It's the most wonderful time of the year! This Halloween season, I'm filling my candy basket with a healthier lifestyle. Zach's and my one year wedding anniversary (Whaaaat?!) is right around the corner, which led me to two realizations:
 

1. We fly to Florida for Unive...

I grew up in a Jewish family with members whom were raised with dinner table politeness and traditional party etiquette ingrained within them. It always seemed to me that the women inherently knew the skill of cooking like the back of their hand. Hosting full course me...

Ladies and gentleman, we're back on a health kick. My body and my wallet need it! The frequency at which the hubby and I have been eating out is costing us a pretty penny... and pretty abs. (Just kidding, I've never had abs.)

It's never too late for a reset! We've ste...

Happy Valentine’s Day! The hubby & I are dressed up and headed to a new (for us) Mexican food and cocktails joint followed by a little hotel smoochin’.
 

Do you have Galentine’s plans with friends, a date night with your partner, or a little treat yo self evening planne...

The mundane version of life that happens in Indy during the winter has got me down a bit. Plus, one of my best friends just moved to Tampa and besides missing him like crazy, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t jealous.

The easiest solution to av...

Thanksgiving 2017 waits right around the corner! After extreme wedding dieting, my appetite is geared up and ready to let me stuff my face. My mom always cooks a mean turkey, but my Turkey Day cravings lean towards the stuffing, mashed potatoes, and pie. Green bean cas...

If you haven't already gathered, I'M MARRIED! :D I'm officially Mrs. Porter! Zach and I exchanged vows on October 7th and I'm still honeymoonin' in my mind. Once the professional pictures come to us, I'll post a few from the big day & our honeymoon in Hawaii!

Zach and...

Pastries, bagels, and muffins are my ultimate breakfast foods. Problem is, none of those options are quite healthy or nutritious. My taste buds need a satisfying workaround. But, too many "healthy" substitute recipes still contain sugar or far too many complicated ingr...

Happy #Friyay! Summers are often best remembered by playlists. 90's Summer hits, Summer of Love singles, and Party Summer tracks allow us to relive those sun-kissed memories of years past.
 

But, once we hit 21 (or 18... let's be real) Summers are also defined by our fr...
