It’s About Effort, Not Being Perfect

Two-Ingredient Pancakes
Today is the second day of my diet experiment, and while I’ve only been Paleo for 24 hours, I’m over it. Haha. Apparently I don’t know how to eat without bread, tortillas, chips, crackers, etc. Cutting out dairy, like milk and yogurt, was easier than I thought, but giving up grain has made me sad,…

My Favorite CHRISTMAS Things: Part 2
If you weren’t aware, it’s effing cold in Illinois today. Effing. My father and I are meeting up with Matt and his parents for lunch today (yay for my bf being in the same state again!), so that meant I had to either wake up early to run or not do it at all. I…

Pros & Cons of Using a Step Counter
After a two-year hiatus from tracking my steps, I decided to dig out my old Fitbit to wear again. Except apparently my Alta took it personally because it decided it no longer wanted to work. So! Last month I gave in and ordered a new one (Inspire HR) to motivate me to move more throughout…
My Year Spent Working Through the “Bread Baking for Beginners” Cookbook
I have approximately 500 bread pictures from the past year—it’s a little out of control. But I guess that’s what happens when you work through a whole bread cookbook taking several pictures each time you make a recipe. As many of you know, I spent 2019 making my way through Bread Baking for Beginners by…
What I’ve Learned from a Year of Working from Home
I’ve worked from home multiple days per week for several years now, but it wasn’t until we moved from San Diego to Chicago that I started working remotely full time. Since I was able to work with the same company—but from afar—I transitioned from working from home 2 to 3 times per week to the…
