WOW it’s been a while since I blogged. I was writing so much at the beginning of this year, and now, here I am at the end of June and I haven’t written since January. I’ve missed this space and I’ve missed you all! The main reason I haven’t written since January, you ask? As …
Charcuterie is how we celebrated my 24th birthday this past year: for like 4 days straight. It’s just the best kind of food, right?! A massive board for 2 to pick from, with some wine…you can even put dessert right on the same board as dinner is! If you’re entertaining, you might be wondering how …
I’ll cut to the chase. I lost my period for 7 years due to anorexia. As a result of my illness, I lost 80 pounds in 4 months, and my periods vanished, when I was 15. Over the next 7 years, I was visited by Ms. Flow a total of 3 or 4 times for …
My husband Johnny and I started dating 6 years ago. It’s wild to think about that; it feels both like we’ve known each other forever, so much longer, and like we started dating yesterday. What I can say is that being married to Johnny is the second greatest gift God has ever given me, next …

You know what I mean. To be hidden. How do you hide? Maybe you’re shy. Ever since you can remember you’d be praying for a teacher that didn’t call on the kids in class who didn’t raise their hand. You’d sit at the back of the classroom and hide in a notebook or slumped down …
…And keep dating your spouse. Forever. Isn’t it true that we should date our spouses forever? That is a huge part of the commitment in marriage. It is a commitment to never stop dating, never stop pursuing, never stop loving. But dating doesn’t have to be expensive or fancy. Heck – it doesn’t even have …
Can’t only obese people have binge eating disorder? I ate a lot of snacks with friends at movie night and felt overly full. Was that a binge? Binges are like 5000+ calories, right? My 1000-calorie raid-the-pantry fest doesn’t count? As a non-expert, but someone with first-hand experience with this disorder, speaking with other women with …
