ga(‘create’, ‘UA-67192210-1’, ‘auto’); ga(‘send’, ‘pageview’); This dish was a total accident. I originally was going to make salad, but the longer my day was the more I craved a burrito. The problem with burritos in our house is we love choices. I try to only buy the 100 calories tortillas, but how much can you […]
Ricotta Meatballs
ga(‘create’, ‘UA-67192210-1’, ‘auto’); ga(‘send’, ‘pageview’); Meatballs are a classic dish in Italian homes. My mom always made the best homemade meatballs when I was growing up. The whole house would smell like garlic and sausage. Ricotta and I have a love hate relationship. I hate the texture, but when it is mixed into meats and […]
Searching For That Idiot Proof Chocolate Chip Cookie
ga(‘create’, ‘UA-67192210-1’, ‘auto’); ga(‘send’, ‘pageview’); What is “idiot proof” ? I myself could be considered a chocolate chip cookie “idiot”. For something we make so often how are there so many variations of the same cookie? It seems like every time I find my perfect recipe- I move. This doesn’t sound like a big […]
20 Minute Tuesday
ga(‘create’, ‘UA-67192210-1’, ‘auto’); ga(‘send’, ‘pageview’); What do you do when you are starving, but really just do not feel like putting the effort into cooking?

Sweat Proof Makeup- How I Get My Makeup To Last Outside
ga(‘create’, ‘UA-67192210-1’, ‘auto’); ga(‘send’, ‘pageview’); Wearing a full face of makeup in the Georgia heat is tricky. I filmed a tutorial so you can see step by step what I did before spending the day in the sun. This is not a “by the pool” look. This is a full makeup look for those days […]
Lazy Sundays
ga(‘create’, ‘UA-67192210-1’, ‘auto’); ga(‘send’, ‘pageview’); Normally, I am stuck at work on Sunday mornings. This weekend we went to the Atlanta BBQ festival and I decided to take a long weekend.

ga(‘create’, ‘UA-67192210-1’, ‘auto’); ga(‘send’, ‘pageview’); I like to do my makeup very natural for work. I usually focus on my eyes.

Buttermilk Pancakes
ga(‘create’, ‘UA-67192210-1’, ‘auto’); ga(‘send’, ‘pageview’); There is a tiny diner in North Carolina that has completely stolen my heart. The restaurant is so small and hidden that word of mouth is genuinely their best advertising. The first time I tried their pancakes I literally teared up. I have never had a pancake so […]
Chocolate Marscapone Frosting
ga(‘create’, ‘UA-67192210-1’, ‘auto’); ga(‘send’, ‘pageview’); My favorite part of tiramisu is the creamy Marscapone custard. I wanted to make a light chocolatey frosting for a chocolate cake. I considered cream cheese, but that felt too heavy. I didn’t want a traditional buttercream because that seemed too sugary. Marscapone just seemed like the right fit. Rich […]
