As I walked into whole foods this past weekend, the beautiful display of figs caught my eye. Confession, I’ve always loved fig newtons as a kid. Strange perhaps, yes, but they are just so naturally sweet and delicious!

Gluten free banana bread recipe
Remember the whole Paleo thing..? Well, it lasts about 3 days any time I even think about venturing to eat no carbs.

DIY: Nautical Rope Vase
Remember a few weeks ago when I did that spray painted vase? Well, as I mentioned, one of them had gotten botched. I just put it aside and figured, eh, I’ll eventually figure out what to do with it.

Peru has a special place in my heart. A little over 2 years ago, after hiking the Inca trail to Machu Picchu for 4 days with my amazing man, he got down on one knee and proposed.

Tipsy Tuesday: Grilled Peach Bellini
