As Kelly mentioned before, we ate so many great meals in Portland we just knew we’d have to recreate some at home! We went to a cute little Swedish place called Broder for Easter brunch and it had the most delicious bread! Not that my meal wasn’t great…I was just a little disappointed with the small pieces […]
I need chocolate. Badly. And by need I mean I’ve been scrounging through cupboards, looking for lost gems hidden away for days just like today. Sadly…none to be found. I finished off some spice cake, straight from the pan with a fork, while I thought through my options. The easy quick fixes, like no bakes […]
So, have you seen the milkshake food truck driving around in your area recently? Exactly, there isn’t one (well maybe there is but I haven’t seen it!) and that’s what I want to drive one day. Seriously, I’d love to own a milkshake truck because I LOVE milkshakes! I consider myself a milkshake connoisseur and […]
If Kelly has a Nutella addiction, I have a peanut butter addiction: on my toast at breakfast, with an apple at lunch, by the spoonful for a snack, on my ice cream at night…it’s a daily necessity. I recently found this honey peanut butter from a local peanut shop. AMAZING. Seriously. I tried eating normal […]
It’s obvious we have an ice cream obsession around here, but sometimes you want to beat the summer heat and not feel guilty about indulging. Or maybe you’re doing the Whole30 like us and can’t have sugar. Or maybe you just want a healthy summer treat for the kiddos. Whatever your reasoning, these popsicles are […]
Once upon a time I made Angel Food Cake. And it was delectable and not nearly as difficult as I imagined. So I decided to make them in cupcake form. Because anything miniature is infinitely cuter. Within one week at work we had a retirement party for two of our radiology nurses (a combined 84 years […]
Originally I had a road trip planned this spring to travel from Boise to Phoenix for a friend’s wedding, stopping at places like Las Vegas, the Grand Canyon and Sedona along the way. Well…then my boyfriend (at the time) got a new job, we got engaged, and instead of a road trip to Phoenix I […]
To be honest, I’m not sure when or why I decided to make this ice cream. But it’s been one of the best decisions of my life. Seriously…it’s that good. Kelly made a basic vanilla ice cream Philadelphia style, which means no tempering of eggs, and it has been the perfect base for pretty much […]
Our hearts and prayers are with Dallas this week. Another attack in France yesterday. This video, after the attack in France last year, seems very relevant today and melts our hearts. Still reeling from their own tragedy, Dallas stands in solidarity with Nice, France. Catastrophe renewed for 2 more seasons! One of the funniest (and […]
I consider it a win that I did not eat Halloween candy for breakfast today. Unfortunately, I’m sure my continual snacking on it throughout the day is just as worse. Those mini kit-kats are just so addicting!! Tomorrow I will try to be better… You see, I suffer from Severe Sweet Tooth and Zero Will Power Syndrome. Sufferers […]
Guys, I met Brekin Meyer last night. Like actually met him as in shook his hand and talked to him. I didn’t think I would be so excited but after my friend almost ran him over in the parking garage of the movie theater, I was so excited that it was actually him. And that’s […]
Harry Potter and pumpkins…could there be any two things I love more?! Well besides dogs. And Christmas. And the ocean. And wine. Ok so maybe I love a lot of things. But I really love Harry Potter (as evidenced by my bachelorette party). I also really love pumpkins, which is why I signed up to be […]
Halloween is in one week. One week! How the heck are we already at Halloween?!? Although I no longer dress up, nothing will top 6th grade when my best friend Lauren and I were a bunch of grapes and blew up purple balloons and pinned them to our clothes, I do appreciate that during the […]
I know what you’re thinking, “Didn’t Kelly just make oatmeal cookies?” You’re right, I did, (check it out here) but as I was making these cookies last night, which were originally going to be pumpkin snickerdoodles, I had the sudden urge to add oatmeal. I have no idea why, I just felt compelled to add oatmeal. […]
