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)

Friday Finds

SHN Favorites 7-26-13

July 26, 2013 by Amanda R DeWitt

I’m not gonna lie…I am quite amused at some of the answers for the Justin’s Peanut Butter Cups giveaway.  Some people are just as sneaky as I am when dealing with delicious chocolate goodies.  (Your secret is safe with me…I won’t tell your significant other you won TWO sleeves of cups.)

Hello Friends! Hey all!  How has your week been??

Hello Friends! After yesterday’s post, some positivity is needed!  I’m not gonna lie..doing all of that research on the topic got me pretty upset with humanity and I just wanted to lock my door and never leave (this hotel room?).

March 8, 2013 by Amanda R DeWitt

Hello Friends! It’s FRIDAY!  I always have mixed feelings about the weekend. In my waitressing/coffee catering days, I worked weekends, so while it was cool to not have school…I still had to get up at 4:30am a lot of Saturdays to work the farmer’s market or work Saturday nights at the wing-n-beer joint.  Now I…
