Favorite Things: Vol. VI

Favorite Things· Life

I had a realization last week: I’m not spending a single weekend at home this month! Haha That could explain why I haven’t posted in quite a while! At the beginning of the month, I went to Nashville with some friends from college. Last weekend, G and I went to Asheville for our 1 year anniversary (HOW!!!??). Plus we have…

Banana Bread

Food

In my humble opinion, banana bread is really underappreciated. How many dishes do we make that require an ingredient that is past its prime? Banana bread is one of the few recipes I know that say, “No! Don’t throw out that ingredient! It may be ‘bad’ in everyone else’s eyes, but to me, it is perfect” <3 Like if you…

Lately In My Amazon Cart

Amazon Hauls· Life· Style

Anyone else take advantage of their Amazon Prime Membership possibly too much? If there’s two places where I can blow my whole paycheck without thinking, it’s Target and Amazon. Unfortunately, there is not a Target super close to my apartment anymore (I mean it’s like 25 minutes, so I just don’t go to kill time or for whatever now), so…

Wedding Registries: What You Need vs What You Will Return

Life

G and I are about to hit our ONE YEAR WEDDING ANNIVERSARY. Guys, I’m getting kind of emotional thinking about that. This year has absolutely flown by. And to be 100% honest, it’s been nothing but a blast. Since we got married 4 months after I graduated college, and a year after Garrett graduated, we really weren’t starting out with…

Favorite Things: Vol. V

Favorite Things· Life· Style

What. A. Week. Kind of more like two weeks, but ya know. Been taking classes and studying like mad to get my CCRN (Critical Care Registered Nurse), which is basically just a few extra fancy letters to add to the end of my name. That, plus working a lot of back-to-back shifts has my body feeling a little out of…

Sort-Of Staycation: Weekend in Uptown Charlotte

Charlotte· Life

For Christmas this year, my parents bought G and I season passes to the local performing arts theater here in Charlotte. It’s awesome because it allows us to see five different musicals that come to Charlotte throughout the year. We saw Les Miserables (amazing!) in December and Phantom of the Opera was this past weekend. Because this gift was no…

This was one of my first times refinishing a piece of furniture and so I know my methods aren’t perfect, but I am so proud of how it turned out, and my husband loves his new desk! #furnitureflip #midcenturymodern #officedecor

I think it opens up good talk about helping others in our community which is always a conversation worth having with our kids ❤️
I also threw in some fiber capsules, some other teas (cold/flu season!!), and some hot cocoa and marshmallows 🎅 #blessingbox #foodpantry

Honest trial of the @kristinesshair gloss in the s Honest trial of the @kristinesshair gloss in the shade Bittersweet! I actually filmed this at the beginning of October and now I can say it has faded really nicely. This hair gloss gave my hair so much shine and toned it just a bit darker and cooler. I love the results! #hairgloss #athomebeauty #diyhair

Note: I did end up donating the formula elsewhere— I didn’t want to leave it outside because extreme temperatures can mess with the integrity of formula!

I took my toddler to the grocery store so we could pick out some shelf stable foods that are also good sources of protein. We made a couple of shelf stable birthday cake kits (everything included to make a cake!) and also donated a bunch of diapers that we no longer had use for! 
I really want to start doing this more often, because it caused my son to ask a lot of good questions and we were able to have a good talk about helping others ❤️
