  • One of my favorite finds in Italy had nothing to do with pizza or pasta. It was these dang chocolate muffins. My goodness. And no, it wasn’t stuffed, I carefully inspected and that chocolate was already in there. It is the best chocolate anything I’ve ever had and I cannot figure out the secret! Italian love is real, ladies, and it comes in the form of a muffin, not a man. although I did have a handsome man sitting next to me... 😜🤤😍 #happyfriday
  • I mean, I want both, but if I had to pick....

  • Many, many years ago this was the picture that started it all. No, not a no pants movement. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Black pants, friends, I promise I was in black pants. This was the picture that turned our whole lives into something new. 
I had just had our second baby who was a devil baby, really though. Cade was unemployed and life was not as we had planned. Why does that seem to be the story on repeat? As soon as we had decided to have another baby, and only a week or two after finding out I was expecting the business Cade was working for unexpectedly closed its doors and we were now jobless and without insurance, and fresh out of college we didn’t really have savings. It couldn’t have been worse timing. On top of that our car kept breaking down and thousands later we still couldn’t figure out why. 
One day, almost two years into unemployment Cade said, “could this blog be an sweet for us?”
Now we’ve been blogging almost 11 years, before anyone knew blogging would be a thing, and how in the world does someone totally broke become a success?! We didn’t have money for a fancy site like others, certainly not a fancy camera (you can’t tell but it’s a super old one from high school) and we were surviving off of food storage (hello freeze dried everything). But I felt it, Cade felt it, this blog was supposed to be something. So we poured all of our blood, sweat and tears into, oh sweet basil, and it all started with something I did totally unrelated to food and photos. 
Our “success” story comes from a place of wounds, but isn’t that how it often goes?
