I go through phases when I crave yogurt parfaits like crazy and most of the time I end up having one mid-day as a snack or after dinner as my dessert. I like to make my parfaits with Greek yogurt for added protein and every now and then I switch up the crunchy topping […]
I don’t know about you, but I love big portions when it comes to chips and dip! I also know how many calories that can add up to. I’m always looking for ways to cut calories without cutting flavor and this creamy avocado dip is the PERFECT example. If you love the consistency and texture of […]
I love puff pastry because you can top it or fill it with just about anything, sweet or savory. I always have lots of asparagus and sun-dried tomatoes in the fridge from making my Couscous Breakfast Bowl and Orzo with Mushrooms, Asparagus & Cherry Tomatoes so I wanted to incorporate these ingredients into an appetizer. […]
I love recycling jars, wine bottles, canisters, anything that I can make into a DIY project! I made this practical little coffee canister right before my husband and I went on a camping trip to Napa Valley. We were packing our French Press and I realized we needed something to put our ground coffee in. […]
I have to give credit to my amazing mom for this recipe. She’s made this and variations of this recipe all throughout my childhood. It’s filled with delicious flavor and not to mention the puff pastry just melts in your mouth. It’s a perfect snack in the middle of the day and it’ll WOW your […]
There’s a full moon tonight which means adventure time for the Wells family! We figured since there are so many beautiful spots to explore around us, why not make a trip out of the full moon tonight. We love star gazing and teaching Emma about space and the stars so we are so excited to […]
One thing I’ve learned from being a mom to Emma is that she constantly wants to be challenged and learning. She’s happiest when we are doing something new and she loves to be outdoors. Toys are great for keeping kids busy, and educational ones are even better, but there’s nothing she loves more than being […]
My husband loves pie and we both love cheesecake, so when I started thinking of this recipe I knew I wanted to combine the two. Really this dessert is more of a cheesecake in pie form but I still like calling it cheesecake pie to put a smile on my husband’s face. 4th of July […]

The inspiration for these cookies is a yummy chocolate bar by Chocolove; Toffee & Almonds in Milk Chocolate. Chocolove chocolate bars really set the mood. While you’re eating your chocolate you get to enjoy a love poem written right inside the wrapper. So adorable! But what I was really thinking when I first tasted this chocolate was […]
Chirping birds gently awoke me this Sunday morning as if they were calling me outside to play. I picked a simple rose to photograph and then my mind just wandered, dreaming and exploring. After reading some Descartes the other week I was inspired by a quote and a few decorations from home. Needless to say, […]
