Butter Vs Margarine–What Do YOU Think?
I made some M+M blondies last night FULL of butter. I will admit it nearly stopped my heart putting in a stick and a half of the stuff, but they are an amazing treat (I will share the recipe soon!) I also use margarine for spreading on toast on occasion. As is the usual tone…
A Visit to The Chive (a dose of snark in poem form)
I’ve been thinking about a way to write about this all week, and this is what I came up with. I’m sorry if you like the Chive, I too was a fan…until I actually went to the site. This girl will no longer “chive on.” A Visit to the Chive Adapted (sort of) from…
{WIAW #72} Current Confessions
Hello Friends! I have a confession to make. Well, I have a lot of confessions I should probably make…like the fact that sometimes I make cookies solely to eat all the dough left in the bowl. That’s pretty normal though, right? I should also confess that in three days I had Starbucks three times. Once…
{Thursday Thoughts} Religiocity: Part 2
Hello Friends! Recently I’ve been wrestling with what I believe…religion-wise. My faith in God and my savior will never waiver, however some of the religious details are a little fuzzy and often up for debate. I wrote my first “Religiocity” post when I was a little more emotional about moving in with Dave because…
{Thursday Thoughts} Religiocity: Part 1
Hello Friends! I am now living with my adorable boyfriend, Dave. While I’ve already written a post about my reasons/thoughts on this, I have still been faced with opposition, in particular, from Christians. Who believe they know what’s right for us. And that we don’t. ———- Early warning: these are MY opinions and feelings. Some…

Hello Friends! I hope all of you Mothers had an amazing Mother’s Day! I was only able to text my mom this lame picture…but I will be seeing her soon and hopefully she likes the surprise I’m sending to her work! 🙂 I am still hanging out in the twin cities with Dave and we…
{MIMM #15} Birthday {Giveaway} + Chobani Freezing Tips
Hello Friends! Well, the KC trip went a little differently than I had imagined to say the least. It was fun, yes. It was also rough. I was kind of a train wreck of emotions the past five days to tell you the absolute truth. After the chaos of packing and getting the apartment cleaned…
{Thursday Thoughts} On Steubenville
Okay this topic is pretty uncomfortable to talk about, not to mention the fact that I try not to talk about controversial topics on the blog…why? Who knows. Maybe I don’t have the energy to defend my side and maybe I just want everyone to like me, or not have someone be turned off from…
{MIMM #12} Best Laid Plans + Happy Birthday Sister!
Hello Friends! Welp, the weekend sure did not go as I had planned, but I did have fun (and got to see my nephew!!). “And THIS is a CARROT!” The intent was to do my long run Saturday morning with the running group I’m a part of (but haven’t really run with). I was pretty…
