How is everyone's weekend going? We are having a nice Memorial Day Weekend, hanging out with my whole family at the beach house that my brother and sister-in-law rented for the weekend. I'm not mad about it at all! I had every intention of posting this recipe on Friday, so that you could get your ducks in a row to make it to enjoy over this holiday week[...]
We got back from our AMAZING trip to Glacier National Park late Sunday night and jumped RIGHT back into reality Monday morning. (Because, adulating.) We did as much as we could squeeze in during the 3 quick days we were there, including lots of sightseeing, hikes, bike rides, and of course, more than our fair share of eating! I plan to tell ya all about[...]
Travis and I are about to take off on a fun adventure to Glacier National Park in Montana! I wanted to do something extra special for his 30th birthday, and after pressing him for a couple of weeks on what he wanted, he finally revealed that he really wanted to take a trip to Glacier Park to check off a bucket list item and start off his 30's on a high no[...]
Well, Travis's 30th birthday has come and gone, but the celebrating continues in our house this week! Our puppies are turning 2 tomorrow, and we are those people making a "thing" about it. Partly because...why not? Those that know us know that our doggies are very much at the center of our lives right now, so we (I) feel the need to spoil them and make[...]
Today, I am sharing a new flavorful and delicious entree salad just in time for Mother's Day! I don't know about yours, but my mom LOVES a big entree salad. She will usually get hooked on one flavor combo and stick with that same salad until she discovers a new one she likes. Well, move over Strawberry Spring Salad, there's a new sweet and savory salad i[...]
Travis's 30th (!!!) birthday is tomorrow! I mentioned it last week, but May is a big month of birthdays in our house. In fact, all 4 of us (dogs included) will celebrate a special day this month. It's pretty much a requirement if you want to live in our house ;) To be totally honest, I am having a harder time with the fact that I am turning 29 at the end[...]
I've said it before, but I'll say it again....if I had to choose one cuisine to eat for the rest of my life, I would easily pick Mexican food. Yes, I would miss Italian, mainly for the pizza, but there are SO many different directions you can take with Mexican food, and they are ALL delicious! Plus, I have found that Mexican food is easily adaptable for a[...]
Happy Monday! Another weekend has gone in a flash! Travis and I drove out to Tucson, Arizona last Thursday and had a great weekend visiting his family and celebrating the marriage of some great friends that Travis met in college. We ate well, relaxed a bit, and enjoyed some quality family time. I usually dread the drive to and from Tucson, but for so[...]
I started this little 2-part series last week by explaining that I am a little bit of a food hoarder. I don't know what it is, but I feel more at ease in the kitchen when I have my sacred staples on hand! By always having these items on hand, I can rest assured knowing that I can whip up a healthy, hearty meal on a whim, any time! Knowing what staples I n[...]
Who doesn't love pizza? Travis loves pizza almost as much as he loves nachos (that's saying something) so he get's pretty cranky if we go too long without a bonafide pizza night. So, we (I) go to great lengths around our house to make sure "we" are getting our pizza cravings satisfied. From cauliflower crust, to gluten-free flour blends, to these Pizza Stuf[...]
