    New Zealand: Our Kiwimoon North Island Adventures

    November 18, 2018bestwithchocolate@gmail.com

    Hey guys, we’re back from New Zealand and I just want to share with you every minute of our honeymoon adventure!  I want to make sure I jot this down while the memories are still fresh because it was such an amazing trip.  We were there for two and a half weeks, so I’m breaking this into two parts, the north island and the south island!  Here’s the north island scoop: Day 1: Travel.  After the wedding we were exhausted, but at least we played that “honeymoon” card, and got bumped up to Economy plus on the first leg of our…

    the best and worst of whole30;

    June 5, 2018bestwithchocolate@gmail.com

    I’m FREE!  Which is not the appropriate way to think about Whole30, haha.  It’s supposed to be more a lifestyle change and you’re not supposed to binge on all the things you couldn’t have.  But guess what, that’s exactly what I did.  And I won’t lie, I don’t really regret it. For all of you starting Whole30, or in the thick of things, or even just wondering what it’s like, here’s my comprehensive list of food do’s and don’t’s for Whole30 from my first go-around. Favorite breakfast: breakfast nests; This got me through quite a few weekends.  Having a hearty…

    These little pillow puffs are deeelicious!  But they do take a long time!  For those of you who have ever tried to make gnocchi before, I’ll bet you already know this.  But somehow I always manage to forget, especially because the ingredient list is so minimal, I think they’re a breeze to make!  But when you boil them in multiple batches, and run out of space on your cutting board to continue rolling and cutting them up, it gets a little tedious and you remember just how long they take to make. So these bad boys will take you close to an…

    So I know I promised you my review on Mediterranean Cellars in my post last week about quattro goomba winery, but I’ve elected to postpone that post in favor of a shout out to the place in Baltimore that we had dinner for J’s bachelorette party!  I figured that was a little more timely, and besides, I wanted to dish on some of the details of the weekend.  So keep an eye out for that Mediterranean Cellars post, I promise it’s coming! I’ve known J for what’s going on 6 years–wow can you imagine?  We met through our sorority in college, but at Bucknell…
