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 …
OKAY, SO. When I found out that the latest and greatest TikTok recipe trend was baked oats, I was a little… well, if I’m honest, peeved. I mean… I’ve been making baked oats for years. And it’s really not rocket science. Honestly, ask my husband: the amount of oatmeal I consume is pretty absurd. If …
Ah, winter. It’s never been my favourite season; I’m not gonna lie. I’ve never liked outdoor sports of any kind, I despise being cold, it takes a bit more effort to go for runs/walks, and, well, it’s not cottage season. However, if there’s one thing I like about winter, it’s the excuse to cozy up …
Smoothie Bowls. They’re a mood… but they can be hard to perfect. I love smoothie bowls for breakfast, or even lunch. And it’s funny, because I often crave them in the winter… is that weird? My ideal day of food would be a cozy oatmeal bowl topped with peanut butter, cinnamon, and chopped apple in …
Read Part One. The month before my wedding was when I really started to consider what meals would look like every day when Johnny and I were married. I wasn’t about to cook him the dinners of my orthorexic past—usually 1/2 cup chicken breast boiled in water with some spinach and maaaybe a 1/4 avocado …
Trigger Warning: This post will discuss weight to some degree, though I do not discuss specific numbers. This post also discusses menstrual cycles. I do not intend to trigger and refrain from using what I believe to be triggering language, but please do not read if you are easily triggered at this time. It’s almost …
I’m a 3pm snack kind of girl. Usually for something sweet–but my tastebuds are used to a healthy sort of sweet. As much as I love a donut, cookie, or brownie now and again, this wouldn’t be so healthy for an everyday kind of snack. But this moist (23% of you cringed; sorry), rich-tasting, fudgey …
My husband and I are 6 months into marriage. We’re 24 and 22 years old with no kids and work-from-home jobs after long distance. We certainly can’t speak to married life with kids – although I do know that that will, God willing, change our schedules, the amount of time we have for one-on-one dates …
It’s a statistical fact: most of us report that we are “dissatisfied” with our bodies. It’s an overwhelming problem in the world today. According to an average of several studies, nearly 80% of teenage girls report fear of becoming fat. The same percentage of women are unhappy with their bodies by age 17.* These statistics …
Happy Weekend, my dear friends! The following “poem” of sorts is a response to the responses I received from an Instagram question I posed on my Stories recently. I asked, “What are some assumptions that you have about Christianity? Don’t worry about offending.” I felt compelled to clear up the TRUTH about these assumptions to …
