Hi, friends! We’re already more than half way through June (what?!) and I haven’t done one of these little currently updates since early May. Hope you’re all having a good week! I’m going stir-crazy thanks to Tropical Storm Cindy, but it’s been a pretty good week so far. Currently // June 2017
Sea Salt and Maca Coconut Oil Freezer Chocolate
This sea salt and maca coconut oil freezer chocolate is delicious and a breeze to make. When the chocolate craving hits hard, just reach into the freezer! Happy belated Father’s Day to all the dads out there! Our Father’s Day weekend did not go according to plan. Just as we were getting ready to drop…
Self-Care: It’s About the Interior, Not the Exterior
Lately I’ve been talking a lot about self-care. In fact, you might be grumbling to yourself “no, not again!” but I just can’t help it. “Self-care” is a buzzword we never stop hearing, but that’s for good reason because we often neglect to care for ourselves. We put everybody else’s wellbeing above our own, and…
2017 Summer Reading List
Ever since I became a grown-up and bought a library card last year, I’ve been on a huge reading kick. I’ve always loved reading and escaping into the world of words, but lately I’ve found it even more comforting and restful to fall deeply into a good story. Below you’ll find my summer reading list….
Motherhood Lately
It’s been a while since I’ve talked about mom life. Oh, motherhood—how exciting, hilarious, frustrating, tiring, emotional, and challenging you are! Bazooka is deep in the throes of “terrible two-dom,” and he can easily go from sweet angel to devil child in less than 0.043 seconds. He definitely keeps us on our toes! Even though…
Trying New Things with Scent Trunk
I am such a creature of habit. Often I eat the same thing—for weeks at a time—at breakfast. I have worn the same makeup brands since college. And the last time I drastically changed up my hair style was at least a decade ago. My mother-in-law is a huge fan of all things scented and goes…
I Ate My Words (Atop Some Sweet Potato Toast)
This may come as a shock to those who know me well, but I am a person who functions in extremes. I’m either extremely on or extremely off. (Hence why control of my anxiety is a constant struggle.) Anyway, because I tend to function in extremes, I also tend to see certain trends, ideas, or lifestyle…
5 Ways to Ease Sleep Struggles
So…back in March I got a Fitbit. For years I said I would never get a fitness tracker (the idea seemed absurd—like it could become too addictive), but since I know for a fact that I’m more sedentary at work than I used to be, I (fit)bit the bullet. So far, I’m loving my brand…
Boring Self-Care
I recently (as in yesterday) discovered a new Instagram account called makedaisychains and the hashtag #boringselfcare. images via makedaisychains I actually love boring self-care!
Currently // May 2017
Hey guys—hope your week is off to a great start! Yesterday wasn’t too shabby, and we had a great weekend. We started Saturday early with the NAMI walk, grabbed a bite to eat from The Crepe Crusader food truck, took Bazooka to the park, and visited with my family for my aunt’s birthday. Sunday was…
