It was a busy one as usual, but it was great. I’m just crossing my fingers that Tucson will finally get the “it’s fall, ya’ll” memo and cool the heck down. It was 108 this weekend! From late October through May, the weather around here is pretty great. It’s almost like Tucson is reverse hibernation – we hide in the pool and AC all summer – and when cooler weather hits, we’re freeeeeee. It rarely gets *too cold* around here, and the snowbirds descend here in droves, ready to drive 25mph all over the city. There are so many things I love to do when it finally cools down: more outdoor adventures, hiking, long walks with Maisey, outdoor events and dining, and curling up at night with a mug of my favorit...

Homemade peanut butter protein bars Sharing a super delicious and healthy homemade peanut butter protein bars recipe! Perfect for meal prep and grab-and-go snacks. Plus, they’re gluten-free and dairy-free. Hey! How are you? I hope you are having a great week! With so much going on around here, this week seems to be flying by. Between work and things with the kids, my days have been especially hectic, so I’ve been reaching for quick and easy meals and snacks. Which brings me to today’s post. How about a little protein bar with your morning coffee? I love protein bars as an on-the-go snack because they’re healthy yet delicious.

My top bars right now are these good! bars (which are impossible to find; usually Sprouts has them), Aloha , and the chocolate whole food bars. Homemade peanut butter protein bars While it is possible to find tasty ones with good ingredients, they can also be a bit on...

Journaling prompts to use this fall Sharing some journaling prompts you can use as we wrap up the last portion of the year.  Hiiii friends! Happy Wednesday! What do you have going on this week? My newest baby niece will be born this week and I can’t wait! I’m excited to put some baby meals together 🙂 Today, I wanted to chat about something that has changed my morning routine: journaling. I always heard people talking about it, but didn’t want to give it a try because it felt awkward and uncomfortable. I’m supposed to just… write?? Write about what? What if it isn’t good? What if someone reads it and was like wth is wrong with this person? It made me nervous to write something so effortlessly, without the power to brainstorm, strategize and delete.
