Few things scream "comfort food" quite like a big bowl of gnocchi. Add some mushrooms, thyme, and goat cheese, and your bowl of comfort food just got all fancied up! The word may be a little difficult to say (nyo-key), but these little potato dumplings will have you begging for more. Baxter called me while on the road home from Louisiana and said he was craving gnocchi. I haven't made a gnocchi dish in forever, so I was excited to come up with something delicious to welcome him home! I have made them from scratch before, totally doable, but I didn't want to be in the kitchen all night so I opted for the store-bought version. I served the gnocchi alongside seared steaks and a glass of Caberne
Y'all, I am obsessed with this sweater! After seeing so many people wearing cute pieces from SheIn, I finally tried it out. I was super nervous after seeing those posts going around on Facebook about people ordering from cheap clothing websites and the items coming in completely different from what they ordered. This sweater was one of the pieces I got and it was $14! I also got this pair of shoes, and a couple of tops (this one and this one). Overall, the quality was pretty cheap, but for the price I was fine with it. The pieces did kind of smell a little when they came in. They went straight to the wash! One bit of advice when ordering on sites like this, read the reviews! I had a bunch mo
Happy almost-Friday! The weather here in Tulsa has been CRAZY! I am pretty sure we have experienced all four seasons each week for the past month. I wore this adorable top last weekend when it was sunny and 85. No joke. In the middle of February. The warm weather made for a perfect day of shopping downtown followed by lunch at one of my favorite pizza places in Tulsa, STG Pizzeria. I cannot get enough of the off-the-shoulder tops right now. This top (only $32) combined my obsession with stripes and the off-the-shoulder trend, so it was love at first site. I also really like this one, this one, and this one. I have to force myself to buy clothes that cover the shoulders so that I can have som
Name Anciano Varietal Tempranillo Region Valdepenas Country Spain Year 2005 Price $12.99 I don't think I have reviewed a Spanish wine yet, and I am honestly not sure why. They are so good! My favorite part about drinking wine is how it can take you right to the place that it was made. You can taste the soil, the climate, and the food that it is typically paired with. It is like traveling the world with each sip. Whenever we travel, we always bring back bottles of wine for us to drink when we are missing the places we have been. Spain is one place that has not been checked off my bucket list (yet!), but judging by the wine, I think I would fall in love. Spanish Tempranillo are packed with fla
Is my love for Valentine's Day obvious yet? One of my favorite things to do each year is make a special Valentine's breakfast! I could spend hours on Pinterest going through holiday themed foods. Do you know how many foods can easily be made into a heart? It is amazing! In the mornings, I am usually still half asleep while trying to make breakfast, so I always look for easy recipes. When I want to be fancy, but don't want to slave away in the kitchen all day, I always turn to the one and only puff pastry. It makes every dish delicious! I always keep some in the freezer just in case I need to whip something up that will be ready-to-impress. These heart tarts turned out so cute, were so simple
My favorite holiday is fast approaching and I am SO EXCITED! I am a sucker for all things pink, hearts, flowers, chocolates, and cheesy romantic...so it is no surprise that Valentine's day is one of my favorite days of the year! I am not a big fan of the fancy dinner at an overbooked restaurant (I blame this on working in the restaurant industry for so long). Instead, I am all about heart-shaped pancakes, thoughtful homemade cards, and overusing the word "love". It isn't just Baxter that becomes victim to my cheesiness! I could never leave out my favorite Galentines! My favorite Galentine present was a massive order of take-out cheese fries delivered to my work from my favorite cheese fry pl
