Snapshot Sundays + Saying Goodbye to January
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 basically becoming my…

Thursday Things
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 are always hilarious.…

Thursday Thoughts: On Comparison + Being Individual
“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. If you’re here for recipes that’s great also. You…

My Top 10 Packing Tips For Europe in the Fall
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 get it if…

Thoughts on Time + Holiday Anxiety (Collab with Jord Wood Watches)
“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 completely amazed at…

My 6 Favorite Things About Fall + Autumn Sister Photoshoot
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 my little sister,…

Summer 2017 Recap & Thoughts on New Beginnings
Hey my lovelies! I hope you’re all getting ready for a wonderful weekend ahead. As September is nearly halfway through and I’ve still been pretty absent here on the blog I thought it was time for a little catch-up.

So without too much further talk let’s get to the recap………. May Yes, I realize that May is not technically a month of summer but as I haven’t posted regularly since then I…
