Q&A: Vol. I

Life· Q & A

Today I figured I would do a bit of a different post than normal and answer a few common questions I get in either emails, DMs on Instagram, comments, etc. I realized that I honestly don’t share too many details about my life besides bits and pieces you might get from my travel posts or my Favorite Things posts. Not…

7 Products I Use to Reduce Waste

Life

I will be the first to admit that I am not the best at being “green”. I always forget my canvas bag when I go to the grocery store, I forget to unplug electronics, and honestly I could do a better job in conserving fuel. But I KNOW reducing waste is important and so I’m always trying to find easy…

Stuffed Peppers

Food

Howdy! It’s been a while since I shared a recipe with y’all, so I’m sharing one of my favorite weeknight meals– STUFFED PEPPERS! The filling is actually pretty similar to my crockpot mexican chicken and quinoa, sans enchilada sauce– but it’s cooked in the skillet, so you can pull it all together relatively quickly. I love cooked peppers, so filling…

Enjoy, and have a very happy Friday! 1. Silk Scarves I’ve been reading a lot…

Amazon Haul: Vol. I

Amazon Hauls· Style

Alright, y’all know my love for Amazon by now. To my husband’s dismay, I buy a lot of clothes on Amazon, so I figured I might as well start sharing what I get (the good and the bad). Sunglasses I lost another pair of sunglasses so I was searching for a cute pair for cheap. I’m really happy with these!…

A Native’s Guide to a Vacay in Charlotte

Charlotte· Travel

I have lived in Charlotte since 2003 (besides moving away for 3 1/2 years for school), so I consider myself pretty much a native Charlottean (is that a thing?). Charlotte is one of the fastest growing cities in the U.S. and constantly has new breweries, activities, and restaurants opening. It really is such a beautiful town and a lot of…

24 Hours (roughly) in Charleston

Travel

OK, actually I’m pretty much on point with saying that we spent almost EXACTLY 24 hours in Charleston this past weekend. G and I both had work off for MLK day this year so we decided to get out of town! It was a last minute decision to do so, but we ended up only spending 24 hours because we…

Catch me putting @fairlife chocolate milk in every Catch me putting @fairlife chocolate milk in every recipe while pregnant 🙂‍↕️

Without toppings, this clocks in at about 7 grams fiber, 12 grams protein, and 16 grams carbs, so it was a perfect bedtime snack for me when I had gestational diabetes!

3-INGREDIENT CHIA SEED PUDDING
2 tablespoons chia seeds
1/2 cup Fairlife chocolate milk
(optional) 2 tablespoons low-carb vanilla Greek yogurt (such as Two Good)

1. Mix the chia seeds and milk together well— cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
2. Remove from fridge and stir well, taking care to break up any clumps
3. Stir in yogurt and, if desired, top with whatever toppings you want (I love fresh raspberries and chocolate chips, granola, mashed cherries, etc) #fibermax #carbconscious #highproteinlowcarb #hyperfixation #pregnancy

BABYMOON IN NYC: DAY 2 🌙🏙️ The lesson of the day: BABYMOON IN NYC: DAY 2 🌙🏙️
The lesson of the day: drink lots of water when touristing around NY or else you might nearly pass out on the subway which will give you a big fright when pregnant 🤪

Some highlights of the day:
📍Win Son Bakery: the scallion pancake BEC is *chefs kiss*
📍Feste: super cute gift store in SoHo 
📍Central Park and The Met: duh
📍& Sons Steakeasy: before 7 pm they have an “adult happy meal” deal with a burger, the tastiest shoestring fries, and a martini— I got their French dip which was SO good

BABYMOON IN NYC: DAY 1 🌙🏙️🍕 Some highlights of th BABYMOON IN NYC: DAY 1 🌙🏙️🍕

Some highlights of the day:
📍Ole & Steen: a danish bakery with a few locations; their cinnamon social pastry was really tasty and their turkey sausage, egg, and cheese on a focaccia roll was honestly so good!
📍Met Cloisters: depending on where you are staying, this may be a hike to get to, but it wasn’t nearly as crowded and overwhelming as the Met in UES and the gardens were so beautiful 
📍Casey Rubber Stamps: old-school rubber stamps with a huge catalogue to choose from— or you can order a custom stamp!!
📍Veniero’s Pastry: this cannoli was so good— wish I had tried more things because the cheesecake looked phenomenal
