    Beauty in Brokenness: What an Injury Taught Me (Thursday Thoughts)

    February 1, 2018

        I was flat on my back struggling to remember how to make my lungs, that seemed to have temporarily gone on vacation, take in the air my mind was desperately in need of. The first thing I remember thinking was “What just happened?” because the it all happened so fast. Immediately after that when my eyes focused on the figures standing above me I registered the blond Gabriel and his group of athletic-looking friends behind him standing by their car that was clearly geared up for a day of trail riding. Being a single girl my thoughts (obviously) turned straight to wondering why these things only seem to…

    Snapshot Sundays + Saying Goodbye to January

    January 28, 2018

    And just like that January is quickly coming to its end and February is coming up. So far this year has already had its ups and downs. On the up side of things I’ve been loving being back in the States and living near so much convenience. I’ve been driving more than ever and, as a food blogger, to have so many options for grocery shopping and prop shopping is really nice, I have to admit. Although, doing so much more grocery shopping and adulting has been a bit hilarious because I’m like “Dude, groceries are freaking expensive!” I also did some skiing, I’m getting better at yoga, the gym is…

    Thursday Things

    January 25, 2018

      It’s Thursday again you guys and I’m continuing this little series of sharing just random little things from my life. I’ve been really liking these. So here are today’s things I’m loving this most adorable ever gift from my big sister and her hubby. Funny story, when I opened it at Christmas everyone was asking if I knew what it was and, me thinking they were asking if I knew what it was supposed to look like, I said “Of course, it’s a camera lens.” Everyone thought that I thought it was a real lens rather than a thermos and got worried I’d be disappointed. These kind of moments…

    Thursday Thoughts: On Comparison + Being Individual

    January 18, 2018

      “When you’re 20 you care what everyone thinks, when you’re 40 you stop caring what everyone thinks, when you’re 60 you realize no one was ever thinking about you in the first place. You have enemies? Good. That means you’ve stood up for something, sometime in your life.” -Winston Churchill Happy Thursday my friends. I know this isn’t my typical kind of post but if there’s anything I realized about myself while taking some time away from posting regularly, for many reasons and most of them out of my control, it’s that I want to share more and connect more with you guys.

    My Top 10 Packing Tips For Europe in the Fall

    October 27, 2017

    Hey Guys! Today I thought I’d share something a little different than my typical recipe of the day. As you know, I’m getting ready to travel to Europe this weekend (depending on when you read this post) and I thought you guys might be interested in some of my packing tips. You know what? Even though I’ve traveled a lot this year it’s been a few months now and I’ve realized I’m pretty rusty at packing. That’s why I made a packing checklist to print out and check off as I gather my stuff. I’m also sharing a FREE download PDF version down at the bottom so be sure to…

    Thoughts on Time + Holiday Anxiety (Collab with Jord Wood Watches)

    October 23, 2017

    “Time is very slow for those who wait, very fast for those who are scared, very long for those who lament, very short for those who celebrate, but for those who love time is eternal”  -William Shakespeare   Hey again, my friends! Is it already this time of year? Ever since I can remember my dad has had a saying about October. He says, “Once it hits October the year’s over.” and every year I’m reminded of the truth in this statement. Everything seems to go by in such a flash this time of year and with the holidays approaching, time itself somehow seems different, doesn’t it? Sometimes I feel…

    My 6 Favorite Things About Fall + Autumn Sister Photoshoot

    October 13, 2017

    Happy Friday, my lovely friends! How has your season been going? I must say I’m loving every moment of it. Seriously, there’s just something about this season that puts me on top of the world and gets me inspired. This year is extra special for me because it’s the first Autumn in 4 years that’s been during matched up with the Holidays (You know, because I’ve been living in South America) So recently one of my inspirations has been to improve my photography skills outside of food and I figured what better way to do that than to take some photos. That’s when I went and grabbed my camera, recruited…

  • For some reason I find it so much less fun to post savory things during the month of December. Oh yeah, that's because all I want to do is share Christmas cookies! Of course that's not very practical so here's something savory.

