast every day to appease my gestational diabetes. I miss my smoothies. And I miss my bananas. T-minus 3 weeks (ish) until they re-enter my world again! Hold the phone...why was I telling you that story ... continue reading...
