Sweeten up dinnertime by flavoring salmon with this easy-to-make brown sugar and chili powder rub. I feel the need to preface this post with the disclaimer that this recipe does not photograph very well, but it was too good not to share. Fish is not exactly my favorite, which is a shame since I have…

September Favorites
Can you believe that October starts on Saturday? I can almost taste the holiday season! Can. Not. Wait. I’m dropping in today to share a bunch of my favorites from the somewhat exciting month of September. Why was it exciting? I went on some new fitness adventures, ventured to Vegas, recognized my 4-year blogging anniversary…
Cheesy Ham and Egg Cups
Bake a batch of cheesy eggs in ham cups for a quick and delicious breakfast you can easily grab on-the-go! Despite my love for elaborate breakfast dishes, I’m all about the easy recipes that don’t sacrifice any flavor. I’ve been wanting to try this whole eggs-in-ham-cups thing for awhile, so yesterday—while I was in the…
Chocolate Pumpkin Protein Bites
Stay energized over the fall season by snacking on this recipe for pumpkin protein balls—chocolate chips included! Fall has arrived! Leaves are starting to change; the weather is [supposed to be] getting cooler; boots are becoming a wardrobe staple. Although yesterday was technically the first day of the autumn season, I know some people have…
Oatmeal Waffles
Combine the classic breakfast dishes of fluffy waffles and hearty oatmeal for one, oat-filled waffle recipe. Although I’m all about experimenting with new breakfast recipes (especially because I want to follow a breakfastism diet), I like having a collection of go-to recipes on deck that don’t require me to think. They can just be thrown…

Despite this sometimes unfortunate quality, I’ve learned how to work past the intense desire to be a vegetable on the couch to actually get stuff done. Healthy living, especially, requires…
Sweet Peach Iced Tea
Cool down with a refreshing glass of iced tea sweetened and flavored with homemade peach simple syrup. I’ve been on an iced tea kick for awhile, and today I’m taking it to a new level. I said it in my July favorites, and I’m here to remind you how wonderful iced tea is. Since I…
Our Spontaneous Vegas Vacation
Since I don’t share nearly as much life happenings as I used to, I figured I’d mix the blog up a bit and post a little recap of a somewhat spontaneous trip Matt and I recently returned from – Vegassssss! A weird thing about me: I hate going on vacation. Why? Because I feel like…
5 Tips for Eating More Veggies
Happy Labor Day! I hope you’re relaxing today – whether that means grilling out, spending time with friends, or just not working. We’re coming down from a spontaneous little weekend getaway (more on that later), so I’m not sure if we’ll be doing much of anything today…but I predict it will be a much-needed labor-less…
4-Year Blogging Anniversary
Funny story: On Tuesday night, I was lying in bed trying to get to sleep and then, out of absolutely nowhere, it hit me: I straight-up forgot that I hit the four-year mark of blogging recently. Every year at the beginning of August, I share a post about my “blogaversary.” The fact I missed this…
