Me again! Sending you some Easter cheer in the form of pudding cups. Did anyone else eat the good old worm cups with “dirt” growing up? I think I remember having a couple when I was younger and thinking it was the coolest thing to be eating something that looked like it came from the […]

If you know me, you know I look forward to the Super Bowl for one reason and one reason only: the food. I still don’t really know how football works and I’ll never understand why games are so long, so seriously, if you find me at a Super Bowl party, know I’m only there for […]

Yesterday I turned 30. Yes… 3-0!! The age that used to sound so old to me. I am now that old woman – ha! Jokes aside, there’s a reason the saying, “thirty, flirty and thriving” exists. While the flirty part doesn’t necessarily apply to me in the season of life, or ever because I’m so […]