So traditional Mexican tacos are always delicious, but if you're ever in the mood for some fusion these Asian inspired tacos are a fun way to change things up!

  • When it's the Christmas season and you're feeling real extra.... ❄️🍫🎄 Most of the time guys, I eat such basic meals. On the other hand, sometimes I like to be a little rebellious and mix a bunch of stuff together that might weird people out. 😝 Look, I'm not going to try to explain my strangeness when there's people paying good money to eat snails in France, bugs in Asia, and goodness knows what else. Relatively speaking I think this is pretty tame. 😂 
In the bowl -> @naturespathorganic pumpkin waffle, @oatyeahoats yogurt, mixed berries, peanut butter, chocolate, cacoa nibs, pumpkin seeds, and a few bits of a @larabar. Told ya I was feeling extra.😉

  • It's official, the true cold weather has arrived and I'm not exactly thrilled about it. 🥶🥶🥶🥶 I keep thinking that if we had snow on the ground it would make it seem a little more worth it. Although, then I remember that I have to drive in it and I'm totally content to wait a few more days to get our inevitable blanket of white. 
Basically, all I wanna do is snuggle up in a blanket and eat cozy comfort food while watching cheesy Hallmark movies. Oats have been a huge go-to. What's your favorite cold weather breakfast? 🥣☕🥞🥯🍠🥑🍎🍌 Btw, recipe for these PB banana oats on the blog
  • It's December my friends, crazy right? I'm still trying to figure out how the year can pass so quickly but I'm also so excited that the most wonderful month of the year is here. 
The downtown area where I live just came alive with sparkling Christmas lights everywhere you look. Oh, and I think my neighbors are all trying to outdo each other on decorating their homes. It's very entertaining to say the least.

I know I've shared a lot of sweet stuff lately but it is the holidays. I'll be baking these this week because their a family favorite and a traditional treat I make every year.

  • I have to ask, can you think of anything that’s more fun than mini-sized foods, ’cause I’m having a hard time coming up with one right now? These are an absolute must-make you guys! The kids were flipping out over the fact that I made baby cinnamon rolls and they disappeared super fast. I think my brother’s are still investigating who took the last one. Since I think it was one of them they get kudos for faking innocence pretty well.

So you are going to try these right? You’ll be everyone’s bff if you do because these are a major crowd-pleaser!

  • In my opinion cookies are best right out of the oven every time. The problem with that is that the chewiest cookie recipes are far too soft to hold when they are warm.

The answer to this terrible life problem is to make your cookies deep dish in a big skillet or in a bunch of small ones. Then you have to top it all off with some ice cream and you have a dream dessert that is guaranteed satisfy even the most voracious sweet out there.

  • HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!! It's here guys, how did that happen? I hope you're planning to spend the day with loved ones and not stressing the small stuff. If you're someone who obsesses over making everything perfect (I'm so very guilty of this), just remember, they probably won't remember how perfect the meal was. What everyone remembers is the time spent together and the joy of the season. 
My favorite tradition from my childhood is watching Miracle on 34th Street while we start prepping things for the feast. Then we move on to the parade and talk about how it's never as good as it used to be when we were little. Although, I can't help but wonder if that's because I'm just getting older and the balloons don't hold the same appeal. 😜

This year I did most of the prep the day before so I could sit and enjoy my morning coffee because # adultingpriorities 
What's your favorite tradition on Thanksgiving?
  • Can I just say that dealing with chestnuts is not exactly the most fun task in the world, which I’m sure any of you who’ve done it would agree with me.

They’re just sort of high maintenance compared to what you get from them. However, I really like using them and I’ve gotta say I’ve dealt with much worse ingredients in my food blogging past so it’s not too bad to mess with them a few times a year. Plus, you all know how much I love to get into themes and stuff, and come on, chestnuts and Christmastime go together like pb&j! Am I right? Am I right???? Okay, but aside from the chestnuts, this soup is a breeze to make and it has so many of the flavors that I love about the holiday season. I really wanted to get the chestnut flavor in there so I added quite a bit.
