Favorite Things· Life

Happy Fri-YAY to normal society! I work Saturday this week, so today is more like a Thursday for me haha! Any other nurses out there that feel me? #thestruggle Lately, we are trying to work hard to save money where we can, so one of the cheap meals I made was stupidly easy, but it is literally one of G’s…

Last Minute Gift Guide: Mother’s Day Edition

Gift Guide

Signal the alarm because Mother’s Day is less than two weeks away! I’m generally the person who forgets until the week of a holiday and by that point, it’s too late to order an edible arrangement or some other kind of generic delivery gift. For that reason, I have compiled a list of gifts your mom will love that are…

Favorite Things: Vol. VII

Favorite Things· Life

Happy Friday, friends! I just got home from Charleston yesterday night, and am heading out today to Virginia. Literally not spending a single weekend at home this month! I’m co-hosting a lingerie shower for one of my best friends this weekend, so I’ll share some of the details from that in a week or so. I’m so excited! When I…

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…

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…

Let’s cook some raspberries up and make some raspb Let’s cook some raspberries up and make some raspberry-fudge pudding popsicles with a secret healthy ingredient 🤫🥑

RASPBERRY FUDGE POPSICLES 🥑🍫
Raspberry Part:
-~6 oz of fresh/frozen raspberries
-2 tbsp of sugar (I used coconut sugar)
•add raspberries and sugar to a saucepan over medium heat. Cook and let boil for about 5-7 minutes, stirring often to get a jammy consistency

Chocolate Part
1 avocado
1/2 cup milk
2-3 tbsp cocoa powder (depending on how chocolatey you want it!)
Splash of vanilla
Pinch of salt
Maple syrup to taste
•add all to a blender and blend until smooth

•layer chocolate and raspberry portions in a popsicle mold. You can use a toothpick or wooden skewer to swirl the layer a bit before adding sticks and freezing for at least 6 hours
•you may need to run warm water outside of your molds to help remove the popsicles when you’re ready to enjoy ❤️

This makes 6 popsicles with the molds I have but it may vary depending on the size you are using. You also may have leftover raspberry sauce!! It’s really good on Greek yogurt for a parfait or on ice cream 😉 #healthydessert #kidrecipes #toddlermom #easyrecipe
Should I fear a squirrel retaliation? 🐿️🫣 I shared Should I fear a squirrel retaliation? 🐿️🫣
I shared the picture of all of the peanuts in my car on my stories and it gave so many people a laugh, so I figured I would share the quick story time about getting my oil changed 🙃 #storytime
I scored this free water feature on Facebook marke I scored this free water feature on Facebook marketplace with hopes to make a mini wildlife pond in my garden to attract frogs, toads, and any other creatures in our yard! 🐸🐦‍⬛🦌
After I dug a big hole (no easy feat in this heat and with all this NC red clay), I buried the water feature so that it was level with the ground. I added some water plants native to my area: blue eyed grass and pickerel weed and also added some rocks so that animals could get in and out if needed. Once I filled it with water, I also added a solar fountain and mosquito dunks to keep those suckers away 🙃

To my toddler’s excitement, within a day, we already had frog visitors! Now I just need to decide what to plant around it 🤔🌼🪻 #garden #toddlermom #backyardwildlife
some nights I put my toddler to bed and I’m like “ some nights I put my toddler to bed and I’m like “yeah tonight’s all about me”— this was one of those nights!

Thanks so much to @sassysaints for gifting me with their gel nail wraps! This color is Sugar Glaze and you can use code SARAANN10 to save some $$$!

A couple years ago, my toddler and I decorated this tree home for our pal: Mr. Toad. This spring, Mr. Toad needed some roof repairs and some clean up around his little tree hole, so I took a slightly different approach with aquarium glue (recommended by many of you!) and hoping it holds up better this year!!
