Over the past 4 years, Ashley and I have transitioned away from frequently visiting the local coffee houses and started making our own coffee. From espresso to cold brew we have pretty much figured out all of our favorite drinks. When I posted a photo of my homemade Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew on my personal insta I had so many friends asking for the recipe so I decided to share here. I took a few recipes that I found on Pinterest and created my own. What you need: Heavy ... VIEW POST
Starbucks Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew Copycat Recipe
Ash’s Copycat Starbucks Coconut Milk Mocha Macchiato Recipe
While in Hawaii, I figured out that I love coconut milk in my coffee, which is odd only because I've always disliked coconut. What I've discovered through the years is that I actually only dislike shredded coconut. Coconut flavor and smell themselves are both amazing! I've even been using coconut lotion from Victoria's Secret post-Hawaii. Yum! There were 2 Starbucks on property at the Hilton Hawaiian Village on Waikiki Beach, where we stayed last month. Thanks to my students from last year, I ... VIEW POST
At-Home Cold Brew, Flowers, and the Amazon Item You Need
This post is going to be a little all over the place because that's where I am right now...lol! It's summer and I am finally checking off all of those items left unchecked for so long! As I sit here writing this, I am bundled up in a cozy sweatshirt. I am a bit sunburned from the past two days, anxiously awaiting it to turn to tan! Aruba aloe gel and lotion are great for assisting with that. I bought them while in Aruba, but you can order them online here. We worked outside all day and I finally ... VIEW POST
Make Specialty Coffee Easily with These 2 Amazon Items (Under $25)
So, Erin really hooked me up for my birthday this year. I have been so super jealous of the amazing speciality coffees she's been whipping up with her Ninja! But I love my Keurig 2.0 that I bought about a year ago-- and truth be told, if I add another coffee bar item to our counte, my husband just might kill me. So, Erin got me an amazing milk frother and a pitcher for it! When the school district I teach for had an unexpected 2-hour delay and major snow accumulation this morning, I opened up ... VIEW POST
Erin’s (Very Popular) Crock Pot Pumpkin Spiced Latte Recipe
Recently, I played hostess to about 20 people for Halloween; that had me worrying about what to serve when it came to food and drinks. I know that a fan favorite among my group are Pumpkin Spice Lattes, but the last thing I wanted to do was continually serve all of our guests and not have a moment to actually enjoy the party. I went to my favorite resource, Pinterest; I came across some really great recipes but a lot of the comments didn't make me feel comfortable enough to try them. ... VIEW POST
How to Make the Perfect PSL from Home
The older I get, the more I am starting to fall in love with fall. Of course, I love summer; I get summers off and I get to travel all summer long-- can't complain about that. What I'm finding is that time must go on and summer must end, so why not make the most of it and love exactly where you're at? Fall is such a beautiful time of the year and I just love cuddling up in a soft cozy sweater with my favorite leggings. I also love boots and PSLs. Let's be honest, more than any of that, I LOVE ...
