    Butterfinger Minis

    May 5, 2022 /

    Confession: I’ve never tried Butterfingers before I was sent this bag of Butterfinger Minis. I used to get them in my Halloween bags when I was a kid, but I always gave them away because I wasn’t interested. I was more of a Kit Kat, Crunch, Twix kind of girl. But, I remember all the commercials featuring Bart Simpson. Do you remember those? Seeing as how I don’t have a huge sweet tooth, these mini sized ones are perfect for me. These chocolate peanut butter mini bars are really tasty and the perfect size for me! *This product was sent to my complimentary, but all opinions are my own. This…

    Welch’s Easter Fruit Snacks

    If you’ve been following me on here since last spring then you might remember they were kind enough to send me their Easter themed fruit snacks. This year they sent them to me again, but included some individual packs inside a plastic Easter egg! Such a cute idea for an Easter basket! Love that they come in small individual packs. Perfect for snacking and taking with you wherever you go. You know, if we could go places! I love these fruit snacks. They’re so yummy. No wonder they’re the #1 fruit snack brand! *These products were sent to me complimentary, but all opinions are my own.*

    Did you know May is National Strawberry Month? I didn’t until I was sent some great summer snacks with a heavy focus on Strawberries! If you remember, last month I was sent a yummy package from Welch’s filled with boxes of fruit snacks! This time I was sent a more diverse assortment of snacks but equally as delicious from Welch’s and My/Mo. Since it is National Strawberry Month I was sent Strawberry Fruit Snacks and My/Mo Strawberry Mochi! Non-strawberry related I was also sent a box of mixed fruit snacks and Fruit ‘n Yogurt in blueberry. I love the strawberry flavored fruit snacks. So good! And I love mochi in…

    Happy Wednesday! We’re almost halfway through the week and I’m so happy. This week has felt really weird for me. Not bad, just off. Last week, despite how crazy busy and tired I was – things felt good and right (if that makes sense). This week is slower paced and not as stressful and busy but I don’t feel quite right. It’s hard to explain, but hopefully you guys understand what I’m trying to say! I have a quick food post for you today. I wanted to make some kind of fall snack over the weekend so I made apple nachos. I saw some apple nachos on Pinterest that used…

    A student of mine was recently talking about how much she loved visiting Alaska on a vacation she went on last year and it reminded me of the trip I took to the beautiful state 2 years ago. Since I was reminiscing, I remembered I never shared a really easy and delicious snack courtesy of my trip to Alaska! If you followed my blog back 2 years ago, then you might remember I want on a land & cruise trip around Alaska. On one of the first days there, I went on a Riverboat trip. While on the boat, they had a few snacks made out of Captain Jim’s Smoked…

    Dried Fruit & Cheese Board

    April 13, 2018 /

    This cheeseboard snack is the easiest thing to put together that still looks like you put some thought in to it. All I did was cut some brie, grab some sliced almonds, dried apricots, and craisins. Seriously so easy! The creaminess of the brie with the sweet and tart flavors of the dried apricots and craisins work together so well. And then there’s the crunch of the sliced almonds for an extra bonus. So good! This is so easy, but I figured it might be an idea you may not have thought of so I wanted to share!

    Muddy Buddies or Puppy Chow or whatever you want to call it is something you may have made yourself before and/or most probably have eaten at some point. The not-too-sweet treat is addictive and easy to make. I hadn’t had it in years and was thinking of a simple snack I could make for Valentine’s Day. Making Muddy Buddies and adding in some valentine’s M&M’s seemed like the easiest idea! I used the recipe on the back of the Chex cereal box, but all you need are Chex, confectioner’s sugar, butter, peanut butter, and chocolate chips. What I did differently is I halved the recipe because the full recipe makes…

The Kingdom of the Feared is the last book in the The Kingdom of the Feared is the last book in the Kingdom of the Wicked trilogy by @kerrimaniscalco and I loved it 🖤. Each book was better than the last! I don't want to spoil it, but the book picks up exactly where Kingdom of the Cursed left off and now Emilia is more determined than ever to break the curse that is limiting her powers, messing with her memory, and also limiting Wrath and his brothers from their full power and freedom. Emilia works to uncover her true self. There were so many twists in this book that I didn't see coming and I loved every second of it. Emilia and Wrath were perfection and I loved their love for each other 🥹. The spice continues to kick up in this book and was so good 💗.

I already miss this world and am sad that the series is over, but I can't wait for the spinoff books! My full review is on the blog ✨

It’s been a few months since I’ve done one of It’s been a few months since I’ve done one of these posts! “You’ll Get Over It” was my most played song in recent weeks and it made me think of It Happened One Summer 📚🎶

It reminds me of how Piper is sent away from her wealthy lifestyle in LA to a small fishing town in Washington state. Her whole life as she’s known it is gone, she’s heartbroken, and has no idea what she’s doing with her life, but she comes into her own in Westport. She learns more about who she is and what she wants. She learns to be independent. And she finds love in a grumpy sea captain. Her life ends up being better than ever! 💗

3 Count by @nikkicastleromance is the third and l 3 Count by @nikkicastleromance is the third  and latest book in the Fight Game series. I’ve loved them all so far and this one is no exception! ❤️📚

3 Count follows Aiden, whom we’ve met in the previous books. He trains at the same MMA gym as the previous main characters and is a college senior. One day he meets Dani, a photojournalist also in her early 20s with an adventurous streak. After hooking up in a restricted area and running away from security, the two don’t exchange contact info but can’t stop thinking about one another. When they run into each other one day their chemistry is undeniable, but neither wants a relationship so they enter into a friends with benefits situation and you can guess how that goes! 📸🥊

I really liked the storyline and the development of their friendship and feelings for one another. I especially loved Aiden! He was just such an all around good guy 💕. 

Read this if you want a spicy sports romance and/or the friends with benefits to lovers trope! My full review is on the blog ✨

Kingdom of the Cursed by @kerrimaniscalco is the s Kingdom of the Cursed by @kerrimaniscalco is the second book in the Kingdom of the Wicked trilogy and I absolutely loved it 🖤. I loved the first book, but this one I loooooved. This fantasy romance picks up right where Kingdom of the Wicked left off. Emilia is now in the Seven Circles with Wrath after making a deal with Pride, much to Wrath's dislike. When she arrives in House Wrath, he begins training her so she can be prepared to meet his brothers and avoid them using their sins to take advantage of or control her. 📖

I loved the twists and turns as Emilia works to still unravel the mystery of her sister's murder and the curse. The tension between her and Wrath is even better in this book! 😍🥵 The details in the food, the houses, and Emilia's gowns every day was amazing. This book definitely took a jump in spice level and went from a steamy YA first book to New Adult this book and I loved it! I can't wait to finish the last book! My full review is on the blog 📚✨

Upcoming historical fiction novel The Lioness of L Upcoming historical fiction novel The Lioness of Leiden was so engaging. I didn't really know anything about the Dutch Resistance during WWII so this was very interesting to me. Robert Loewen's novel is inspired by his mother-in-law who served as a courier for the Dutch Resistance. The novel follows a few different characters, but focuses on Hetty - a young university student in Leiden, Netherlands. When the war reaches the Netherlands Hetty, like many others, want to do something to fight the Nazis. Her boyfriend, Karl, introduces her to the Resistance. After he disappears, Hetty is more determined than ever to do what she can to defeat the Nazis and the Germans occupying her country. 📖

The novel has sad parts as expected with the subject, but I was in awe of the risks Hetty and the others took to do what they could to help. Even after losing loved ones, it only fueled Hetty's motivation. The novel comes out on April 4. My full review is on the blog ✨
