Avocado toast. Everyone seems to love it, critics claim millenials might have more money to buy a house if they stopped buying it, and well, it just tastes good. I have been eating avocado toast for a long time and had no idea it would become the food trend it now is. Five years ago when I was … [Read more...]
Fast and Easy Solar Eclipse Cookies
It's solar eclipse day and I am so excited! I remember looking through one of those cool pinhole boxes in school one year for a partial eclipse. Sadly, our county's school system is making all students remain indoors during the eclipse, so I'm taking the kiddo out of school for the afternoon. We are … [Read more...]

You guys - I did it. I have completed the seven books in the Harry Potter series and right now I just feel sad that it's over. I tried so hard to read this last one slowly, but really, how can one even take their time with this book. I stayed up until 1:30am the other night because there just wasn't … [Read more...]
Harry Potter & The Half Blood Prince Recap + Felix Felicis Cocktail
I loved Half Blood Prince. This one is running neck and neck with Goblet of Fire for my favorite of the series.

I'll admit I … [Read more...]
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix Recap + Professor McGonagall’s Ginger Newt Biscuit Recipe
I just finished Order of the Phoenix and while there were some key scenes and lots of important info, it definitely wasn't my favorite. My best friend's husband described the book as "filler" and while I don't entirely agree with that, I don't think he's too far off on the statement either. There … [Read more...]
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Recap + Canary Creams Recipe
Y'all, I just can't even describe how much I loved Goblet of Fire. This book moved me in so many ways. I knew that somehow Harry's name would come flying out of the Goblet of Fire, but so much of it just blew me away. Before I go any further, I have to say I was not a fan of the movie...at all. … [Read more...]
