Who else is excited for the upcoming holiday three day weekend? A lot of us are planning road trips so I thought that this would be a great time to share with you what I think are the road trip essentials. [T-shirt / Jeans / Leopard flats] Comfort chic outfit. Wearing comfy clothes is key and a classic t-shirt and jeans (or jean shorts) does the trick for me. Not only is that comfort at its finest moment but it’s an easy outfit to put together. Plus it’s a great casual look if you’re meeting up with people at your destination. (In …

Avocado Egg in a Bagel
It’s only Wednesday but I’ve already got “weekend breakfast” on the brain. A “weekend breakfast” is the kind of breakfast that you indulge in on a day when you don’t care about calories (because we all know that calories don’t count on weekends). Maybe your Saturday morning will involve some fluffy pancakes, or a huge stack of waffles, or even some yummy apple pie (there’s no judging here). Last weekend I decided to combine two of my favorite breakfasts into one fantabulous meal. This meal is part egg in a bread/hole (depending on what you call it), part avocado toast, and …
Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bread
I don’t like change. After about a year of careful thinking and planning I bought a new car. To be honest with you, if I could have kept my 11 year old Honda CRV with 145,000 miles on it forever then I probably would have.

Change can be a good thing, especially when it comes to buying a shiny new ride, except getting that new ride means that I had to make a big decision and I’m not good at that. I …
Stuff I’m Into: Getting Summer Ready
Memorial Day is right around the corner and that means the unofficial start of Summer is almost here. I’m getting anxious for Summer since it’s been a cool Spring. Here’s how I’m getting ready for Summer: Summer Foods. Bye, bye heavy comfort foods and hello, fresh fruits and veggies. I especially can’t wait for corn on the cob to make an appearance at the grocery store. It’s one of my favorites so I apologize in advance if I make a ton of recipes with corn in them. This corn guacamole is one of my favorite appetizers and would be a great …
Coconut Almond Smoothie
Hello Monday and hello new smoothie recipe. By show of virtual hands, are you a smoothie person? I could drink a smoothie every day and be a happy camper. (I could also eat a bagel every day and be in heaven, but I digress.) My husband is not a fan of smoothies. No biggie. Thankfully it’s super easy to whip up a smoothie for one. I tend to make the same smoothie flavor for a few weeks and then I move on to another one which becomes my new favorite. Lately I’ve been into dairy free smoothies so I came …
