What I’ve Been Up To Lately

September 15, 2015 by Melissa
Southern Tier Beer

I'm always shocked at how quickly time goes. I mean, it feels like it was just yesterday I packed up my things in West Virginia and moved to Florida, but here we are, just hitting over our year & a half mark. Sometimes, it nice to just pause and reflect on what's going on with you right now. As a whole, I think we tend to…

Labor Day Weekend Getaway

September 13, 2015 by Melissa
Amelia Island Florida

Weekends tend to fly by lately. It's nice when one slows down a bit and you actually feel like you had some time off. This past Labor Day weekend, my mom came down to Florida to visit for 3 days. We decided to go out to have a relaxing weekend in my favorite nearby vacation spot, Amelia Island. On Friday, we stayed in Jacksonville and had…

What’s on My Nightstand; vol. 2

September 12, 2015 by Melissa
Good books to read

Is anyone else in complete denial that it's already the middle of September? Now that it's fall (even though it's still in the 90s down here in good old Florida), I thought I'd share with you what's on my reading list for this season. [if you want to read series one of What's on My Nightstand, you can do so here!] 1. Extremely Loud & Incredibly…

Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Overnight Oats

September 1, 2015 by Melissa
Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Overnight Oats

Well, it took me long enough, but I'm finally on the overnight oats boat! I love hot oatmeal so much that I didn't think it could get better... until this stuff came along! It's the perfect thing to make ahead and grab on the go. I would recommend making them only 3 days in advance, however, so if you wanted to meal prep them for your work week,…

What I Ate on Wednesday; vol. 1

August 29, 2015 by Melissa
"travel money saving tips"

One question I'm frequently asked is what I eat on a typical day-to-day basis. Sure, recipes are great, but many people want to know the more simple meals I munch on throughout the day. One series I began is my Instagram Round Up (catch up on series 1 & series 2!) but I thought if I did a simple "What I Ate on Wednesday" series, that…

Romping Around Georgetown, Washington DC

August 27, 2015 by Melissa
El Centro DF Georgetown

There's something about the familiar that's just so... refreshing. Kelcie | April | Myself | Anna | Amanda This past weekend, I traveled back up to my old stomping grounds of Washington DC for a quick 3 day trip. Some of my oldest (and dearest!) friends from high school are still living up there right outside of the city, so I spent the weekend with them…

Skinny Classic Chili

August 25, 2015 by Melissa
Skinny Chili

I'm one of those people that believes soup & winter foods can be eaten at any point of the year. Especially when it is something as tasty & comforting as chili. Chili brings me right back to when I was a student at West Virginia and my roommates and I would make a big batch and eat on it throughout the week. [We would flip between…

Meal Prep – Sweet Potato Breakfast Frittata

August 24, 2015 by Melissa
Monday Meal Prep - Sweet Potato Breakfast Fritatta

You guys are well aware for my love of meal prepping. While it may seem daunting, set aside 2 hours on a Sunday and you're set for the week! This Monday I thought I'd share with you a favorite breakfast prep of mine. Frittatas! Frittatas are basically quiche's cousin. You simply omit the crust [or, find creative healthy alternatives to crusts, like spaghetti squash!] Eggs, oatmeal,…
