Diary of a Semi-Health Nut

ramblings + recipes of a semi-healthy nut

Hi! I’m Amanda.

I’m a writer, chocolate chip cookie baker, blog designer, power walker, Instagram fiend, peanut butter toast lover and copious coffee drinker living in Nebraska with my husband and three cats. (also a fan of a good run-on sentence)

{WIAW #67} Our Very Own Fridge

June 12, 2013 by Amanda R DeWitt

Hello Friends! It’s the little things, right?  Having to share a fridge with a roommate is kind of a pain.  Since you’re not sharing money…you’re not likely to share food when you just have a roommate.  This means that you will probably have doubles of certain things…like bread, milk, eggs, salad, fruit, veggies, etc and…

{MIMM #21} Adventures in Moving

June 10, 2013 by Amanda R DeWitt

Hello Friends! So I was feeling pretty productive and patting myself on the back when I finished unpacking all of our boxes in two days AND finding a spot for almost everything.  This included all of the new gadgets we bought. We could see the floor, dishes were put away and we were even able…

June 5, 2013 by Amanda R DeWitt

Hello Friends! Today is the day!  Moving day!  So I’m going to attempt to keep this short and sweet! I lost my fancy camera’s charger for awhile (yay for moving and finding it!) so I haven’t been able to take the best pictures of food…but I did discover an entire folder of food from May,…

{Thursday Thoughts} Don’t Judge Me But..

May 16, 2013 by Amanda R DeWitt

Hello Friends! We judge others/situations every day.  It’s actually a crucial part of life! While we don’t want to be rude in our judgements, they can help us to stay safe, choose our close friends and to exercise our free will to think about people and situations the way we choose. For example…on my roadtrip…

{WIAW #63} Mall of America + NEWS!

May 15, 2013 by Amanda R DeWitt

Hello Friends! Wow where did the last week go?  I seriously feel like I JUST wrote up a WIAW (or What. I. Ate. Wednesday.) post (and painstakingly watched as the bar crept along showing the status of the photo uploads…dang hotel internet!). Since these photos from the amazing Mall of America did not want to…

May 10, 2013 by Amanda R DeWitt

 Happy Friday Friends! I failed to mention this in my half-marathon race recap post yesterday, but I made it to the great state of Minnesota!  I road-tripped it all the way up from Nebraska!  I got to stop and hang out with my blend Calee in Ames on the way up where she treated me…
