My roommate and I just celebrated our 5 year anniversary (awwww!). It’s true, somehow we survived 5 years under the same roof without killing each other. For two twenty-something year old girls? That’s a cause for celebration. I know other people make Better Than Sex Cake (BTS or Better Than Anything Cake…if you prefer a […]
We were very excited and honored when Liz from Floating Kitchen nominated us for a Liebster Award! A Liebster Award is passed from one blogger to another, typically those who are “newer” bloggers, and it is a way for us to get to know each other and for our readers to get to know us. It’s […]
As part of my bridal shower, we had guests give me recipes with their cards. I’m embarrassed to say it’s been two years, and this is the first of those recipes I’ve made! Sorry everyone. We call this one “Poor Man’s Pecan Pie”. Because while pecan pie is delicious and easy, pecans can be expensive. […]

For a recap on Ireland Parts 1 & 2, check it out here and here! Naiomi and I at the Peace Wall. Day 7: After staying up until 6am the night before for New Year’s, it was a little rough waking up and hitting the road at 10am. But with a four hour drive ahead of […]
For the first time since starting this blog…Kelly and I were together! And we’d been practically counting down the days. We had a list a mile long of things to do! Such as: go running, go to hot yoga, shop, bake, maybe do a video post?, coffee date, drink wine, look at Christmas lights…it goes […]
This post is sponsored by Stirrings. I have received sample products for writing this post. All content and opinions are mine. How is it possible the year is almost over?! I swear every year goes faster than the last. With a whirlwind Christmas trip from New York to California I’m looking forward to a quiet and relaxing […]
How is it 2015?! I say this every year…but I really can’t believe how fast this one went. It was a big year for LDB! We traveled to Portland, Oregon together and attempted to eat our way through the city. We spent a beautiful weekend in Napa, California for a friends’ wedding and met our first blogging […]
Happy New Year! Along with the rest of the world, making healthy choices in the kitchen is on my 2016 Goals list. I don’t like calling them New Year’s resolutions. I’m not sure why, but goals seems like a more tangible word, something you can accomplish and cross off a list. No one is talking […]

One of my all time favorite things about summer is the abundance of fresh fruit. And my favorite thing to do with said fruit? Cobblers, of course! Now, peach cobbler is my ultimate favorite. It’s quite possibly my favorite dessert in the history of ever. But sadly it’s not always all about me, and it […]

Our friends over at Simply Living tagged us in this fun game…Then & Now! Where we look back and compare life as it used to be to how it is now. Here it goes! THEN: ~2004 (high school) NOW: ~2014 (post college) … [Read more…]
Yes, you read that title right! It’s the final day of cupcake week and for the finale we bring you Circus Animal Cookie Cupcakes. Seriously, YUM!! Circus Animal cookies remind me of childhood, almost as much as Dunk-A-Roos, Squeeze-Its, Cookie Crisp cereal, Lisa Frank, Power Rangers, Legends of the Hidden Temple and Captain Planet. Can […]
