Spending Dough on Sugar

I lack eloquence in my ability to adequately express emotion and gratitude. What I do not lack, however, is an overwhelming appreciation to all of you for taking the time to hear me out and offer your words of encouragement, support and understanding. You sure know how to help lay the body blues at bay! [...]

I wish I was a little bit Taller, I wish I was a Baller

This weekend I lived it up and became a baller for a night.
Saturday
Saturday morning started off in a pretty standard, not-so-ballin’ way. Stovetop oats with heated peach, one banana slice (going all out) and a sprinkle of chocolate PB2 powder on top. Okay so it was kinda [...]

Stolen Spring Break

Wait, what? It’s the weekend already? Where did my spring break go? Seriously, I cannot believe this week is already over, that is NOT right. Someone stole some of the days in there, I know it.

The Eats of Study Time

Okay. So. I have nothing exciting to report because school has been kicking my butt and owning my soul. This past week has consisted of eating, sleeping, studying and consoling friends. I feel like every time I turn around someone else is having some new issue to deal with. Midterm time just brings all kinds [...]
