It's 4:30pm and it's my birthday, you guys. So basically I'm on cloud nine and feeling all the birthday love from so many people in my life. I'm so thankful for every single one of you, near and far. Seriously, it's making me feel so loved.

And just like that it's January 5th. Insert all the New Years resolutions. You know the drill - finding a treadmill at the gym is some sort of personal hell, the Instagram QOTDs are filled with uplifting motivational messages, and you can't help but judge your friend for trying "Dry January" and failing...on day 4. Guilty?

K hi. It's been awhile, everyone. With this cold and damp weather hitting the Carolinas, it's not a big surprise that pretty much everyone I've talked to has been in a little post-Daylight Savings Day (pitch black at 5:30pm isn't working for me, ok) slump.

So this whole idea that I'd be writing a lot on here has definitely not panned out the way I imagined. You guys, it's mid-September. Where did summer go? I think the last time I wrote a blog was back in June. Ugh. Let's just say you all have missed quite a bit. Let me recap.

Summer is in full swing and naturally the rosé is flowing. Let's be real, you can always count on me to bring some wine. Cue: Porch Pounder. Yes, it's wine in a can and I absolutely love it. Think it's weird, think again. This stuff is amazing.

{ In my dreams, I'd be drinking wine on this balcony..err..a Hurricane. }
I'm back. Alive. My phone is in tact (despite a few inevitable case chips - I am a spaz, ok?), my wallet is full of its contents, and I didn't even manage to lose my favorite Smashbox lipstick. Success? I think yes.

Whoa. You guys, I'm back. It's been awhile, I know...and you know what? I don't have any kind of excuse to feed you. Life has been crazy. In all the best ways, of course. Where do I even begin?

{ Because silly fridge messages are my favorite, but I absolutely love this Maren Morris song + these lyrics. A little fridge motivation to kick start the week is always a good thing. Oh and these DIY gold magnets will be on the blog next week! }
We've made it to Friday, you guys! This deserves some sort of celebratory cheers in my book. As I jam out to my favorite Friday song (trust me, it's a must listen and is sure to put you in a good mood)...

Sup, 26. It's official, I'm a year older. It wasn't necessarily the best start to a birthday, but hey things happen. Onward and upward as they would say, right?

You guys, on Monday I turn 26. Insert: where the hell did the time go? But really, I can't believe in less than a week I'll be a part of the 'late 20s' crowd.

Since it's the new year and 'new year, new me' seems to be saturating Facebook and Instagram captions, I figured it was only fitting to actually incorporate a healthy recipe into my weekly dinner menu.

Well hello there 2017. Wow. Cue: all the 'this year has flown by' comments, which are totally true - it has.

Whoa. I've been bad with writing, you guys. Sorry in advance, seriously. I was on a little bit of a roll in November, and well, the pre-Thanksgiving jitters hit and I neglected you all. Guilty. Now that it's December...

This week has been difficult. I'm not here to throw a pity party for myself because well, everyone has these weeks. From being sick most of the week to feeling homesick, I've just felt off.

Wow. This week. Where do we even begin? Sometimes it's better to just let it all sink in without feeling the need to react. I'll be honest with you all.
