Hey y’all! For someone who LOVES the sunshine and has struggled with acne, I have to adhere to a skin regimen to correct and protect my skin. Our skin is just like any organ in our body and we must take good care of it to prevent scarring, wrinkles and skin cancer. One of my weapons in my skin care regimen: topical retinoids!
Riviera Maya, Mexico
Hey beach babes!! Despite living in Texas for a total of eight years, I had never vacationed to Mexico. I was invited for a quick stay in Riviera Maya and it was quite the treat! (Cue margarita glasses!)
Cookie Dough Cupcakes
Way back in the day when I was in Physician Assistant school, I would occasionally bring homemade baked goods to share with the medical staff during my rotations. It was my way of thanking others for their help. Emergency medicine rotation received brownies, family medicine received sugar cookies, etc… The longer I did this the more I realized it was not just a “thank you” but also a better way for this quiet P.A. student to get to know the staff better. The day I baked these cookie dough cupcakes was the day I met everyone! They are sweet, rich, and incorporate a fan favorite – cookie dough.

Valentine’s Day Guide: 2017
Hello friends! Whether you celebrate tomorrow as Valentines, Galentines or Anti-Valentine’s Day, it is always a lovely day to have fun and spread love. I delight in a little debauchery with chocolate and wine, but invite other new traditions and sweet treats to join. Since Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, I have a last minute guide with ideas for outfits, gifts and food.

DIY Washi Drink Stirrers
This weekend has been glorious. Saturday in Dallas we tied a record high of 88 degrees! The parks were filled and sunbathers flocked to the pool – in mid February! Today is slightly cooler but the sun has still graced us with temperatures in the upper 60’s. Being from Missouri, that’s considered margarita weather. (…not that we need a specific weather to drink margaritas…) To celebrate the sunshine and kick off Valentine’s week, I’m doing a super easy DIY by making Washi Drink Stirrers. They are multi-purpose Drink Stirrers/Drink Decorators/Drink Markers/I’ll take a drink now, thank you.
