Weekend in the Woods & Chicken Butternut Squash Soup
November 11, 2013 by MelissaThis week was hectic but oh so much fun! My friends and I are all about to graduate from WVU next month (cue tears), so we decided to rent a cabin at Deep Creek Lake in Maryland and have a weekend in the woods!

Skinny “Chinese” Food- Honey Red Pepper Chicken!

I think it has to do with hanging out, watching football, and having a lazy day. Pizza, fried foods, and wings just compliment that so well! Chinese food has always been…
When it comes to sleeping, I’m a huge fan. Especially now that the weather has turned so cold, it becomes harder to convince myself to leave my bed earlier than I absolutely have to… However, staying in my heaven bed has its downfalls. I hate skipping breakfast because when I’m sitting in class and the hunger begins to kick in, I’m more inclined to just grab…
