HelloFresh Delivers - In More Ways Than One!

HelloFresh Delivers - In More Ways Than One!

Sometimes moms come up with some great ideas, and this was one of them.

A few months back my loving and resourceful mother suggested to me and Ethan that we look into food delivery services so that we could be more fiscally responsible - rather than eating out almost every night. Also because it’s healthier for you and, as we’d soon discover, more fun and convenient than trying to shop for groceries and cooking our own food from scratch.

An SOS To All Morning People

An SOS To All Morning People

I think there is this misconception that people who showcase a large portion of their life on the internet (i.e. Bloggers, "Instagram Girls", YouTubers, Beauty Gurus, and the like) have it all figured out. Their content often includes advice and clever how-tos that make it seem like they glide through life with ease. But while much of this might be true, I believe it's important to showcase the moments where Bloggers, like myself, and others, need a little help, too.

We're Plant Parents! ☘️🌿🍃🎍🌵🌳🌱

We're Plant Parents! ☘️🌿🍃🎍🌵🌳🌱

Ethan and I are both the all-or-nothing type. So, just over a week ago when I said that I thought our living space could use a plant or two, we both took that as an excuse to start a full-on garden. No, seriously. 🙃 We are now the proud Plant Parents to 15 new plant friends. I love each and every one of them for their beauty, and the clean air and peace that they bring to our space. Plus, now I feel very needed. Owning plants is a very fun and rewarding hobby and community that I’m so glad to now be apart of.

Thanks Maple Holistics For My Silk18 Conditioner - From Me and My Hair

One of the COOLEST perks of doing this is the occasional opportunity to work with some really cool companies and brands to showcase their awesome products.

I've done product reviews before on my blog, so many of you know the drill. I try and be as authentic and genuine as possible when shouting out to a company. I want you all to know my honest thoughts so you can make the best judgements for yourself about what to try and buy.

Having that little disclaimer out of the way, let's jump right into the product for today, shall we?

I'm Getting A Haircut

I'm Getting A Haircut

Happy #Sundayfunday, friends.

Can we talk about #Sundayfunday for a minute? I hate Sundays. They are absolutely my least favorite day of the week. I think that #Sundayfunday was just created so that people have a reason to not dislike Sunday so much. Because really, without it, it’s just the day of the week you typically get housework and errands done and when the Monday scaries start to set in. The weekend is nearly over and it’s back to the real world. All in all, Sundays are just not that fun.

14 Non-Verbal Ways They Show You They Love You

14 Non-Verbal Ways They Show You They Love You

As many of you know, I live with my boyfriend, Ethan. We’ve been living in our cute little apartment together in Eastern Michigan for about 6 months now and wowza has it been a wild ride.

In so many ways, he is the perfect roommate. He’s tidy, he’s quiet, and I adore him, so cuddling and watching tv on the couch on weeknights is the best thing ever.

But living with a boyfriend is, of course, a culture shock of sorts.

Like many other multi-tasking, Type-A folks out there, I love a good planner.

I'm Detoxing - Week One

I'm Detoxing - Week One

I'm detoxing and it sucks. Seriously, it sucks. Don't worry, I'm not detoxing from drugs, just donuts… For the last week or so, I've been on a no sugary foods diet. I have not eaten or drank one sugary thing since last Monday and I am both suffering and supremely proud of myself simultaneously.

11 Skin and Hair Products I Swear By

11 Skin and Hair Products I Swear By

I, like many women, truly enjoy pampering myself and taking care of my skin and hair to look my best. Over the last ten-or-so years, I’ve literally tried (what feels like) every product on the market. I’m not the easiest person to choose skincare for because I have both sensitive skin that reacts pretty harshly to many products out there - even certain laundry detergents can cause issues for me - as well as life-long acne-prone skin. But, alas, after years and years of trial and error, I can definitively rule most everything I’ve tried out.

Tidying My Closet With Marie Kondo

Tidying My Closet With Marie Kondo

I’m usually pretty late to the party when it comes to trends of any kind - the last to read, buy, or watch just about anything. But I’m proud to feel apart of the crowd this time around because I finished “Tidying Up With Marie Condo” on Netflix earlier this week and many people are starting and finishing the series right along with me.

16 Incredible Content Creators Who Inspire Me to Create

16 Incredible Content Creators Who Inspire Me to Create

I love creating content. I’ve always been creative, but when I discovered my love of writing at University and started documenting my life on my first blog, I realized that I love telling stories for the world to hear (or read). If I’m honest, I’ve always loved telling stories. My parents say that I used to stand up in public places as a little child and tell stories to the whole room. I guess things haven’t changed much since then, have they?
