As discussed, I am trying to try new recipes each week. Tonight, I tried a skinny chicken salad. I wish I could say it was as much of a hit as the BBQ Chicken… but it’s not. Next time, I would add some honey and increase the amount of Greek yogurt and mayo. Ingredients: 2/3 …
Each year, I concoct a list of resolutions for the year ahead. Last year, I opted to throw the list away altogether and appreciate the process instead. “I might not always accomplish the goals by the end of that particular year, but I’m constantly working to make myself better, hone my skills and grow at …
Part of my New Year’s resolutions include trying a new recipe every week. If my first new recipe was any indication, this is going to be a good year. Not only it is insanely easy, but it is absolutely delicious. Like, boyfriend approved delicious. You can find the original recipe at Family Fresh Meals. Ingredients 2 …
It’s that time of year. Each year, I try and tackle this thing called adulthood a little bit more efficiently. That means trying to start early, stay organized and stay on budget. Hear that? Budget, Vanessa. (Needless to say some years have been more successful than others.) This year might just be a record. I have …

It’s officially time to get festive for fall. Armed with our salted caramel mochas in hand, we headed out to Bengston’s Pumpkin Fest to get to work. Seventy pounds of pumpkins later, our front porch is adorned with our colorful selects. Now it’s time to work on decorating the inside. I’ve repurposed my Dollar Tree …
I moved in the last few months, which has resulted in a lot of odds and ends finding themselves without a purpose. Specifically, this $15 Target bookcase (in white). While my books have found themselves new homes, I have run out of storage for my hand painted wine glasses. I decided to repurpose this little …
I’m getting ready to run my 4th half marathon. Just when I think I’m ready for the big day… I get sick. The kind of sick even coffee can’t cure. You become more susceptible to getting the flu when you’re training. So how do you know when to run or when to throw in the …
What can I say, I’m inspired. (Thank you PopSugar.) My current wish list item for fall: the perfect leather jacket. Luckily, H&M has several types of biker jackets, making it easy to find the perfect one for you. What are some of your favorite fall staples? H&M Biker Jacket, $59.99 H&M Biker Jacket, …
