Yum Yummy!! Homemade Peach Moonshine for Drunk Girl Summer!

I usually make homemade moonshine for the winter. Usually, we're all home and we're practicing being #teamcozy for the winter. But it's been so darn hot lately (we're hitting an average of 100 degree temps) and when it's that hot, you really can't leave and do anything. Enter peach moonshine. This recipe is perfect for cookouts, or just lounging in the backyard, patio, or even in front of the steps

Overnight Oats Recipe

I recently discovered overnight oats and honestly, I wasn't a fan of the store-bought ones. I figured it might have been a little too hipster for me to try and I was okay with that. A friend suggested I make my own and I might like it better. Well, challenge accepted. After scouring Beyonce's internet for recipes, I came up with my own borrowing a little from one and

Green Goddess Grilled Cheese Sandwich!

So, I was stuck at home recently and I really didn't feel like ordering out. One, I didn't have the funds even though I probably could've made a way.

I recently bought sourdough bread, alfalfa sprouts, and avocados to make avocado toast and I figured since I had a little cheese

Slap Yo’ Mama Roasted Bell Peppers

I love bell peppers. I think they're a very versatile member of the fruit family (yes, it's a fruit, look it up!). They tend to go well with just about anything, though I haven't been that adventurous in trying to turn them into something sweet (I'm sure I could, tho). And while bell peppers can be eaten raw, sautéed, or even fried, I've grown very fond of eating them

Grilled Brussels Sprouts Recipe

I love Brussels sprouts. I don't boil them, but I love to roast them in my oven. Over the week, we had a broken oven (fixed now!), and I had a lot of delicious Brussels sprouts to use. I decided to switch it up a bit and grill them instead: Ingredients: 1 pound Brussels sprouts, as uniform in size as possible 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 teaspoon dry mustard 1 teaspoon smoked
