I actually had to search my blog to make sure that I hadn’t already posted this recipe, as I’ve been making it for years, and it’s truly one of the best damn things I make. As soon as I realized that it wasn’t on here, I got to work with typing it up. (Literally, in […]

Hey hello hi!! It’s been a good few years, but I’m so excited to be back to personal blogging! I’ve felt like I haven’t had the time or energy for much personal writing over the past couple of years, but I’m finally feeling like I’m emerging from a postpartum/pandemic/life fog with some renewed creativity and […]

This is inspired by a random recipe that I pinned on Pinterest ages ago. I bought portobello mushrooms over the weekend to add to fajitas and forgot about them, so I decided to finally try this recipe to use them up! When I pinned the recipe, I kind of assumed that it would be a […]

I am very lucky in that I didn’t even become aware of my weight until somewhere around college. Meaning that my body just so happened to fit societal standards during my childhood and adolescence; I was naturally tall and thin.

Adapted from Ina Garten’s recipe For some reason, I feel like people think of risotto as being this difficult dish that they’d never attempt at home—and honestly, I kind of get it.

My mom always taught me good skincare habits, but I kept things pretty simple: washing with a gentle cleanser, using a moisturizer with SPF, and […]

I have this tendency to doctor up/butcher recipes on the first try. A lot of times, this turns out poorly, especially when I’m baking (which is why I rarely bake other than easy/simple pancake, muffin, and banana/pumpkin bread recipes). Sometimes, it turns out perfectly, which was the case with this Moroccan chicken. I was originally […]

So. After many of you seemed to enjoy my blog post on (essentially) how to suck at decluttering, I thought I’d follow it up with a another potentially useless-to-you-but-hopefully-entertaining post on how to semi, kind of, half-heartedly diet. Ha. In all seriousness, I’ve been feeling like it’s time for me to move my health up […]

While I detest eating the same thing  over and over again, at any given time I’m typically rotating through ten or so meals for dinner (and three or so each for breakfast and lunch). I love trying new recipes and getting ambitious in the kitchen, but most of the time I’m just trying to get […]
