Friday Motivation: {Instagram} Style

Happy Friday, y’all! I am so happy it’s finally the weekend. How many of you have today through Monday off? How many of you are as excited about that as I am?? Of course, I do start student teaching on Tuesday. I’m still quite anxious about it, but thankfully, this last week of professional development, […]

WIAW: Busy Body

Hello hello! How is your week or your Wednesday going? Mine has been just crazy with all of these meetings and this new information coming at me. It’s exciting but terrifying at the same time! I guess, really, I’m just ready to get started with this student teaching business. 🙂 (The whole 4:50 wake-up call…not […]

MIMM: Staying Positive

Good morning! I hope your weekend was a good one! I have been so busy lately that it feels like last week and the weekend were one giant blur of student teaching things and babysitting. Whew. Hosted by Katie – head on over to her site to check out more marvelousness! So, if you had […]

Chocolate Brownie Bites

Egg-free brownies are one of the most difficult things to make. There’s something about the egg in the batter that gives “normal” brownies that beautiful crackly top and almost crunchy sides, while still keeping the middle soft and chewy. For as many brownie recipes as I’ve tried, I hadn’t yet been able to achieve that […]

What’s Going On

Hello, all! Happy Wednesday! (WIAW is hosted by Jenn over at Peas and Crayons!) For today’s WIAW, I wanted to share with you all a new diet change. This diet isn’t by choice, really. It doesn’t have anything to do with weight or my allergies – at least not directly. I’m beginning to transition into […]

Meat Free Monday: Quinoa Pizza Crust

Good morning, everyone! Happy Monday! From the sounds of it, this is a big week for a lot of people. I know that a lot of my friends (blogging and otherwise) are starting another teaching year today, and others are going back for another year of school or college. Good luck to everyone! Last week, […]

Would You Rather + 5K Decision

Happy Friday, everyone! First of all, thanks to those of you that gave me sunscreen recommendations. I’ll keep them in mind next summer when I’m searching for some! 🙂 I do want to share a site that my friend Jessica told me about yesterday after reading my post. It’s to the EWG (Environmental Working Group), […]

Product Reviews

Hello all! Happy Thursday! I hope your week is going well so far. For some reason, I was totally not feeling the WIAW yesterday; I actually started the post, but became bored with myself and stopped writing it. Hah. We all have those days, I suppose. Anyway, for this week’s Thursday Thoughts, I thought it […]

Week in Review #12

Hello all! It feels like I was just writing last week’s WiR, and here we are again, another Tuesday. I just can’t believe how quickly this summer has gone. I start student teaching in exactly three weeks (EEK), and pretty soon, it will be fall. I’m SO not ready to let go of summer yet. […]

Meat Free Monday: Mexican Stuffed Peppers

Good morning! I hope your Monday is off to a good start! I wanted to pop by today to share a recipe with you all that I talked a bit about last week. The reason I invented these stuffed peppers was because my mom decided to do Meat Free Mondays with me! However, she sprung […]
