how i edit my iphone photos for instagram
i get asked about how i take my instagram photos probably more than anything else, and i promised a post on this months ago — so i figured it was finally time! we’re all our own worst critics, but i don’t see my own feed or photos and think it’s anything to write home about, so it feels a little strange to write this post honestly. but here goes!

mini fish and chips
you may remember the mini chicken and waffles i made, well this is the new shit! i’m realizing now i’m really into mini versions of foods as appetizers because it makes me feel very cher in mermaids (my mom and i were so obsessed with that movie when i was a kid that we turned our guest room into an underwater room just like them).

happy weekend
yay friday! we’re doing a house project and going downtown for some fun stuff so it’s not all chores and errands this weekend. last night was the first night we let rocky sleep with us (we’ve been keeping her in the guest room at night so we don’t have to worry about them fighting), and she slept next to me from midnight – 6am!!! omgggg it was so cute. OH and speaking of cats, we saw keanu last week, if you are considering seeing it go ahead and do that because i loved it so much. Read More

printable minimal recipe cards
even though i don’t write down recipes as often as i’d like to — i love writing them down. whether it’s a recipe of my moms or one that i’ve made after clipping from a magazine, it used to be my way of distinguishing it from the hundreds of recipes i’ve clipped or pinned. so i thought i’d make some recipe cards to inspire me to start it back up again.

built in cabinet facelift
for some reason the owner before us had installed this big built in cabinet right in the entryway of the house. we initially planned on just tearing it out, but decided we needed the storage and we were too afraid of what the floor looked like underneath. it was this gigantic 9′ eye sore that is basically the first thing you see when you walk into the house — so i had to figure out a way to live with it.

i’m introducing a brand new monthly column today! my friend amy started doing a monthly highlights post and i loved the idea so i’m copying it. it’ll be a good way for me to inject some personal updates as well as for me to personally reflect. can you believe how fast april flew by?!

happy weekend
if you follow me on snapchat, you may have seen the 72 videos of our NEW CAT. last week when my dad was in town for his birthday, we walked into an adoption center which we probably shouldn’t have done, because i met a little girl i fell head over heels for — and well a few days later we got her home with us! she’s half ragdoll half persian long hair and she’s 6 pounds and she’s so freaking sweet. we’re in love. she belonged to a hoarder who was caught with 120 cats and they all got adopted out but she was kept as evidence until a month ago! i’m so happy we found her. and btw gid is so cute, he said yes to adopting her just based on a photo i sent him.
