naturebox giveaway.

A couple of weeks ago I told you how much I loved NatureBox. Their snacks are not only delicious but also healthy, and perfect to throw in a baggie for a portable snack. That’s why I was so exited when NatureBox offered to send me another box with five new snack varieties for me to

I’d consider going vegan for these.

The rest of the world may be starting season 6 of Mad Men, but this cable-less chick is just beginning season 5 now that it’s finally on Netflix. And that makes me happy.

My love for obnoxious jewelry is more acceptable than ever. That makes me happy too.

how to end the week right.

It’s Saturdayyyyy!

I don’t know about you, but this past week seems to have flown by. I didn’t anticipate it being the craziest of weeks, but my days lately have just been booked from start to finish. Throw some (sort of serious) blog issues into the mix…and, let’s just say I was excited to get

Remember that time I was mostly a food blogger?
