Chocolate Love Brownies

February 12, 2013 by Melissa

Ok, this is the final easy peasy "recipe" I have for you, to make Valentine's Day as sweet as possible! I haven't met a man who doesn't love brownies, and I haven't met a woman that can't be swayed by pink sprinkles and heart-shaped treats on that special "day of love." So you should make these for your sweetie or subtly suggest (i.e. print this page and put it in their sandwich) they … [Read more...]

Fabulously Fit Friday 17

February 8, 2013 by Melissa

Today’s post is up a little late, but better late than never, right? I want to tell you a little tale, and I'll break it up with a few pictures of eats from the week, ok?   Last week, I had a bit of an awakening. While my trainer was out of town, she had me workout with the other trainer at the gym (they’re kind of a dynamic duo). So, while working out with the other trainer, Joe, we … [Read more...]

Chocolate Delight Popcorn Snack Mix

February 6, 2013 by Melissa

Last week there was a trivia night in my apartment complex. Steve and I aren't exactly the type of couple that attends organized events. I'm socially inept and a recluse while Steve values sitting in a lawn chair for hours without anybody invading his space (unless it's an activity that requires him to stay seated, because then he finds it unbearable to be sitting down and insists on … [Read more...]

Chocolate-Dipped Valentine’s Marshmallow Pops

February 4, 2013 by Melissa

I want to make this the easiest Valentine’s Day for you yet! So, I have a series of recipes for you… But they’re not really recipes I guess. They’re more like quick-assembly treats. Relieved? Thought you would be! Valentine’s Day, whether you spend it with someone you love, with a group of friends, or even if you’re going to spend it alone surrounded by treats and chick flicks, should be … [Read more...]

Fabulously Fit Friday 16

February 1, 2013 by Melissa

I wanted to start by giving you a bit of an update on my fitness and health since the first month in the new year is already over. Can you believe that?? Are you still focused on smaller, obtainable healthy-living goals (because resolutions are too daunting!)? Just remember, every moment of every day is a new opportunity to get back on track! I've been working with a trainer since January … [Read more...]

Pumpkin Chai Cupcakes

January 30, 2013 by Melissa

This weather has been really throwing me off! One day, its the dead of winter, then the next its a breezy, sunny Autumn wonderland and I can take a 3 mile walk in shorts. Well, you can take the winter, I'll take the sunny Fall-fest, mm'kay? It just shows, hopefully, that Spring is just around the corner. I'm ready! In the meantime, the cold nights have me snuggling up with a warm cup … [Read more...]

“Breakfast For Dinner” Cookbook Review and a GIVEAWAY

January 29, 2013 by Melissa

When I received a copy of Lindsay Landis and Taylor Hackbarth’s (the dynamic duo behind Love and Olive Oil) new cookbook, Breakfast for Dinner, I squealed with delight. Then, I locked myself in the bedroom and read the whole thing, cover-to-cover.   When it comes to breakfast, I’d like to consider myself a die-hard fan. Have you clicked on my “What’s For Breakfast?” tab lately? In fact, … [Read more...]
