September 29, 2016 by Melissa
Knotty Pine Lodge in Fraziers Bottom West Virginia

It's happening!! I'm officially in the prime age where my Facebook timeline is flooded with engagement love, wedding bliss, and even a few sprinkles of babies! I absolutely adore it. Weddings, babies, sparkly rings... they're all completely my thing. This past weekend, one of my best friends from college, Danielle, got MARRIED (!!!) to her best friend, Max. The ceremony was held at the Knotty Pine…

What I’m Listening to on Audible; vol. 1

What I'm Listening to on Audible || sharing my thoughts and insights on the audio book, You are a Badass by Jen Sincero

Has anyone else here hopped aboard the audio book train? I really love to read, although, with the hustle and bustle of life, it's typically the first priority of mine to go out of the window. I downloaded Audible on a whim one day after one of my friends raved about listening to a book on her commute to work and my life is forever changed.…

Coconut Walnut Cherry Crunch Smoothie Bowl

Coconut Walnut Cherry Crunch Smoothie Bowl || These smoothie bowls are the perfect vegan breakfast, snack, or even meal option! It's light, easy to make, and customizable to what you're wanting to fuel your body with that moment! My family LOVES them!

I have a very love/hate relationship with smoothies (except for these skinny very berry smoothies, because they are super tasty). Or rather, cold foods in general. I tend to go through fazes where I'm really about them, or really against them. There is not in between, but this month, I've been on a total smoothie kick. They're really just looking at me taunting me with a…

Chocolate Covered Cherry + Banana Smoothie Bowls | These vegan, easy to make smoothie bowls are packed with healthy nutrients, fats, and keep you fueled with natural proteins & ingredients

I've been a tad obsessed with smoothie bowls lately. If you've never had a smoothie bowl before, they're exactly what they sound like! I always use frozen bananas as my base, add in any other frozen fruits I'm feeling, then get crazy with some toppings. :) The other day, Dj and I got home pretty late, so I didn't want to eat anything too heavy for…

What's Currently on my Nighstand || Are you looking for a new book recommendation? I've got you covered! In my latest nightstand series, I'm sharing the 3 books that I'm either currently reading, or have queued up for later! Check it out. :)

  It's been a hot minute since we last talked about what books are currently taking up space on my nightstand! I've always loved to read books in their true paper form (I have yet to convert to a kindle- does anyone here use them? Let me know your thoughts in the comments!), but lately, I've also been really into audio books. I'm planning on doing a…
