4th of July Festivities
It’s weird when the 4th of July lands on a Tuesday. Your whole week is all wonky. You lose track of time. You wonder what day it is when you wake up. Do I have to work today? Who knows?
Other than being completely out of it, Adam and I had a great time these past four days. I always enjoy when he gets time off work and we get to be together 24/7. Not sure if he feels the same way, but he’s stuck with me so he’ll get over it!

If I called it the Roasted Green Monster Potato Salad, would you be more inclined to make the recipe?
These are the important questions I ask myself as I name my recipes. You’re welcome.

What I Ate Wednesday: Camping Edition
I haven’t done a What I Ate Wednesday post in a few months and I thought it would be fun to share a day of camp eats with you! A lot of people (myself included a few years ago) think that camp food revolves around a few main staples. Grilled meat, big pots of chili, sandwiches, and s’mores. Sure, those are all easy and great camping meals, but you can cook SO much more outdoors. Plus, everything tastes just a little better when it’s kissed by a smoky campfire.
