HOLY MOLY I’M BACK, Y'ALL!! You probably didn’t notice (or maybe you did, and in that case iluvu) but I took a wee little (cough, 4-month) break from this little butter-filled online world I’ve created. I know. Four months. WHUT. I have no idea how it happened but...
All the flowering trees in Austin are in bloom (so, allergies are in full swing, achoo!), grocery store shelves are stocked with little marshmallow bunnies and chicks in every shade of pastel, and I’m feeling like it’s just about time to pull my white jeans out...
Confession: I’m currently on Day 10 of the Whole30. Which doesn’t seem like the most fitting thing to share with you as I wave enticing photos of intensely rich and delicious, chocolate-y peanut butter and bourbon cake (+ salted caramel!) in front of your face, but...

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of KitchenAid. All opinions and text are mine. Happy Friday! I really, really can’t believe it’s already here. Seriously, I think I blinked on Monday and woot! Hello Friday! And you guys, it’s not just any...
It’s getting to that point in the summer where my air conditioner is constantly a’hummin’ and my utility bill is high enough to warrant the consumption of budget-friendly beans and rice for dinner every night until we see temps below 85F again. How in the...
