Skinny Mango and Cream Smoothies
Any excuse I have to use mason jars and patterned straws provides for a really good day in my life. It’s the little things in life that make me smile. My life is not this sad. I just like bright, colorful props and crafts. ;) I go crazy (absolutely frantic) over patterned straws, and […]
Goat Cheese and Herb Baked Eggs
Happy first day of Spring guys! Are you all as excited as I am for blue skies and warmer temperatures?! We are lucky enough to live in an area where, for the most part, the sun is always shining, and the chance of rain is scarce. This is one of the many things I […]
Honey and Sriracha Glazed Chicken Thighs
Zach is a sucker for boneless, skinless chicken thighs, as am I. When they go on sale, forget about it. We stock up for decades. I feel like boneless, skinless chicken thighs are always second to chicken breast though. Personally, I think they have a ton more flavor and are wayyyyyy more delicious. I […]
Whole Wheat Raspberry Muffins

Mint Chocolate Chunk Monster Cookies

They are moist, chewy, fudgy, delicious, spectacular, fantastic, addicting, orgas…you get the picture. ;) They are simple too! Who doesn’t love simple?! The dough requires just a […]
Triple-Chocolate Stout Loaf Cake
For the past two years, baking cakes and I have not gotten along; like whole cakes, not cupcakes. Cupcakes have always worked perfectly. I think it’s because of their “itty-bittyness.” It took me almost 2 years to finally perfect baking cakes at high altitude (btw I live in Colorado, if you didn’t know already). […]
Raspberry Vanilla Almond Breakfast Quinoa
Breakfast has never looked better or healthier! Try this one out on busy weekday mornings!
Chicken and Lemon Orzo Soup
I hope everyone had a FABULOUS weekend. It was gorgeous here in Colorado. It was sunny and in the 70s. The peaks were covered in snow, and it was one of the best views of the Front Range I’ve seen in quite a while. I pretty much spent my Sunday packing some things up […]
