Guys. I’m a little insane. Totally recognize it. It all started with RAGNAR. First I did the Wasatch Back. Then it was Vegas. Then it was a 10 mile run, followed by a half marathon, and then another half marathon. By this point, people were calling me a “runner.” HUH? Everyone kept asking me, “When […]
This shirt is a horcrux + Expressions Vinyl giveaway!!
Have I mentioned how much I love Expressions Vinyl? That, plus my new Cricut Explore make me feel like I can literally make ANYTHING I want – no problems! Did you know that I’m a huge Harry Potter fan? It’s awesome and so true. We don’t joke about Harry Potter around here – this is […]
Totes Magotes DIY tee shirt
Expressions Vinyl has ALWAYS been my GO TO for all things vinyl. Their selection? UNREAL. I love vinyl! OBVIOUSLY the glitter iron on vinyl is my ABSOLUTE favorite. But then they have glow in the dark, chalkboard, dry erase, and regular old vinyl. Plus, it’s so reasonably priced, I don’t feel bad piling it in […]
Coconut Cupcakes
Coconut cupcakes are REALLY not my thing. Let’s be honest here. I don’t love the stringy texture and I’m not a huge fan of the flavor. That being said, THESE cupcakes are pretty radical. And I’ll eat them – no questions asked.
Crunchified Spicy Sliders & World Market Summer Getaway
Did you know JUNE is BURGER MONTH?! (Thank you Bobby Flay!) I’m ALWAYS up for a good BBQ and Grilling session – especially during the summer. And of COURSE you need fries and soda. That’s just a give. This burger just might take the cake.
Ode to baby moccs – A Freshly Picked Giveaway
When I first had T… I HAD to have a pair of the Freshly Picked baby moccs. It took me MONTHS to get up the courage and take the plunge. After I’d FINALLY decided “YES” I should buy them, it took me many more months to decide which color to get. I mean, since I […]
Alex Boye’s “ROAR” and a free printable
So this one time, I fell in love with the Katy Perry song “Roar.” There’s something about it that makes me feel SO strong, empowered, and amazing. This song spoke to me, because there have been several times in my life that I’ve been told “NO, you’re not good enough” and I’ve been made to […]
Ramen Alfredo Bake
Handsome and I LOVE to the Pizza Factory – they have this dish that is so unique that whenever we go there, we HAVE to get this dish. It’s called Pasta Primavera Pie. Oh my. I’m salivating just thinking about it. The dish has noodles that are still a bit crunchy, loaded with veggies, chicken, […]
Tips to live by: Wizarding World of Harry Potter Tips
Last time we were in Florida, this was the ONLY thing I wanted to do (besides run the Tower of Terror 10 miler, of course!) was visit the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. Unfortunately, it just wasn’t possible. We brought T last time and we filled our days with NON-STOP Disney World adventures. It was […]
Velvety Smooth Biscuits and Gravy
This was a food I had always convinced myself I did not like. What am I, 5 years old? Goodness. Then, I was introduced to Bear Paw. For you Utah peeps, it’s down in St George and it’s pretty awesome. It was there that I fell in love with Biscuits and gravy. Since then, we’ve […]
Velvety Smooth Eggs Benedict Biscuit
Eggs Benedict is a new thing for us. I would always see it in restaurants and think, “Oh I wish I could make a hollandaise sauce – but it’s too hard.” Well, Handsome and I watched “Worst Cooks in America” and THEY cooked up Eggs Benedict – Hollandaise sauce and all. If THEY could make […]
Velvety Smooth Scones
Remember earlier this weeks when I threw down the BEST (no exaggerations here) biscuit recipe known to man? (If you missed it, check it out HERE. Get ready to have your mind blown and life changed.) Well today, we’re getting jazzy with it. Instead of baking these babies, let’s throw them in a little bit […]
Velvety Smooth Biscuits
I am a huge fan of biscuits, but it wasn’t until I got married that I realized there was a SPECIAL recipe that I was accustomed to: velvety smooth biscuits. You think I’m joking? I don’t joke about my food.
Raspberry Cream Pie (PLUS a huge food blogger fail)
Long story: So for PI day, I was looking around for an AMAZING raspberry cream pie. I mean, I SUPPOSE I could have made a quick crust and thrown some canned raspberries in, but I honestly couldn’t bring myself to do it. I have a reputation to uphold. Joking, but a little serious also. So […]
Tips to Run a Disney World Half Marathon
Remember that one time I did a half marathon in Disneyland? (If you don’t, you should check it out HERE.) Well, apparently there’s a sister race – YES. A Disney World Half Marathon. The princess marathon. In Florida. Through Disney World. Are you tired of me talking like that yet?
Radiant Orchid Blog hop – Coconut Cheesecake Cake
Pantone’s color of the year is Radiant Orchid, so what better way to celebrate APRIL and SPRING than a Radiant Orchid blog hop??
Easter Entertaining plus #HopitForward Sweepstakes
Disclosure: This Easter blog post is sponsored by World Market. All opinions are 100% mine. I literally almost fell out of my seat when I realized that Easter is NEXT week. Good thing I have ALL of my Easter entertaining ready to go – thanks a BILLION to World Market – they totally saved me! […]
Hangin’ with my Peeps Printable
Easter is just around the corner … actually I lie – why the F is Easter at so late in the month this year? Anyway, Easter means too many delicious candies are out and for the taking. My personal favorite is the Reeses egg. YUM. But for some reason people LOVE Peeps. Can anyone explain […]
Vanilla Bean Crème brûlée
Have I ever mentioned that I’m a dessert snob? If the term “vanilla bean” is in the dessert title, 99% of the time it’s a keeper. THUS, my Vanilla Bean Crème brûlée. Literally, one of my favorite desserts of all time.
Imitation Los Hermanos Salsa Recipe
We are suckers for salsa around here. One of our favorite place to go is Los Hermanos. They have the BEST chicken taquitos (or flautas – whatever you want to call them!) and their salsa is DIVINE. The perfect consistency with just the right amount of spice. The problem? I couldn’t find a salsa recipe […]
