    Savannah Bucket List & Why You Should Add It To Your List!

    / No Comments

    I now have a new Top 5 towns that I love, Savannah! We only spent a day and a half but it was amazing! My first major was Marine Biology but History was also a love and history was what we were immersed in this trip. We stayed at a quaint Inn and while it wasn’t the perfect stay, it was beautiful. So why should you add Savannah to your bucket list? Savannah’s Squares! There are 22 total and all are unique and tell a story. They are like small parks that stay green year round. We walked 19 of the 22 and wow we were tired! You will see…

    A Weekend In Hendersonville NC

    / No Comments

    In December we decided to do a weekend trip sans toddler to Hendersonville, NC. Hendersonville is a city just outside of Asheville. Hendersonville is a quaint little town (okay second largest in Western Carolina) and has officially made it to the list of my Top 10 towns I love! We stayed at The Charleston Inn, an adorable B&B, within walking distance of town. We were visiting The Biltmore for the candlelight Christmas tour, but wanted to be further away from Asheville. Don’t get me wrong I love Asheville with all my soul, but the change of scenery was needed. After our 3 hour drive to get to Hendersonville we stopped…

    Campfire S’mores At Home

    / 1 Comment

    I made two little boys very happy today! We had campfire s’mores at home today and they were a huge hit! Now this isn’t the typical s’mores you would think of but a modified easier to eat and a touch of healthy packed in. Since strawberries are in season this was a perfect treat for the day. Quick and tasty treat that everyone is sure to love.

    Pizza Pasta Bake

    / 1 Comment

    Who else gets bored with just pizza or just pasta? All my Italian food lovers just gasped, I am certain! What if I said you can make them better? How you ask? You marry the two! The result is perfection! This recipe is super easy and toddler, husband approved.   A perfect union of my two favorite foods! Pizza and pasta! Add some crispy bread and voila! Dinner is served and happy eaters are made.

    Summer Series: Must Do In My State! North Carolina!

    / No Comments

      I wanted to post this last week as a closer of our Summer Series, but life happens right? I have thoroughly enjoyed working with everyone so much over the summer and learning about different States and the Must Do’s! Thank you to everyone that contributed and I hope y’all have found inspiration for your next adventure! So as an end to the series I am doing North Carolina! A little more about me: I was born in Texas and lived in Florida for a short time then moved to North Carolina when I was 9 or so. While I am not a Born I am a Raised Carolina Girl…

    Toddler’s First Camping Trip!

    / No Comments

    As many of you know already we took Coop camping for the first time a few weeks ago. I would like to say it was 100% successful but I would be fibbing to you! While it was a great learning experience, I will definitely do a few things different for our next adventure. I was anxiety driven as this was the first time camping with a toddler. I wanted everything to be perfect and being the OCD individual I am thought I had it all figured out.   This post may contain affiliate links, which means if you make a purchase from my link I may make a small commission…

    Making Healthy Meals Happen for You & The Family

    / No Comments

    As a mom, it can be challenging to focus on health and fitness goals.  One of the keys to achieving these goals is to dial in our nutrition.  And a key to THAT is having healthy food ready on-hand to put in your mouth when hunger strikes.     Meal planning/meal prep makes it a lot easier to get healthy meals on the table for the whole family.  How do you do it?  Although it may seem intimidating or daunting, it’s as simple as 1,2,3.   Set a menu Keep in mind what’s realistic for how much prep time you have each day.  Some days are busier than others.

    Food, Drinks & Fun For St. Patrick’s Day

    / No Comments

    Whether you call it St. Patrick’s Day or St. Paddy’s day, one thing is certain about March 17th, it is a great day for a party. St. Patrick’s day represents a day of celebration and for adults can also include a toast or several in honor of. Anyone can be Irish for a day and you are doubly lucky if you are Truly Irish! What began as a religious feast day in the 17th century has evolved into a variety of festivals across the globe celebrating Irish culture with parades, special foods, music, dancing, and a whole lot of green. I have collected some of my favorite things to do…

I made this last night and his little belly was so full! I used my skillet again and the results were yummy! I use a deep cast-iron skillet by Lodge and it is perfect! It is pre-seasoned and ready for immediate use. I love cooking with cast-iron. It…
