Happy Saturday, Y’all! I hope you are enjoying summer! June was a busy month for us. On June 5th I celebrated my 29th birthday. The hubby spoiled me with a day of shopping and dinner out. Hubby surprised me with donuts for my birthday breakfast! And check out that cute plate that I found while shopping the day before. #givemealltheflamingos I made and enjoyed this delicious Double Chocolate Cake! I tried and fell in love with the Vanilla Sweet Cream Cold Brew and it was my new favorite for June! I think I lost count of how many I drank! Then on June 18th hubby and I celebrated our 5th anniversary. We started the anniversary celebration…

How is it June already?! Instead of saying that May was really busy (I’m learning that life is just really busy) I’m just going to say that May was another typical month at our house. We started out May with a 1 and 1/2 week trip to California that began with us driving up highway 1 from LA to SF in a convertible! I’m working on a blog post and a photo book about all of the fun things we did and all of the yummy things we ate. I’ll leave you with a picture of this sandwich we got while in SF. It’s a grilled cheese sandwich with macaroni and cheese…

  Did y’all know that tomorrow is national chocolate chip day?! I think we need to celebrate by eating handfuls of chocolate chips. Here are some of my favorite recipes made with chocolate chips and I’m working on another chocolate chip cookie recipe that I’ll share with you on Monday! Old Fashioned Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies This was the first recipe I posted on Sam’s Dish over 4 months ago! This is a soft and chewy cookie with just a hint of cinnamon. Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake I wasn’t a fan of cookie cakes before trying this recipe and now I can’t get enough! It’s moist and delicious with or without frosting. Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars…

I had plans to prep posts for this week before we left, but it came down to packing or blogging and I chose packing. So no new posts this week while I’m enjoying a much needed vacation with my husband!

Hey y’all! April was a whirlwind around here! The beginning of April my sisters came to visit over spring break and we had the best time! We don’t get to hang out just the 4 of us very often, so when we do it is special time for us. Our weekend included lots of shopping, some redecorating around my house and lots of eating! If you follow any of us on social media you probably saw some of the pictures we posted that weekend. I’ve been working on my spring cleaning list and don’t know what all I need to include! Have any tips, leave them below in the comments. Usually about the…

  Happy Saturday! March was an extremely busy month at our house and I’m looking forward to purposefully slowing things down in April. My sisters are on spring break this week and are coming to visit! There will be lots of shopping, cooking, eating and girl talk and I can’t wait! Do you use the Target Cartwheel app? I love shopping at Target and I love getting a good deal. With the Cartwheel app I can scan each item as I put it in my cart to see if I can get an additional discount. I got a package from one of my sisters recently and it included this adorable bunny cookie cutter set! I’m thinking some spring sugar…

Happy Saturday! Hubby’s birthday was February 24th and we celebrated with homemade pizza and cheesecake. I got him a gift subscription to Foot Cardigan, he’s going to get a new fun pair of socks in the mail each month! Speaking of subscriptions. Have you tried Birchbox? Hubby got me a subscription for Christmas and I love trying new products each month and who doesn’t love getting fun mail?! I got this eyeliner in my Birchbox back in January and I’ve been using it almost everyday! A lot of liquid eyeliners usually leave me frustrated with mix-matched eyes, but this one releases the right amount of product and the tip is firm enough that…
