10 of my favorite Cinco de Mayo Recipes
I absolutely love Cinco de Mayo. Another reason to have a margarita the size of my head? Check. Dance to mariachis? Si si. Spend time eating delicious food with the fam? Yep yep yep. Ok, so it’s not really much different than any other day over here, but I’m still a fan 😉 Nana…

-The way Caroline sleeps in the middle splits. She’s quite an accomplished canine yogini. -Homemade bubbles. Easiest thing ever- vegetable glycerin, dish soap + water. The bubble queen is a huge fan, and it’s nice to be able to quickly make more bubble mix at home sans chemicals. [Side note: I have an awesome little…

Our Friday was the perfect mix of productivity and fun, finished off by an amazing family dinner, a date night with the Pilot, and a visit with this little queen. [Viesa!! It was so good to see her furry face.]

Last night, we had a blast celebrating Kyle’s bday with the fam. All the usual feast suspects were also in attendance, including madre’s glorious enchilada casserole beans, jars of salsa that will set your soul on fire and she also picked up some cupcakes for the Ravens fan. After our amazing dinner, we went home…

Hi friends 🙂 Thank you for all of the Caro tips! I can always count on you for great advice- just ordered her some antler treats to chew on since latest object of destruction was a bamboo spatula. Last night was girls’ night: Liv, myself, Bella and Caroline. The Pilot has his Master’s class on…

I’ve mentioned before that I tend to suffer from workout accomplishment amnesia. This means that I’ll run 10 miles and then a week later, on my long run day, I doubt my ability to do more than 3. It shocks me that I was able to do such a long distance the week before. Anyone…

Hi friends <3 I loved reading your responses on this morning’s post! I had no idea so many went commando at the gym, but totally understand- the liners are there for a reason, eh? After a few responses, just wanted to clarify that I couldn’t give a flying you-know about other peopler’s panty lines. You…

We’ve spent almost all of our Friday outside- it’s the “sweet spot” in Tucson when the scorching heat takes a vacay and pleasant breeze takes over. It’s short-lived before it becomes freeeeeezing (which in AZ is about 30-40*- I’m a wuss and I know it), so I love to take advantage of this time as…

– I took tamales to work today. They were a huge hit, and while everyone was gushing about how amazing they were, I couldn’t take credit for the work. All I did to contribute was the tamale deal in the Taco Bell parking lot. Nana picked them up from our tamale man, and I picked…

– Weekly Mexican feast with my favorite people. We dined at Blanco, I had the usual shrimp tacos, and the server also brought out two new salsas + guacamole. Be still, my chip and salsa loving heart. -Took the new pantalones for a test drive, and a big flowery headband for my little love. I’ve…
