Happy Monday, friends! How was the weekend?

Mine was INSANE in the best possible way. I’m running on fumes, so I apologize in advance if this post goes a little…wacky.

I thought it would be fun to do a little recap of the How Sweet Eats Brunchshop that happened this weekend because it was seriously one of the coolest things I’ve ever done. My life isn’t all that interesting outside of work, so when I actually have plans on the weekend, you better believe that I’m psyched to tell you about it!Read More

I’ve found myself with a little downtime (hallelujah), so I’ve been putting quite a bit of blood, sweat, and tears into the blog.

So I did some thinking about what I could focus on during this time off, and I really think you’re going to like the outcome of this feverish pondering…Read More

Happy Monday, friends!

You can tell that I’m on the sushi train. I hadn’t had sushi for a reeeeeally long time, so when Mark and I decided to make our way to a sushi restaurant by us a couple of weeks ago for dinner, I was beyond thrilled. Since it was a Sunday, they were running a special: all sushi was $1.50 – $3.50 per roll.

Needless to say, we were stoked. Saving some money on an otherwise pretty dang expensive dinner date? The best.

So, of course, we went all-out. Mark and I ended up two different rolls each so we could take some home for later. Because, let’s be serious, late night sushi is never a bad idea.Read More

Sweet Potato Pancakes with Peanut Butter Maple Syrup

Pancakes! I’ve made you pancakes!

I’m actually kinda shocked this is the first pancake recipe on the blog. I always loved pancake day growing up. We used a mix, there were always chocolate chips involved, and I always got too bored with the flipping thing to actually carry through with the whole pancake-making process.

So that’s why these are small batch pancakes! Small batches = less flipping = perfect for short attention spanned me!Read More

Vegan No Churn Chocolate Coconut Ice Cream & Hot/Cold Date Night In!

I thought I was safe making ice cream because Pittsburgh has had some uncharacteristically warm weather these past few weeks.

However as I’m writing this, the last of the snow is melting off of the roof.

Ooooh well. Ice cream tastes just as good in cold weather as it does in warm, right?!

Happy Monday, friends! It’s a beautiful day, isn’t it?!

It’s beautiful because it is April. And I’m super excited about this month because it’s the month of Mark’s and my 1 year anniversary! A lot has happened this year: we moved in together, we got a kitten, we ate copious amounts of Mexican food. But even after a year, some of my favorite nights with Mark are our Date Nights In. We’ll cook an awesome meal, get the wine flowin’, and create a cute little picnic in our apartment by the windows.

We’re naturally introverted and the let’s stay inside in our comfy clothes so we don’t have to talk to anyone type, so these Date Nights In are seriously perfect. And getting to spend them with my guy doesn’t hurt either. ?Read More
