DSC03550.jpg

Some mornings it’s easiest to prepare oatmeal for breakfast, sometimes it’s easier to make toast and sometimes it’s worth it to spend a minute and make some french toast.

When I received a package of Stonefire Naan the other day, I was excited to use it to create some recipes! Today’s recipe was french toast. It was super simple to make and the Naan made the french toast so light and fluffy while still having a great chew! The egg

DSC04034

Saturday morning we woke up and I worked out on my parents elliptical.  I did a quick 30 minutes to get my body moving.  After I showered and got ready for the day, Brady and I and my dad went to look at a car we found and thought we liked.  We test drove it and were really impressed. We didn’t have much time to discuss because it was already time for my 11:30 shower.  I changed and my mom,
