Light Cheesy Shrimp Pasta – 21 Day Fix Approved

July 5, 2015 by Melissa

I'm a week into the 21 day fix! So far, it's going pretty well. The workouts are tough but 30 minutes is definitely manageable. The thing I miss the most is knowing I am *able to* say yes to things (does that make any sense?!) I'm used to going to happy hour & having a glass of wine or two, going to dinner and ordering what…

Light & Creamy Roasted Garlic Hummus

June 29, 2015 by Melissa

I have a pretty large obsession with hummus. In snack form? Perfect. For a light lunch? Yum. Incorporated into a dinner? Even better. This past weekend, we went to our friend's going away party and I needed something to whip up quickly and bring with me. After rummaging through my cabinet, hummus came to mind, and who doesn't like hummus? (If you don't like it, tell…

Homemade Air Fresheners

June 25, 2015 by Melissa

However, the downfall of candles are that: You cannot leave them burning when you leave your house They eventually die out :( Those beautiful little jars can be pretty pricey You can do so much with…

Swimming in the Sea at Sunrise; Jacksonville, FL

June 24, 2015 by Melissa

This weekend was one for the books, to say the least. I was lucky enough to spend a few seasons throughout the past 4 years living abroad in London and have made some pretty awesome friends along the way. This past weekend, 2 of my friends came down and we reunited on the American soil of Jacksonville, Florida. Jonny, David, and I at JAX Beach Jonny,…

Happy FridYAY! This weekend, some of my friends from London are coming in! I'm extremely excited. I'm not sure exactly what we're going to do, but they're such a good time, it's bound to be a great weekend!
