A waffle iron was something I forgot to register for when we got married – so until recently I’d never made waffles before! I recently got this Bella Stainless Steel Rotary Waffle Iron  to try out and LOVE it — and the price (under $30!). I know when Piper gets older it will be a fun […]

There’s nothing like eating a burger & fries while scrolling through your Instagram feed and seeing a ton of beautifully styled, delicious, healthy recipes! Time for a wake up call now that 2016 is officially here — most of us are inspired to eat more healthy and make better choices when it comes to fitness […]

It is no secret that I love pumpkin recipes! This one for pumpkin pie pop-tarts is definitely one of my favorites. They are pretty simple to make and are perfect for a weekend treat. I also love the idea of making them ahead of time and serving them on Thanksgiving morning. Ingredients 2 pre-made pie […]

Two things that I love about fall are pumpkin recipes and warm, cozy drinks. That being said, Pumpkin Chai Lattes are my go-to! I’m sharing a simple recipe on the Glitter Guide which you can find here– it is a must-try if you love pumpkin & enjoy chai lattes. Images by Anna Reynal

Sweet treats are my thing — they always have been and especially were when I was pregnant (I ate ice cream every single night for 9 months — you’d think Piper would like dairy after all that!). Since I began my dairy & soy free diet I’ve really missed my donuts and had been wanting […]

  I’m not too thrilled to include the words ‘dairy & soy free’ with this recipe but I’ve had to eliminate all dairy and soy from my diet because our pediatrician thinks that Piper may have a sensitivity. It’s been 2 weeks that I’ve been off and it wouldn’t be so bad if I didn’t […]

  I’ve been wanting to try homemade pop tarts ever since my sister made them for my bridal shower last year  and I thought it would be cute to make a heart shaped version last weekend for our niece and nephews. While this recipe is really easy it requires a lot of steps, and a […]

While I was doing some holiday shopping at Target the other day I decided it was time to officially kick off my holiday baking! I love these soft & chewy gingerbread cookies that Trader Joe’s sells and I sought out a recipe that would replicate them. I got lucky on the first try with Brown […]

What a week! I couldn’t be more excited that today is Friday! And I have the perfect “recipe” to share with you to make over the weekend. I love mulling spices — in both apple cider and red wine, yum! Today I’m sharing how you can make little bags of mulling spices to give as […]

These recipes are even easier than Friday night pizza – my usual preference for the end of the week, especially now that I don’t have to fit into a wedding dress! They take under 30 minutes to make and bake and also use ingredients you likely already have on hand. These flatbreads would also be […]

There’s nothing I love more than a cozy night in during the fall and winter months — good friends and good wine are also a plus! So for my final post with Food Should Taste Good I put together a little relaxing night — complete with 2 different kinds of flatbreads, an array of cheeses, […]
