Pura vida
Last week we got to spend a few days in the Outer Banks with Josh’s side of the family. The weather was absolute perfection and we spent our time playing on the beach, climbing sand dunes in search of wild horses, and enjoying homemade meals. One afternoon while the boys were napping, I biked down…

Loving lately [#24]
Goood morning! The babies are both napping right now so I thought I would hop on and share a few things I’ve been enjoying lately: –These peanut butter cookies… holy moly. SO GOOD. –Kai-Anne Clews poetry. Josh reminded me that Spotify is a thing and now I have an account and can’t stop listening to…

Loving lately [#23]
Comin’ atcha with another list of things I’m loving these days! –Lavender and Honey Kitchen. This recently opened up in Winston Salem and it is adorable. Their cinnamon rolls are insaaaane.

Loving lately [#22]
Hello from baby land! Navigating postpartum recovery while caring for two infants has been challenging, to say the least. Thankfully Josh and I have had tons of help from friends and family, and for that I am so so grateful. Even still, in the middle of the night it’s just us under this roof, and…

Foster care, cookies, & kitchari

Energy Bites
Hello friends! I hope everyone is enjoying the Christmas season so far. I had such a cozy start to my day this morning- journaling and drinking coffee out of my new mug while it rained outside. I love waking up to a day stretching out ahead of me, untouched by expectations or to-do lists. Such…

Chili recipe + life update
I’ll start with the life update: we moved! (Which you probably already know if you follow me on instagram.) This actually isn’t as exciting as it may sound, because we moved to a townhouse only 20 minutes away from our old apartment. So we are still in Raleigh, just a different part of it. It’s…

DIY Pickles
Soo until very recently, I did not know homemade pickles were a thing. I guess I just never really thought about it! A few weeks ago I came across a recipe in a Family Circle magazine (I’m secretly a middle-aged lady at heart) and thought I’d give it a whirl: Homemade Dill Pickles -2 lbs cucumbers -2/3 cup…

Sabbath – Part II
One of my first blog posts here was about taking a sabbath, but I have to confess that since then, I have gravitated back towards my own way of doing things. I am always well intentioned in setting aside a day of rest, and then it ends up looking a lot like completing random tasks…
