There’s something about breakfast food that’s just very comforting. Call me crazy, but I prefer eggs, pancakes, and other breakfast goodies over any other meal. (Okay, not including dessert).. On the weekends, we are typically always on the go. To help cut back on eating out so often, I often find myself packing breakfasts to take along with us on car rides to our various outings.…
It’s hard to believe Christmas is less than 5 days away. Last year, I had no problem getting into the holiday spirit– however, I think it is much easier when you are up north. Down here in Florida, it is currently 67 degrees and I have my windows open. While some may consider this ideal, when it comes to this time of year, I love the…
This past weekend, one of my oldest friends got MARRIED! It was so exciting. She asked me to be her maid of honor and I happily accepted & flew out to San Diego for a quick, but much needed weekend getaway to help celebrate her special day. I’ve mentioned before that I have a lot of family out in California, so I was able to spend…
Hooray for Holiday Cookie season! Can you believe there is only 9 more days until Christmas? Where did the time go! I’m in a scramble to finish up all my shopping, baking, wrapping, and posting all my #DIYChristmas recipes/gifts to share with all of you. First up– probably my favorite Christmas cookies of all time, the Peanut Butter Blossom. I love these little bites of heaven.…
You can Buy the book here! This month is pretty hectic for everyone, so it’s not too surprising that I haven’t found much time to read. My last book review was a little over a month ago, which was not my goal! One the craziness of the holidays die down, I think the goal of reading 2 books a month will be more doable. If you’re looking…
Can anyone else believe it’s already over a week into December..? Time has been flying by recently, and I haven’t even finished fully putting up my Christmas decorations! I feel like these days I need a body double. This weekend one of my oldest friends is getting MARRIED!!! I am so excited- this is my first friend to tie the knot and I was asked to…
I’m a big fan of brunch. I don’t know how exactly to describe the love that I have for this meal besides saying that it is probably in the top 5 favorite things I enjoy doing in life. Yes, seriously. We recently just had Another Broken Egg Cafe open up here in Jacksonville, so we thought we’d give it a try. It has now become one…
Happy December! Who else already has ABC’s 25 Days of Christmas and their tree up and decorated? I live for this time of year! Being in Florida, instead of snow swept streets and knit gloves, I am currently in flip flops and 70 degree weather, but I still glow with holiday spirit. Before heading off to my mom’s new place in North Carolina last week for…
