Introduction

 Hey Y'all!

My name is Tara and I created this blog as a way for me to have some sort of outlet for all of the things I have going on in my head - there's a lot! I plan on writing about a lot of things going on in my life (random thoughts/rants I need to get out into the world, family, friends, etc.). I also plan on sharing a lot of recipes because I LOVE to cook and bake! I have also recently started reading a ton of books now that I have more time on my hands (more about this later!), so I want to share my thoughts on various books that I finish reading - a mini book club if you will! This will be a kind of hodgepodge of things happening on my blog, but it's just a sneak peek into my brain and what goes on in it. My goal is to write a new post every Thursday, but I may post more often if I have a lot on my mind or less if I have a busy week. 

Here's a little bit about me:

I currently live in Chicago, IL where I am a graduate assistant athletic trainer. I am currently working towards getting my Master of Arts in Education and I will be graduating in December! I am originally from Dearborn Heights, MI which means I am a HUGE fan of Detroit sports teams - especially the Red Wings and Tigers! I am an alumna of Michigan State University where I graduated in 2017 with my B.S. in Athletic Training - GO GREEN!
When I am not working as an athletic trainer or sitting in class, I enjoy working out, cooking/baking, eating, reading, watching TV/movies, snuggling with my kitty, and chatting with my family and friends. 

I hope you enjoy getting to know me and getting a little insight on what the heck goes on inside this head of mine!

~ Tara💜

So I Jumped On The Bandwagon...

...and I have no shame whatsoever. I finally gave in to all the hype and watched "To All The Boys I've Loved Before" on Netflix and TBH, it was SO worth it!! I usually don't give in to the hype on popular shows/movies on Netflix for various reasons, but after rave reviews from friends and family, and being unable to escape the hype on social media (looking at you Buzzfeed... every other article I scrolled past in the last week has been about/related to TATBILB), I caved and watched it. And I have no ragrets. Seriously, not a single one.  For those who have not watched this gem of a film, I'll give you a brief description without spoilers, because I am a decent human being like that. Personally, I thought it was the ultimate modern day mashup of "Can't Buy Me Love", "10 Things I Hate About You", "Sixteen Candles", and a couple of other John Hughes and classic rom-coms. This girl Lara Jean has written very open, honest, and h...

Fall Show Preview

The 2018 Network TV Season Is Upon Us!!! I am SO excited that America's favorite TV shows are back along with some promising new shows premiering. I wanted to take the liberty to let y'all know the shows I usually watch and which new ones I am going to try to get into this year and a bit of preview on what happened the first week. I'll try not to give out too many spoilers, but I can't promise anything! First up on my list of shows I'm watching this fall is The Resident on Fox. Basically, Logan from Gilmore Girls plays a smoking hot medical resident with a major badass attitude at a reputable hospital in Atlanta, GA. I watched it last season mainly because I knew one of my favorite actresses from CSI:NY had signed on as a main cast member and I had to see what that was all about. Long story short, it was actually a pretty good first season and I'm excited to see what the new season brings. As I write this, I have just watched the first two episodes of sea...

Feeling Thankful

I have a lot to be thankful for. These last couple of weeks have been a little rough for me. Between being overwhelmed at work and school and trying to be a good daughter, sister, and friend, I kind of lost my sanity for a minute. I over worked myself to the point where I got sick last weekend and I'm still trying to fight off the last of whatever bug I managed to catch. This time of year is usually pretty stressful, but I just feel like it's worse this year. Coping with the sale of my childhood home has been harder than I thought; it's brought up a lot of residual grief for my dad. I've been missing him more than usual lately. I feel like I am losing the balance I had between work, school, family and friends; work and school have kind of taken over and I haven't had much time for myself. I haven't read part of my new book in weeks. I haven't been able to sit down and watch more than 1 episode of something on Netflix of Hulu without feeling guilty for not...
