Apple Cider Pancakes with Apple Butter & Toasted Almonds

Hello, friend.

So, October is almost over. It's practically Halloween. It’s officially the countdown to the holiday season. I’m not emotionally ready for that yet. Are you? Luckily, I have some recipe ideas and holiday inspired posts in mind, so stay tuned for that. Speaking of holidays, homecoming is this weekend and I’m beyond excited. It’s one of my first weekends I have off from work. I haven’t had the chance to make a home football game this year, so I am excited to take some time and actually be a social college student. Tailgating here we come! 

Grilled-Roasted Peaches with Autumn Spiced Butter & Maple Crème + The Fear of Speaking

Hello, friends.

So it’s been a while since we last chatted. It feels like years since we sat down, sipped on osome pumpkin spice lattes, and caught each other up on what our lives have become. What is my excuse? Higher education. I recently survived midterm week and I couldn't be more excited that it's over with. The weight of textbooks and grownup responsibility pulls my tired body downward. I find it harder and harder to get up in the morning and out the door before my 8 am microbiology class. In the midst of late night study sessions and early morning practicals, I rather sleep my worries away than take another step out into the chilly cornfield jungle that is the Midwest. If I'm being honest with you, I’ve just been in an emotional lump.
