*Please note: I am not affiliated with Blue Apron and all opinions are my own. We did it, people. We subscribed to a food box. And the short of it is, it’s amazing. “Is this really for us?” If you’ve been following along for awhile, you know how much I loathe the grocery store.

The Vacation Hack I Wish Someone Had Told Me
Going on vacation is something we can pretty much all agree is awesome. No responsibilities, no worries, good food, good times, and that just general all-around good feeling. The only problem is coming home. While you can kind of recreate the no responsibilities by taking time off and having a staycation and you can kind of recreate…… Continue reading The Vacation Hack I Wish Someone Had Told Me
Meatless Monday: Spanakopita Triangles!
Χαίρετε! Hello! I’m back after my mini-hiatus. I hope you all had a lovely week- I know I sure did!

I love elephants. That’s why I’ll never ride one.
Elephants are my favorite animals. I’m obsessed. I have shirts with elephants, pants, posters, notebooks, you name it. Early in our dating chapter, my husband changed his background on his computer to an elephant just to make me smile- and he hasn’t changed it back yet. When I find another elephant lover it becomes a…… Continue reading I love elephants. That’s why I’ll never ride one.

Gratitude Journal: Honeymoon Edition
If you’re a regular reader of my blog, you know I’m big on gratitude! I thought I would take some time and reflect on this trip and all the ways I’m grateful for it (while my husband procrastinates showering and probably eventually ends up showering): The fact that we’re here. Look, I survived an international…… Continue reading Gratitude Journal: Honeymoon Edition
Honeymooning In Aruba, Days 2 & 3
Do we have to go home? I keep asking E if we can just ditch our real lives and be real life pirates of the Caribbean. I mean, hello, he did vow to support me in whatever I decide to do with my life, and being a pirate would be perfect, right? Right?? All you…… Continue reading Honeymooning In Aruba, Days 2 & 3
Hello, Aruba!
We arrived in Aruba yesterday! And I’m taking advantage of the fact that my handsome husband likes to sleep in to write a post about it. 😉 Before we left I was having major, major anxiety. Can you blame me? Not only is anxiety before travel somewhat normal for me (see Wanderlusting: Pre-Trip Anxiety), it was…… Continue reading Hello, Aruba!
