Hello Friends! I had (and still have) no food in the fridge. Well, no fresh food. I had to get creative. Don’t judge. I did, however, still have the bread and peanutbutter that I took to the farm. Breakfast was a winner…the rest of the day…. No Judgement WIAW {What. I. Ate. Wednesday.} {Breakfast}:…
Homemade Scotchie Granola Bars
Hello Friends! Did you know today is the first day of spring? It’s also my Grandma Rosalie’s birthday, which suits her well being a big gardener. Happy Birthday Grandma Rose!! It’s super rainy here…isn’t April supposed to be the rainy month? (*April Showers Bring May Flowers…But What Did the Mayflower Bring?*) It’s weird because…
It’s all about Preparation + Country Love
Hello Friends! As I mentioned in my post yesterday, I hung out with the BF and his dad at their family farm this weekend. It was a much needed escape from everyday life and stress. The farm is in the middle of Nebraska somewhere. (I’m not the one driving…I don’t pay attention.) The house isn’t…
Happy Birthday Sister + Granola Teaser
Hello Friends! How has your weekend been going? I am at the BF’s farm typing this post as we speak, looking out over cornfields. Weird right? I wanted to take a little time, while the boys are out playing on their new toy, to say Happy B-day to my lovely sister Courtney on the…
{Friday Five Foodie Finds #18}
Happy Friday Friends! Well I was going to run 6 miles this morning. Then when my alarm clock went off I convinced myself I should just run after class…and therefore right before work. We will see how that goes huh? With warm temps and little time to run a distance that I’m not sure…
Get Some Fruit in Your Life
Hello Friends! In most of my WIAWs I’ve said that I really need more fruit in my diet. I eat a banana or apple most days weeks, however I am not a big fan of berries. Something about the texture bugs me, not to mention the fact that they seem to go bad pretty quickly. …
{WIAW #20} Drooling all Day
Good Morning Friends! I hope everyone is having a great week so far! I cannot believe it’s Wednesday but I am so excited because I missed out on WIAW last week due to crazy stress and busyness. (More info on WIAW.) The food pictured was from a couple of weeks ago when I made my…
Thankful Thursday
Hello Friends! I’ve had another challenging day. I have been dealing with a case of the grumpy-everything-is-stupid-and-why-am-I-always-tired syndrome lately. I mean I didn’t even do my WIAW post this week due to my stress causing shooting pains in my stomach last night and I am super bummed! Let me tell you, SIX hours of Chemistry…
Keep Moving
Hello Friends! Running is not always easy or fun for me. Take today. It was abnormally warm today and I have been used to bundling up like crazy to run. I wore a sweatshirt that I had to awkwardly take off (after taking off my garmin watch and glasses and almost dropping my ipod five…
Crockpot Chili
Hello Friends! I am a beginner cook. I am sure most of you have realized this. I am fascinated by all of these cooking blogs that I follow because each one makes me feel like I know even less about preparing a meal. (See my Friday Five Foodie Finds for recipes I drool over weekly.) …
