This post is sponsored by BeFit through my affiliation with Sweat Pink. As always, all thoughts and opinions are my own. I know there are many women who have it tougher than I do (single moms—how do you do it?!), but it goes without saying that sometimes I struggle to take care of myself. Specifically,…

Thinking Out Loud With A Survey
Hey, guys! Hope you’re having a lovely Thursday. Just hang in there—the weekend is right around the corner! Even though I have a ridiculous number of drafts in my folder, I thought I’d share a light-hearted post today. I saw this survey first on Peanut Butter Fingers, but I’ve seen it a number of places…
An Open Letter To The Women Who Read Healthy Living Blogs
I often have mixed feelings about the healthy living blogging community. I’ve come across some relatable and encouraging posts, I’ve shaken my head in disgust at certain images or quotes on Instagram, and I’ve even read a few blogs where I’ve developed a concern for the author’s health (based only on what I’ve read, of…
How Diets are Like Parenting (And Why You Should STFU About Both)
By this time of the year, people have either completed their Whole30 or 21-Day Fix or they are abandoning ship after failing to keep their hands out of the cookie jar. Everywhere I turn, it’s “eat clean” this or “cut out” that. Sometimes this talk makes me question my eating habits, will power, and willingness…
Von’s Bistro – A Review
To celebrate my birthday, we decided to try out a new (to us) restaurant while my mother watched the babe. I’ve heard great things about Von’s Bistro—which also has a food truck and well-loved market and eatery down in Bayou La Batre—so it’s been on our radar for a while. If you didn’t know of this place…
Currently // February 2016
Hey, friends! Did you all have a great weekend and special Valentine’s Day? The hubs grilled burgers and we oven-baked some sweet potato and regular fries—which was romantic enough for me. Saturday night, though, we went out to a fantastic dinner at Von’s Bistro to celebrate my birthday. I can’t wait to share my review…
Battling “Mom Brain” with truBrain (A Review)
Any mother will tell you that “mom brain” is a very real condition. In fact, science confirms it. Once Bazooka was born and sleep deprivation coupled with hormone-induced anxiety became the norm, my mom brain was here to stay. It became an even bigger problem when I returned to work and struggled to stay focused!…
32 Thoughts on My 32nd Birthday
Yesterday was my birthday! In honor of blessing this earth with my presence for 32 years, I thought I would share with you 32 thoughts about my 32nd birthday—thinking out loud style. 1// Waking up yesterday morning was a little tough—despite it being MY day. Bazooka has a bit of a cough so he spent the…
What a Working Mom Really Wants for Valentine’s Day
Hi folks! I had a lovely little Valentine’s gift guide scheduled for Monday, but I didn’t quite get to finish it. Now it’s too close to the 14th to justify posting it. You can pretty much do a Google search or head over to Pinterest and find about a zillion guides with the same old stuff, so…
5 Ways to Find Blogging Inspiration
It’s no secret that I love both writing and sharing my opinion, which is why blogging is such a (mostly) natural fit for me. If you’ve been a long term reader, however, you’ve probably noticed that my content waxes and wanes. Some weeks, I have tons of ideas and can’t possibly get them all on…
