  • S’MORE GRILLED CHEESE PLEASE

    S’MORE GRILLED CHEESE PLEASE

    Ok, I just want to say this is not very healthy-that’s my disclaimer, I will take no responsibility for breaking anyone’s diet. But this is a yummy treat that you can spoil yourself with every once in a while 🙂 While I was in Cincinnati my husband and I stopped by Tom + Chee. We saw…

  • MY WHOLE 30 EXPERIENCE

    MY WHOLE 30 EXPERIENCE

    So over a month ago my husband said he would like to try Whole30 to loose some weight. I had heard about Whole30 and thought maybe I could loose some weight I gained over the winter, so being a supportive wife I agreed to do it with him. We started the next day. It took…

  • CITRUS SPRITZERS

    CITRUS SPRITZERS

    One of my favorite treats lately are spritzers. It’s so easy, you just fill about 1/4 of your glass with your favorite citrus, then fill it up until about 3/4 full with your favorite 100% fruit juice. Some of my favorites are pineapple juice, pomegranate juice or apple juice. Make sure it’s 100% real juice…

  • BANANA PINA COLADA ICE CREAM (DAIRY FREE)

    BANANA PINA COLADA ICE CREAM (DAIRY FREE)

    Ok, so did you guys know that you can make ice cream with bananas?! Well, I guess I make smoothies with bananas all the time so it makes sense, I’ve just never done it before. Well, once I started on the Whole 30 eating plan I was craving treats, so I read about how you can…

  • COOKIES FOR SANTA

    COOKIES FOR SANTA

    Ok, so you probably know my obsession with the dollar aisle at Target… well, they have some great things for the holidays. The last time I was there I bought a bunch of stuff and thought it was perfect for some holiday cookies. I bought the little milk bottles, paper straws and plastic plates there. And…

    {Tomorrow is the last day to enter to win a dress of your choice from eShakti. Go here to enter} Growing up I was never a big fan of the tomato soup/ grilled cheese combo. But my husband loves it so I make it every once in a while. I made a lot of soup…

  • MASON JAR GIFTS {HOT COCOA + STIR STICK}

    MASON JAR GIFTS {HOT COCOA + STIR STICK}

    While at Target the other day I saw these peppermint stir sticks. I love peppermint in my hot cocoa so I had to get them. I thought I could take the yumminess to the next level and douse the peppermint in chocolate. I used a silicone mold I got from WholePort and simply added some…

  • LAYERED ICE CUBES

    LAYERED ICE CUBES

    We love making homemade popsicles. And the other day my 4-year-old asked if we could make some popsicle ice cubes-as he calls them. They are so easy and a perfect little treat for the summer. We used grape juice, orange juice and limeade. I just put about a teaspoon of each juice in the ice…

  • SHORTBREAD COOKIES

    SHORTBREAD COOKIES

    Recently I saw these shortbread cookies made with beet frosting and I thought they looked cool so I decided to make some like it. I decided to skip the beets and go with a raspberry, orange and lime glaze instead. I had never made shortbread cookies before and they were really easy and pretty good…
