ABC smoothie
Is this a shake, a smoothie? I’m not quite sure. I guess I’ll settle on smoothie only because it has a banana in it, but it is so delicious and chocolaty I want to call it a shake! Seriously, I am obsessed with this smoothie. I have left overs in my fridge teasing me. Almond…
DIY: IKEA hack campaign dressers
If you know me, you know that I have a very distinct style when it comes to decorating, and it even spills over into my wardrobe. I am very traditional and classic when it comes to my design style. Lots of black and white, with some clean stripes and polka dots mixed in. Very traditional….

Roasted Vegetable Greek Salad
Anything with a Mediterranean vibe to it and I am there. Something about the combination of fresh food, herbs, and feta will never get old. Also! Marinated Artichokes, I’m in.

DIY Scripted Art
Completely 100% inspired by this amazing lady. The black and white hooked me and the script writing pushed me over. This was a fun project that I was able to complete in an afternoon-drying time and all. The hardest part was deciding which lyrics I wanted to display. I ended up choosing the chorus to…
