Hummus Deli Lettuce Wraps

November 1, 2014 by Melissa

Can you believe it’s already November 1st? I feel like it was just the Fourth of July.. Anyways, with the holiday season coming up, I know that I am about to begin a whirlwind of baking, heavy dinners, and plenty of sweets. I am definitely way too excited about this. I love this time of year.. just the whole feel of it is indescribable. To help…

Miller’s Ale House

October 27, 2014 by Melissa

This weekend was so fun, I told Monday it could wait, but apparently it didn’t listen to me. :) Friday, Dj, Tyler, and I went to the Navy Air Show at the Naval base down here. Dj and Tyler work there, so we were able to go during the day on Friday for a “family & friends” day, which was great because there weren’t that many…

Getting Active

October 25, 2014 by Melissa

Since graduating from college this past December and moving to Florida, I’ve been unpleasantly surprised by the sudden change of inactivity in my life. West Virginia University has a gorgeous campus. You could (and would) walk anywhere and everywhere in that town. It was also extremely hilly, so without realizing it, you were working different muscles. Now, I need to drive to work, sit at a…

I Say We Campaign For More Time in a Day…

June 24, 2014 by Melissa

Hi, all! So, a little something about me if you’re a recent follower; I work as a Marketing Consultant for a small start-up company in Jacksonville, Florida. Because the company is less than 5 years old, we put in countless hours during the week, as well as switch off working during the weekends. Feeling so overwhelmed with work is not really a new feeling, being that…

Banana Oatmeal Muffins!

June 17, 2014 by Melissa

This is going to be a short, but oh so very sweet, post! This recipe is one I’ve had in my “vault” (aka a folder on my laptop) for awhile but it is so good, I cannot believe I’ve been keeping it to myself! Typically, when people say “muffins” I picture those amazing blueberry strudel muffins from Starbucks, or the amazing pumpkin spice chocolate chip ones…

The Perfect Coffee 80 Calorie Treat

June 15, 2014 by Melissa

Happy weekend! And a very Happy Father’s Day to all the great dads out there. :) I’ve been a big fan of Taralynn for over a year now. She’s full of positive energy and finds ways to treat yourself in healthy ways! I highly recommend checking out her blog if you haven’t yet! You won’t be disappointed. This Starbucks order originated from her, but I have…

Weekend Update/ Typical Breakfast!

May 18, 2014 by Melissa

Happy weekend! Dj’s the cutest! While away in working in California this past week, he had my favorite flowers sent to me. :) So grateful for such a caring, sweet guy in my life! I was nervous that these 10 days that he is gone would be spent bored and making myself crazy. I know a lot of people cherish being alone, but I hate it.…

Vanilla, Fresh Pineapple, Honey Yogurt Bowls

May 15, 2014 by Melissa

Last night one of Dj and my friends asked me if I wanted to join him for dinner at Crazy Sushi (my favorite sushi restaurant in Jacksonville). I couldn’t even think of declining! They have this amazing deal where if your final total comes up to $30 or more, if you check in with the app FourSquare, you’ll automatically get $6 off your bill! Dj and…
