Summer hasn't gone quite the way I imagined, but that's okay. Between graduate school, appointments, and everyday life, I've been a little quieter than usual, but I'm looking forward to making the most of the rest of summer with a few local adventures. I shared a little life update on the blog, I'd love for you to read it!

When summer break began on June 15, I had all these grand ideas of what I was going to accomplish. I pictured spending my days exploring small towns around Maryland, relaxing at the beach, discover…

Today marks 250 years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776, a milestone often called America’s semiquincentennial. It’s a day to reflect on freedom, history, and the ongoing…

One year ago today….

One year ago yesterday, the kids and I arrived in Maryland with a lot of hope, a little uncertainty, and a whole new chapter ahead of us. It’s hard to believe an entire year has already flown by. They say time flies when you’re having fun and apparently when you’re busy building a new life, too! I originally posted this video six months ago, and somehow we’ve already reached the one-year mark. Along the way, we’ve made memories, found new favorite places, and grown in ways I never imagined. My heart is full of gratitude for this journey and all the blessings this past year has brought. Here’s to one year in Maryland and many more adventures still to come. - M

Just me, my tiny garage greenhouse, and a bunch of seeds plotting their summer takeover here in Elkton. Spoiler alert: I may be outnumbered, but I’ve got grow lights and determination on my side.

Getting a head start on summer by starting my seedlings in my little garage greenhouse here in Elkton. It’s amazing how something as small as a seed can turn into a full garden with a little patien…

Brunch with my boys at Eggspectation was mostly a win! The gluten-free French toast and Eggs Benedict were delicious, the atmosphere was fun, and the service was great. Honest review though? The gluten-free pancakes didn’t hit the mark — so next time we’ll skip those and try something new. Overall: 3 stars ⭐️ Because even when every dish isn’t perfect, mornings around the table with my boys always are. 💛

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️☆☆ (3 out of 5) A little over a month ago, I had one of those simple but sweet mornings, brunch with my boys at Eggspectation. If you know me, you know I’m always on the lookout for g…

2,700 miles apart and somehow making the exact same Beef Wellington felt like a quiet wink from the universe, reminding me how connected family can be no matter the distance. A gluten-free redemption dinner, a happy table, and one unforgettable Christmas meal.

Christmas was already in motion when the universe decided to have a little fun with me. I was in my kitchen making Beef Wellington when I called my brother to wish him a Merry Christmas. Mid-conver…

We ordered burgers and cheesesteaks and I truly appreciated the gluten-free buns, gluten-free hoagie rolls, and dedicated fryer, this is a great option for anyone eating gluten-free. The fries and tater tots were the standout for me, perfectly cooked with seasoning that really delivered, and the portions were generous enough that we all took leftovers home.

While the sandwiches weren’t a standout for me personally, they were solid and filling, and I would absolutely go back just for their app menu because of their fries and tots.

Stopped by P.S. & Company in Philly after a recommendation and tried their cinnamon rolls—absolutely fire. 🔥 This renowned organic, vegan, and gluten-free bakery delivers big on flavor, and the owner’s warmth made the experience even better. Some treats are worth the drive, especially when they turn into a cozy weekend surprise at home.

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5) While in Philadelphia, I stopped by P.S. & Co. after a recommendation from Felim (), specifically to try their cinnamon rolls. Since I was already in the city that…

Today was a full day of exploring NYC — 2.5 hours there and 2.5 hours back, but worth every mile. We jumped on and off the buses, wandered through Times Square, stood in awe at the Empire State Building, and felt the stillness at the World Trade Center Pools before walking the WTC Mall. A long day, but filled with memories I’ll hold close since this was my first time to NYC with my kids.

The kids and I took a 2.5-hour drive into New York City for our first visit together. Even though the round-trip was five hours total, every minute was worth it. My kids had been to NYC once before…

each day in Ocean City, Maryland followed by a Gluten Free feast at Seacrets. The food did not disappoint at all. And of course, I had to grab a tee shirt on the way out!!
