It’s that time! July is right around the corner, so I’m sharing a bunch of the things that made me happy over the past month. Since we tied the knot in May, June started with our mini honeymoon and then has just consisted of us settling back into our life…but better because we’re married now….

Raspberry Almond Greek Yogurt Parfait
Layer plain Greek yogurt with granola, sliced almonds, and fresh raspberries and a drizzle of pure maple syrup for a healthy snack that satisfies your sweet tooth like it’s dessert. On some trips to the grocery store, I get specific ingredients to make a certain recipe. Other times, like on Saturday, I get what feels…
Here’s to Us
Ask anyone what “being healthy” means, and you’ll get a wide range of answers. Hitting the gym for an hour every day after work. Focusing on “eating clean.” Or maybe just not eating the entire batch of cookies (been there). We all interpret it slightly different, and as a result, we might lead very different…
How to Make Cold Brew Coffee
Cool off this summer by trying this easy-to-make cold brew coffee in a French press – you’ll wish you had tried it sooner! Happy [official] first day of summer!

Honeymooning in San Francisco
As of today, it has been two weeks since our adventure-filled honeymoon! I figured it was about time to share the details, even though this is a little bit backwards because I’m waiting on our wedding pictures to share that series of posts. Nothing like a little vacation talk to distract until then. 😉 If…
The Soundtrack to Our Wedding
Music is one of my favorite parts of…all events, really. So naturally, I had to share a post about all the awesome music we chose for our wedding day. This component was, by far, one of the best parts of our wedding. I’m so happy with all of our choices, and I want to relive…
Savory Popcorn
Give into your salty cravings with this cheesy popcorn recipe that combines four different seasonings for a flavorful spin on the simple popped snack. I’ve been on a popcorn kick lately, where I’ve been adding a little of this and that from our collection of seasonings to spice it up a bit. We always make…
Killer Core HIIT
If you didn’t see my post on the social medias, we went on our honeymoon this past weekend, and it was full of adventures, food, and touristy fun! We basically turned the holiday weekend into an extra long break from adult life and road-tripped up to San Francisco. I plan to share an inevitably long…
