Customizable Layered Brownie Parfait Recipe

If there’s any dessert I love creating, it’s one that is completely customizable. Not only does it guarantee that everyone is happy, but they also ensure that no one is going hungry. There’s nothing worse than making a carrot cake only to find out that a guest can’t have nuts, or a decadent caramel pie when someone is anti caramel!

Your guests will be out of luck if they’re anti brownies, but thankfully, that seems to be an infrequent dislike and a brownie parfait recipe is a hit 9 times out of 10!

Gwen has been such a trooper throughout this huge house renovation.

Oh, the good ole days of sharing one carry-on suitcase between the two of us. Those travel days are loonnnggg gone!

Our luggage triples whenever Gwen is added to the itinerary. We previously discussed our tips for traveling with a baby. Trust us. We never regret taking Gwen along! It really isn’t so painful if you also have the right travel gear.

Be warned. You will need a lot, BUT thankfully, most of these items can be checked-in for free!

Have any of you all experienced the “Oh crap, I’m actually an adult and can’t keep sliding by” moment in one way or another? Or is that just me? Haha! Honestly, it really didn’t hit me until getting pregnant with Gwen that I should probably know things like what my insurance actually covers, if we were overpaying for it, and making sure we had an actual savings plan in place.

Howdy from Austin aka the Live Music Capital of the World! We kicked off SXSW last night speaking at The Refinery with Packed Party and some of my favorite blogger ladies, which is especially fitting since it’s International Women’s Day today!

A Perfectly Pastel Easter Table Idea

Well guys, I’ve been sitting on this one for a while now! We actually styled this perfectly pastel Easter table idea last Summer for a video shoot we did for Olay, but by the time I got around to writing the blog post, it was well into Fall so I waited until to bring it back around!

You’d think this might make me the type of person that buys gifts way in advance for people until just the right moment,
