Trust me, when I first started meal prepping (if you include grocery shopping, prepping, and cleaning up,) I spent almost all day to have things ready. I didn't mind it at first, but now, my goal is to spend as little time...

If any of you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen that I shared a “story” from my date night at the B&N book store.

The cookbooks always seem to follow the trend of the most...
For most of my life I hated exercise. These negative feelings originated all the way back to my middle school years. I believed I was completely doomed when it came to sports or anything active; Which resulted in me never trying out for or participating in any sports, and a lack of motivation to even try. Fast forward a few years when I started to try to exercise in high school and college. I did what I thought was best and went to the gym where I spent hours on the elliptical, treadmill, or...
