Chocolate Banana Coconut Bites
I know you are what you eat, but it’s seriously concerning me that I haven’t sprouted into a dark chocolate bar of some sort. I think if you observed my veins under a microscope they’d be coursing with all sorts … Continue reading

#WIAW- I Eat Rainbows
If I still ate Lucky Charms, I would still pick out every marshmallow and save for a rainy day of gluttony. Although they were magically delicious, they weren’t very nutritious. (I know the leprechaun would disagree but I think I’ve … Continue reading

#WIAW- The Land of All Things Mini
I think I was about 5 when I had my first real Hello Kitty memory. It was a tiny HK set of markers with a tiny journal to match. I loved it because I was able to grasp the markers, … Continue reading
