This post was sponsored by Starbucks in conjunction with Yummly. I have a confession. I love Starbucks iced coffee drinks. Not that this is particularly a bad thing. I mean, they are pretty darn delicious. However, with a new baby in tow, it’s not so easy to just hop around the corner every time I […]
Yay for my favorite holiday! It’s the 4th of July and I’m seriously craving ice cream. Not in an “oh let’s celebrate this holiday and have a little bit of ice cream” either. Craving it like I think about and want demand ice cream every day and sometimes 2 or [gasp] 3 times. Hey, I’m […]
Today celebrates one of my favorite desserts. It is National Strawberry Shortcake Day y’all, and with the help of Driscoll’s Berries, have I got a doozy of recipe for you! Back in my hometown in Indiana, there was a Strawberry Shortcake Festival every spring (friends & family, you can let me know if you are […]

And now for a love story… When M and I first started dating, I lived in a small one bedroom apartment on a busy corner in a trendy hipster neighborhood in San Diego. I had a cute little patio and people were always walking by heading to the local bar, restaurant, book store, or just […]
Like many bloggers, I have been super annoyed with Facebook lately. As you may have heard, they changed their algorithm transforming the system into a “pay to play” network. This means whenever you like a page you won’t necessarily see all of that page’s posts show up in your news feed. I don’t know about […]
The Holidays are over right? The decorations are packed away, the Christmas songs have stopped blaring in stores and there’s no more snow on the ground… well, maybe we still have to work on that last one. There is a storm front blowing across the U.S. right now and many of you are hunkered down […]
