This might be my most requested post ever. After I talked about having my eyebrow microblading done, everyone wanted to see how they were “aging” and I was constantly asked about updates.

In case you haven’t seen my original post on my Microblading Review with Blonde Hair, you can check it out here. I had my eyebrows done about 1.5 years ago now so it has been a…
How I Made the Switch to Black Coffee
I didn’t start drinking coffee until my last year in college.

With the hot days of summer, and becoming a new mom, some days I need a cool afternoon treat with a side of caffeine. And an Affogato is the perfect (and easy!) solution! If you have never had an Affogato before, it is an Italian treat that means “drowned” where essentially you are drowning ice cream with coffee.
