What I’m loving

I have a few recent obsessions Orange in chocolate. Ever since the TJs christmas chocolate oranges I can’t get enough of this pairing.  I’m not big on citrus outside of this, so it’s odd.  Anyway, the Lindt bar in the center above was the best of the bunch. This cookbook.  Full review (non sponsored) coming soon because I can’t stop cooking from it. Thrive Market.  If I’m not their number one fan, I don’t know who is.  That link gives you 15% off your first order FYI. BARnana dark chocolate chewy banana bites! I got… Read more >

The weekly menu

Two (and now three since I started this post) whole weeks have passed without my weekly dinner wraps up!  Yikes.  There were such good ones too.  I always say that don’t I?  Not to toot my own horn, but I don’t like making blah recipes so whenever I meal plan I try to pick out meals that are different (and delicious, obvs).  Do you eat the same thing from week to week?  Or do you read cookbooks and blogs and bookmark things like I do?  I’m genuinely curious about how the rest of you eat…do you… Read more >

Check listing

I was so on top of my meal prepping game this January!  It was one of my goals for the year because I think it’s an area of my life that I can change that will bleed (in a positive way) into the rest of my life.  Plus, any excuse to add more checklists into my day is 100% welcomed.

The weekly menu

I was just going to skip this past week’s meals because I got so behind but some are worth sharing (because I think you guys should know about these for your own menu planning) but also, I may actually post a recipe.  Gasp!!  I know, I know, I made something from my own kitchen that wasn’t directly from a cookbook/blog that actually requires written out instructions!  It was monumental for another reason too.  It was the first recipe that I made that ALL FOUR OF US ate.  The same exact dinner!  Can you believe it???  I’m so thrilled… Read more >

A complete kit

So.  It’s taking me a while to get around to posting last week’s dinners…in the meantime lemme tell you what’s been rocking my world the past week or so. Kale salad love on HHH, shocking right?  NOT.  NOT NOT NOT.  But you guys… Trader Joe’s wins.  WINS I tell ya.  It’s basically the veg version of this salad (which I have been buying way too frequently since discovering it back in July).  The salad dressing isn’t the same one as the pre-packaged salad, which is a bummer because the spicy dressing is almost the best part of the kit (I wrote to… Read more >
