Ever since my kid became a toddler, I have relied on my crock pot a lot more heavily, but sometimes finding healthy crock pot recipes is a challenge. My ideal crock pot dinner is relatively healthy and ideally something that has a veggie included in it, so it’s even less work to put together a full meal. This way, I…

I’ve been posting more regularly on the blog, but haven’t done a Friday Favorites in while! I shared a concise version on Instagram this afternoon, but thought this would be a good place to elaborate on things, share more info, and share specific links.

If 75 medium week 8 was my low point, week 9 is definitely my reception arc. I’ve had some really good workouts this week and with the weather getting nicer, I’m able to be outside more. I know my goal is to just do one workout a day but now that it is getting warmer, I definitely want to incorporate…

My family has been taking us to Isle of Palms for over 20 years. Probably more like 25 years really! And boy has it changed during that time. We’ve seen plenty of businesses come/go/rebrand, houses become huge mansions, the IOP connector built, and more, but some things in IOP stay constant. Isle of Palms is a small island just right…

Oof. 75 Medium Week 8 feels like it shouldn’t count. This has been my roughest week of the 75 Medium Challenge yet and I almost feel like I need to extend this challenge out an extra week to compensate! In case you missed week 1, week 2, week 3 , week 4, week 5, week 6, and week 7 recaps,…
