Happy New Year Friends! I hope you and your family had a wonderful holiday season and a spectacular start to the new year. I think 2017 is going to be a really great year! It’s that time where people reflect on the past year, analyzing every detail to figure out what went right, what went wrong […]
When I think of the colder months, I can’t help but think about the cozy blankets, comfy clothes and soul-warming food. Being bundled up under a comforter, wearing your favorite fuzzy socks while holding a mug of creamy hot chocolate sounds like the ultimate dream. I’ve got you covered on the hot chocolate with a […]
The other day, I saw an article that blew my mind. Some of you may have even seen it, as it was shared over 300k times. Because it seemed pretty viral, I felt like I had to give “You Attack My Size 0, But I Can’t Attack Your Size 16” a read, but it completely rubbed me […]
I’m personally not a huge fan of Mondays. While I do appreciate a chance to start fresh each week, after a crazy weekend, I usually haven’t re-gathered myself into a functional human until Tuesday.

The possibilities are endless – I’m learning new ways to use my oils every single day! Before I bought my first oils, I […]

Talk about nutritious… I firmly believe that life is all about balance, but I struggled with balance as every restaurant in North Carolina had hush puppies […]
Almond milk isn’t anything new – nearly everyone knows what it is. It’s a great alternative for those who are lactose intolerant or vegan, or even for those who just hate cow’s milk. But haven’t you ever wondered how almond milk is made? You can’t really “milk” an almond like you can milk a cow… […]
Before vacation, some part of me decided I needed to wash all of my clothes. Every. Single. Thing. Don’t ask – even I have no explanation for my radical behavior. Load after load, I began to realize the reason for the heap of clothes on my floor… I had no more room in my dresser […]
