Ever since the beginning of high school, I have been excellent at joining things. That’s what people tell you to do, after all, whenever you’re in a new place: get involved. I’m not discrediting that. I’ve acquired a lot of skills and met a lot of really cool people by “getting involved” in activities in both…
Lemon Blueberry Muffins
If you’re reading this via email, click through to get the recipe. I’m working on fixing this, but for now it’s necessary. My apologies! Can I be extra lame and talk about the weather for a moment? It. Is. SPECTACULAR. Sorry to yell, but seriously. I wore a short-sleeve shirt yesterday without a jacket. It…
Five Friday Favorites 02/19/16
Happy Friday! How has your week been? I’m sorry we haven’t talked since Tuesday - this week has been a complete whirlwind and as slowly as parts of it went, it’s hard to believe it’s already over. That’s certainly not a bad thing, though. Anyway, the weekend sounds pretty lovely right now, but let’s kick it…
Day in the Life #10
Whenever I do day-in-the-life posts, they feel a little extra self-indulgent, but you all always seem interested in what I’m up to. I guess bloggers and blog-readers are a nosy bunch, eh? Anyway, since I have a pretty set posting routine in the latter half of the week, I often only chronicle my Mondays or Tuesdays….
Perfect Cinnamon Pancakes
Just as easy as boxed pancake mix and even tastier, Perfect Cinnamon Pancakes are a simple, surefire way to make any day a little more special. These light, fluffy pancakes come together in under a half an hour, are packed with protein, and full of sweet cinnamon and maple flavor. They’re as delicious on their own as they are piled high with all your favorite toppings. | www.myuncommoneveryday.com
Five Friday Favorites 02/12/16
Happy Friday! Like I mentioned yesterday, I have the day off class, but I have a couple of errands to run this morning and then an essay to start writing. I’ll keep busy. 😉 Anyway, it’s been an alright week, but there have been some serious bright spots. I can’t think of a better way to…
Thinking Out Loud #43
Hey hey! Happy Thinking Out Loud Thursday! I’m playing catch-up during the second half of this week due to a Tuesday midterm (which we shall not talk about), so I’m going to keep this intro pretty short. I’ll be back tomorrow with some of my favorites from the week, though, so be sure to come…
Chocolate-Covered Raspberry Donuts
When I was in sixth grade, the place to be on Friday nights was the local ice rink. “Friday Night Meltdown” was a big deal, and people would go and hang out with friends and eat stadium snacks and listen to top-40 hits. Was ice skating cool where you were in middle school? Is it a…
Five Friday Favorites: Winter Health Tips
Happy Friday! Today I’m switching up the usual Five Friday Favorites a bit. Winter is prime time for illness to hit. Whether it’s a minor cold or a more-severe flu, getting sick is no fun. And while sickness is not entirely avoidable, staying healthy is a pretty good goal. As a college student surrounded by other college students (germs everywhere!),…
Thinking Out Loud #42
Hey hi hello! Happy Thinking Out Loud Thursday! I am officially in midterm season so bear with me over the next couple of weeks. I intend to keep posting consistently, but sometimes responsibility dominates. That said, blogging is one of my absolute favorite stress relievers, pastimes, and just “things” in general, so know that if you’re reading, I…
