My heart is on an island somewhere today. I feel like everyone on Instagram is in a tropical paradise somewhere, amiright? We are desperate to go to the beach and want to know your recommendations for best beach vacation spots from the Outer Banks to the Caribbean and Mexico. I want them all! (please) In the mean time, I thought I'd bring the beach vibe to Charlotte today and make my own tropical smoothie. This recipe is sweet, smooth and simple. Tropical Smoothie 1 cup ... View the Post
Cucumber Sandwiches
Liverpool was recently in the Champion's League Final vs Real Madrid (we don't want to talk about it) so we had some friends over to watch the game. I have such good intentions about a big feast and then the reality of life with a baby hits me and I just pull things together last minute. I was hoping to have more "English themed" snacks like my delicious scones with tea and jam but time ran away from me and I just managed to do cucumber sandwiches and my favorite decadent chocolate cake. Luckily ... View the Post
Vegan Meal Plans June 11-17
I was asked by a number of you lovely readers to share my meal plans so I'll be posting something very simple like this each week for you to hopefully get some ideas for your own meal planning. I usually look through my cookbooks, check out beautiful pictures on Instagram with the hashtag #veganmeals or #veganfood, or search good 'ole Pinterest for some inspiration. I don't necessarily need a recipe to follow as I usually do my own thing anyway, but sometimes it's nice to follow instructions ... View the Post
Teaching my first yoga class
When I took my training at Y2 last Summer (I can't believe it's been a whole year already) I thought I would dive into teaching so naturally. I knew if I started before baby arrived I would take a break but I didn't think it would take me this long to finally get the courage up to teach. I also didn't expect to find it difficult especially having taught in some form (Elementary School) for eight years. I love being good at things right from the beginning (silly and unrealistic, I know) so ... View the Post
Oliver’s 8 month update: Separation anxiety + Getting on a schedule-ish
Catch up on previous updates: Oliver's birth story | Month 1+2 | Month 3 | Month 4 | Month 5 | Month 6 | Month 7 | (Outfit deets: Jeans- Gap (old) similar, similar, similar | Shirt | Old Navy ) This month has been an interesting one. Oliver is moving around so much, and getting into so many things that he has me on my toes. He isn't crawling just yet but is so close it could happen any moment. Every time I turn around, he has scooted backwards and found something he shouldn't like a ... View the Post
Vegan Taco Salad
My Aunty Cheri introduced me to the wonderful meal that is the taco salad and I was very excited to make a vegan version. It's on our meal plans every week because the leftovers are a must for #momlife and it's not hot and heavy so you can enjoy it outdoors on the deck. Daniel and I took this meal to a friend's house and their 3 year old asked for more before he had even finished his bowl! That just makes a cook's heart melt and I love that it's a great family meal for when Ollie starts ... View the Post
