Crispy Prosciutto + Lemony Asparagus Empowered Pasta
What a stupendous weekend! My parents came to visit Saturday and I put them to work cleaning up the yard at my flip house!!! More on that later. Honestly, having 70 degree days in November makes yard work positively dreamy. It was delicious to be outside and active. We also went for a walk around Green Lake and had dinner together. I wish they could … Continue reading Crispy Prosciutto + Lemony Asparagus Empowered Pasta

A Week in Outfits
I know these aren’t good photos, but I kind of enjoy documenting what I’m wearing and don’t overly care about good lighting or feel a need to take the time to edit them. I love exploring my personal style and a quick snapshot to look back on over time is all I need. It’s fun to see how my closet and confidence have evolved. I’ve … Continue reading A Week in Outfits

Wood Framed Mirror DIY
I’ve wanted to make a wood framed mirror for years after seeing different versions of them on Pinterest. The obsession was born from the image below. It is my dream to create something closer to it, but wood like this doesn’t just fall into your lap. Since we happened to have an unframed mirror begging for attention, I decided the time was ripe for a … Continue reading Wood Framed Mirror DIY

Sunday View + A Simple Lunch
It’s about quarter to one and it’s been a delightfully simple, beautiful fall Sunday with no real duties, just the joy and freedom to follow whatever speaks to me. I slept in and then joined a friend for a hot chocolatey walk through downtown. When I got home, I found my self called to stay outside longer so I grabbed Brady and we soaked up … Continue reading Sunday View + A Simple Lunch

Purple Velvet Hangover
Took advantage of an almost 80 degree day in October and managed to look cute despite being hungover. My boyfriend and best friend took advantage of my lack of self control while watching the debate, forcing wine and bourbon on me to the point I could no longer concentrate on what was going on and just became a happy, cozy blob on the couch. This … Continue reading Purple Velvet Hangover

The Great French Fry Fisticuff of 2020
Let Sunday, October 18, 2020 be known forevermore hereafter as The Great French Fry Fisticuff of 2020. After a conversation the previous week in which we all shared our appreciation, nay, our devotion to French fries, a challenge was issued…who makes the best fries? And, so, we took it upon ourselves, for science and mankind, to get down and dirty with some spuds. Of course, … Continue reading The Great French Fry Fisticuff of 2020

Rosemary Mozzarella Stuffed Soft Pretzels
Rosemary Mozzarella Stuffed Soft Pretzels. If that doesn’t get your mouth watering you might not be human. Maybe this makes me basic, but anything stuffed with cheese immediately has my attention. I also love rosemary. I came across this recipe on Pinterest recently and knew I needed to make them. Warm cheesy bread is comfort food at its finest. 10/10 would recommend. My only alteration … Continue reading Rosemary Mozzarella Stuffed Soft Pretzels

What I Wore
We might still be cleaning up and figuring out where everything goes, but our house is looking mega sharp. This ongoing renovation project is easily the coolest thing I can put my name to. I’m so glad I finally get to live in it, dirt and all. It’s been a while since I’ve taken any outfit photos due to my Instagram … Continue reading What I Wore

The Argument for Not Saving Things for Special Occasions
I have been guilty of holding onto things, particularly certain items of clothing, meant for “special occasions.” Pieces that are beautiful and that I don’t want to ruin, but that I love to wear when “given the chance.” Well, the fact of the matter is, I can’t take them with me. My closet has reached a point of being pretty well curated. And while my … Continue reading The Argument for Not Saving Things for Special Occasions

Life is so good. And this is so easy to make. Whip up a batch of ice cream for yourself this weekend and thank me later. As … Continue reading No Churn Peanut Butter Brownie Ice Cream
