Cherry “Buttermilk” Pancakes

November 20, 2013 by Melissa

There's nothing more comforting than pancakes.  Except for the comfort of eating them and knowing that they're actually pretty good for you.  And, lets face it, we need all the comfort we can get! With the weather swinging back and forth, allergies fading in and out, Christmas music feeling appropriate and then maybe not so much...we just need something comforting!  So, … [Read more...]

Peanut Butter Chip Donuts (gluten-free)

November 18, 2013 by Melissa

So I don't know how to break this to you but... I got a donut pan! Or is it doughnut? Guess what. I don't care! I had to break it in of course. Just like shoes.   And I had to break it in with a recipe that is healthy but doesn't taste healthy. Because nobody wants a donut that doesn't taste sinful. And seriously, these gluten-free donuts fit the bill! Just check the … [Read more...]

Fabulously Fit Friday 45

November 15, 2013 by Melissa

Remember that perfect shade of nail polish I found. That beautiful, perfect shade? Well...I think I jinxed myself. Because I'm allergic to my nail polish. Yup, allergic. To my nail polish.  If you saw this post I put up on Instagram then you'd know that I am a nail polish junkie. I go raid the new seasonal colors every time they roll out. So to hear my dermatologist tell me, after … [Read more...]

Orange Scented Cornbread

November 14, 2013 by Melissa

In case you hadn’t noticed, it suddenly got very cold outside. Unless you live in Hawaii… In which case, we’re not friends anymore because you clearly haven’t invited me to live with you…ok, we can still be friends but that invitation better be in the mail. Cold. Really cold. As in, my kitchen floor is frozen because I left the window open to let in the cool Fall breeze, but that breeze was … [Read more...]

Mixed Up Mint Brownies

November 12, 2013 by Melissa

So you saw my Candy Explosion Skillet Blondie, right? Yeah, drooled all over that.  But what were you supposed to do with all of the Junior Mints and York Peppermint Patties? You were hoarding them as "after dinner mints," right? Well... They're not after dinner mints. Nope. They're minty fresh, yes, but they're made for something more. Brownies. Yup, Mixed Up Mint Brownies. … [Read more...]

Candy Explosion Skillet Blondie

November 8, 2013 by Melissa

So I know you're at your wits end with all of that Halloween candy lying around. You're at that point where you're thinking "whelp, time to turn on the mouth vacuum and finish this all off."  Am I right? Or maybe you're sitting there, smeared with chocolate and surrounded by wrappers as you read this. That's cool too. So I just knew that I had to get this recipe to you. You can … [Read more...]

Coconut Lime Refresher

November 6, 2013 by Melissa

Ok, so it may not seem like "coconut lime season," but trust me, it is.  This is a drink. Not a smoothie.  A green drink. That doesn't taste like grass. Promise. Lime. Coconut. Banana. I've been hooked on this combo. I've been drinking this drink, like, twice a day. That's a big commitment.  I think it's important to have that go-to special drink that keeps you … [Read more...]

Kissing Broccoli and Feeling Smart

November 4, 2013 by Melissa

I had a really fun, relaxing weekend in Nashville with some amazing ladies.  My dear friend, Heather, (miss Kiss My Broccoli herself) graciously invited me over for the weekend, and we couldn't have had a better time together. We went to as many different cultural restaurants as we could, took a wonderfully long walk in the sunshine, snapped pictures of our breakfasts, and chatted … [Read more...]

Fabulously Fit Friday 44

November 1, 2013 by Melissa

Please tell me you dressed up for Halloween! Because… I didn’t. Instead of being festive and cool, I swiped on a new layer of nail polish then sat around wearing all black and eating cottage cheese like an old lady. Ok, I didn’t sit around ALL day. Newest obsession? Essie nail polish in Wicked. The perfect deep red that almost looks black. Love. I keep having those days lately … [Read more...]

Muddy Buddy Ritz

October 30, 2013 by Melissa

Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. And so humble. That's me! So. You know that moment when you're scarfing down Puppy Chow...Muddy Buddies...ya know...by the handful and you're thinking "gosh...what else can we turn into Muddy Buddies? Wouldn't these be better if they were bigger?"  Yeah, done. You're welcome.  You will absolutely DIE when you taste these! Seriously, the … [Read more...]
