Your quarantine nickname is your current mood + the last thing you ate.

So please call me hungover cinnamon rolls 😆🤷🏼‍♀️

What’s yours?

Speaking of cinnamon rolls – You guys were VERY into the cinnamon roll recipe that I shared on stories yesterday morning. And since we don’t do anything very exciting on the weekends anymore, this seemed a little more fitting than the typical weekend notes.

{dalgona coffee // whipped coffee}

Happy Monday friends! Hope you all had a wild weekend…ha! Just kidding.

Since not much happens on the weekends these days, weekend notes doesn’t have a place anymore.

We tie-dyed sweatshirts + made whipped coffee. Which you guys seem to be VERY into. So, I thought I’d share the recipe for the whipped coffee. It you’re a Tik Tok’er, then you’ve seen it a million times. That shit has going viral.

Basically the “it” drink at the moment.

If you want to see what all the hype is about, then you’ve got to try it out!

{bay bakes // chocolate chip cookie bars}

March 26, 2020 xoxostacybLeave a comment

Sweet. Salty. Chocolaty. Shall I keep going?

If you’re working on your quarantine bod too, I got a good one for you. Really, Bay has a good one for you!

In the last week or so there is one thing I’ve become very good at, taste testing! Ha! And these bars get my stamp of delicious approval.

Is it possible that baking cookies into the form of bars actually makes them taste better? I think Bay might be on to something here!

{the best board games}

March 16, 2020 xoxostacybLeave a comment

Hi friends. Shit is just so weird right now. Still going through all the emotions. Stressed. Sad. Pissed off – that I can’t easily get the basics. Not trying to hoard, just need some necessities. Scared of the un-fucking-known. Happy to have more slow time.

Lets all remember to spread kindness. The world needs that shit right now!

Intentions for the Week:

Create a new habit – they say it take 2 weeks, and I’ve got that!
Stay healthy
Find fun ways to move my body without going to the gym
Take Charlie for lots of walks
Keep a positive mind
KonMari my closet
Master at-home mani + pedi’s
Come up with a tequila + emergen-C cocktail
Only purchase what we actually need
Work on my skincare

And since I think we all have extra slow time, I rounded up THE best board games. I read the reviews. Did some homework. Gathered a great selection of games all available on Amazon, so you don’t need to leave the house.

February 11, 2020 xoxostacybLeave a comment

In case you haven’t heard – snack boards are all the rage right now. And for good reason! They are so fun for kids and grown ups, VERY easy to throw together and allow you to offer something for everyone to snack on.

I really try to focus on healthy-ish recipes, but the Holiday Whore in me just can’t help it this time of year.

Bay Bakes. It’s be a while, but my favorite (not-so) little baker is back. You see, Bay’s now a teenager. So, sometimes she’s all about the blog, like right now. And other times, not so much. Ha! When she’s willing to bake, I take her up on it!

She made the cutest + yummiest Christmas Light Cookies. They are so fun and festive.

I included the sweetest Letter To Santa free printable at the end of this blog post. Although we no longer host our Letters To Santa night, Bay will 100% be forced to write a letter anyway!

{weekend notes}

July 22, 2019July 22, 2019 xoxostacybLeave a comment

After being gone the last few weekends, I was looking forward to a weekend at home. As Bay used to call weekends “stay at home days!” It was really, really nice to do NOTHING! Like, nothing at all. We slept in. Drank lots of coffee in PJ’s. Sat by the pool both Saturday and Sunday. Had some really good dinners. And straight up kicked it.

After lots of resting over the last couple of days, I woke up this morning ready to kick Monday’s ass….kinda. Ha! Got my steps. Working on my water in-take as I type. Have a great day friends!

Needless to say, today’s post is going to be short + sweet!

Intentions for the Week:

Date night to see Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
Closet Clean out + blog post all about it
Loose 1 1/2 lbs at Weight Watchers weigh-in (I’ve got money riding on it)
Create a new centerpiece. Maybe using a fern?
Track everything: steps + food + water
Stock-up on Leaves candles (so sad the Davis Bath & Body closed)

This week on xoxostacyb: sharing a zero weight watchers point taco Tuesday recipe. Bay Baked Reese’s S’more dip and it was divine. Hoping to get that recipe up too. I did a closet clean-out. Still have more to do….so we’ll chat about that at some point too. And last but not least – Trader Joe’s. We tried a bunch of new products, so we’ll be spillin the tea on what we think!

Highlights from the weekend……..
