inspiring websites

12 July 2013

Don’t you love it when you stumble across websites that are both fun to read and inspiring at the same time?

This week, I came across Brit + Co. and At Home in Love. These two websites are full of ideas for lifestyle, home decor, DIYs, and everything in between. I’d come across Brit + Co. before but just didn’t have the time to explore much. So this week, I found myself clicking on link after link at Brit + Co.’s fun and colorful website – super informative and inspirational. You can even download their app for Android, iPhone, or Windows! Aileen from At Home in Love also has really great ideas that are a lovely mix of happy and whimsical. Her posts are easy to read, and she has tons of inspiring images over on her blog; I’m looking forward to perusing through the archives sometime. And having such a cute website is definitely a PLUS!

Both websites have very different vibes but are extremely inspirational + fun to read nonetheless. These new (to me) websites are definitely going to be good reads for the weekend. Then it’s time to bring some of those inspiring ideas to life!

Life is often full and busy. But I like to take time to enjoy some of my favorite things. So Friday Favorite is a weekly series where I share my favorite(s) for the week. Check out my other Friday Favorites here.

21 recipes // stromboli

Stromboli by Lauren’s latest

I had this pinned on my food board for awhile but finally got around to making it. I used my bread machine to make my own pizza dough and followed the recipe for the rest. We’ve had this twice already and it was a pretty simple recipe that everyone loved.

We definitely enjoyed this stromboli recipe.

21 recipes / first six.

20 December 2012

I’m so behind on blogging all the fun stuff I’ve been doing lately. But hopefully, I’ll get to it soon enough.

First up, here’s SIX new recipes for the 21 list. Last year, I tried 20 new recipes and loved it. So this year, I made 21 recipes a part of the 21 list again.

A couple months back, I made these sloppy joes – so easy and a total hit.

These sandwiches make a pretty good lunch, for sure.

Nutella, for the win. Always.

Nothing like these muffins to get you into fall mood – yummmyyyy.

The creaminess of chocolate and peanut butter with a sprinkling of sea salt are pretty much the perfect combination in this cookie.

I was so worried that this cheesecake would just be a flop. But it turned out to be amazing in the end – so good.

P.S. Forgive the weird white borders around the photos; not sure what happened there!
