There was a time in my life, I’d say maybe the last 3-4 years where I wasn’t a chocolate fan. Shocking to any of my friends and family who knew me growing up as I would be the one to order every chocolate-filled dessert at any restaurant we went to and loved brownies, fondue and s’mores. Oh and my mom’s homemade chocolate cake. Sign me up! Anything that involved chocolate - I wanted. But as I ...
Quick and Easy 15 Minute Grain-Free Pesto Pizza
It might be a new year but I’m still the same old me… I love making the most convenient meals, love pizza and want to consume it pretty much every week.

Whether it’s a thick crust ...

A classic day over here lately. My hope is to go for a walk since it's super nice today and I'm pretty sure I haven't seen or felt fresh air in 48 ...
The Tastiest Tropical Green Smoothie of My Dreams
Happy Wednesday and new month, bbs. I’m really hoping this month nothing crazy pops up and we can just stick to self quarantined naps and short walks. It’s been quite a year thus far I must say. January I was hospitalized, February I had the flu (no, not corona!) and March we got hit with a global pandemic. But if we’ve gotten this far, I think we can make it through April and beyond. We’re also ...
