Here is the 3rd week of the summer splits challenge in pictures. I wrote a few paragraphs on updates we've done to our house so far (sparked by the green door picture), but they didn't really seem to flow with a post about yoga poses. So for this pose I'll just share these pictures and … Continue reading Summer Splits Challenge Week 3
Independence ARMy Yoga Challenge
After some internal debating, I decided to fully jump on board for the Independence ARMy yoga challenge for July. At first, I was hesitant because I think I'll struggle with a lot of the poses, but in the end I decided that it's probably a good thing to do a *challenging* challenge. I'd also like … Continue reading Independence ARMy Yoga Challenge
June Yoga Splits Challenge and Being in the Spotlight
Here are my week 2 pictures for the June Summer Splits Challenge. I must say, I'm really enjoying this challenge. It's an awesome feeling knowing that I've done yoga every single day for the past 55 days.

Yoga Every Day in May and the Topic of Yoga Selfies
For the month of May, I decided to do a 30 day yoga challenge. I did yoga every single day, without fail, and posted a picture on Instagram and Twitter. Some days I did a full yoga routine, usually the p90x3 workout because it's one of my favorites, and some days I focused on one pose and worked … Continue reading Yoga Every Day in May and the Topic of Yoga Selfies
Easy Summer Dessert: {vegan} Fruit Tart
This dessert is a deceptively simple crowd pleaser. It's light and refreshing with minimal processed sugar. It's also beautiful, and almost impossible to screw up. I've brought this to two family gatherings so far, and it's been a huge hit. No one ever suspects that it's vegan! A few notes, be sure to cut up the fruit … Continue reading Easy Summer Dessert: {vegan} Fruit Tart
Clearance Clothing Haul
I've been making a conscious effort to buy things we need as opposed to want but I was a total sucker when I got a recent 70% off clearance plus free shipping email from Abercrombie. Since it was free shipping on all orders I was just going to buy a burnout tank because I bought … Continue reading Clearance Clothing Haul
Mother's Day Weekend in Pictures
On Mother's Day, we took our annual trip to IKEA and Trader Joe's. I did good, and only spent about $100. We got ideas for our kitchen island, and really liked the layout of this walk-in pantry they had on the showroom floor. Of course, I had a list of things to get from IKEA, and … Continue reading Mother's Day Weekend in Pictures
Recipe: Incredibly Easy Homemade Cannoli
When I was growing up, every Saturday after dance class we'd pick up a pizza for dinner from an Italian restaurant near my house. Every once in a while we'd get cannolis because they had *the* best homemade cannolis. I'm super snobby about cannolis (and tirimisu) and I promise these will not disappoint. I was … Continue reading Recipe: Incredibly Easy Homemade Cannoli
Review: Montagne Jeunesse Face Masks
I've been searching for the past 9 months, since we bought our house, for a skin care routine that will help all the breakouts I've been getting from our hard water. I've tried a million (slight exaggeration) different things, all with varying degrees of effectiveness. Montagne Jeunesse sent me a few of these face masks to try, and … Continue reading Review: Montagne Jeunesse Face Masks
