Homemade Bang Bang Shrimp Sauce

RECIPES

Shrimp tacos by the fire, anyone? Ha. It was a cozy day when I made these and it made it extra fun for taking photos. There’s a Mexican restaurant around the corner from us and I order shrimp tacos everyyyy time. I decided that the sauce is really what makes the meal so enticing to me so I did a little research to find a recipe to recreate it at home. And I found this whole30 friendly one from...

But there are many instances in which you might want to deploy a quiet bag. It could be a long car ride, nap time, or simply just trying to get dinner on the table without the...

A Girls Weekend in Scottsdale!

USA

Over the weekend I escaped to Scottsdale with two of my close girlfriends for a little mamas getaway. We planned it months ago without hesitation after a previous trip realizing how well we travel together! An easy peasy group. Scottsdale is a special place to me because I attended ASU for two years and growing up, my family would visit my grandparents in Desert Mountain. I love the desert, the endless sunshine, and that feeling of escape when I...

Seared Chicken Tacos with Corn Salsa

RECIPES

I mentioned the other day how much I love recipes from The Defined Dish and I just made her seared chicken tacos and truly think she is the best food blog I’ve ever discovered. I think if you really want to knock someone’s socks off, make this exactly how she did. I skipped a couple of steps to make this a little faster and more simple and still got AMAZING flavor, so I can only imagine the taste if...

9 Months with Jack

MILESTONES

I can’t believe my little buddy is 9 months old, sitting up, crawling, and laughing whenever his siblings give him a little extra attention. Where did the time go? I love this age. Jack is so happy. He’s is moving around (although his crawl is still a bit of inch worming.) He loves things that crinkle and he loves flipping pages of his books. He’s slowly losing interest in the bouncer which makes me sad because he has loved...

In a Happy Head Space

BLOGGING•OUTFITS

Hi hi hi! How is everyone doing? I feel like I’m in a really good head space right now. My January challenge has been going well and I’ve felt both incredibly productive and healthy this month. From at home facials, early bedtimes, meal planning, to knocking all those things off my to-do list, I’ve felt this weight I didn’t even realize I was carrying lift from me. Taking a break from social media has given me the opportunity to...

Blueberry Avocado Muffins

RECIPES•TODDLER

Trust me when I say these are the most delicious muffins I’ve ever made. And the ingredients are oh so healthy. Even my picky eater who doesn’t touch fruit ate the warm blueberries in these muffins in a few gulps. The recipe we used is from Baby Foode and it’s meant for mini-muffins. But we doubled up on these to make the full size. I’ve baked these twice now to make sure the goodness is the same after doubling...
