- There is a Fini Pizza in Utah City and it’s good. Definitely worth checking out.
- A good polo and nice pair of shorts.
- I have to get surgery on my elbow on Tuesday. I have two completely torn tendons. I am not excited, but it needs to be done.
- We are still living the baseball dream, baseball pretty much every day.

- On the blog this week, a simple appetizer, a quick and easy lunch, and the best cookie I’ve ever made!
- My dad help us do a lot of yard work. We planted a lot of flowers and our garden. I am excited to watch everything grow!
- Which chef are you?
- The best sweater for layering in spring and summer. I also just got this in yellow, love it!
- I want this pizza!
- My dad hosted a little lunch for his friends at my house yesterday and he let me do the food. It was so fun! I think I need to host lunch clubs!
- I have this cardigan, it’s so soft (would be cute with white jeans for summer). I am also loving this top and this tank.
- This easy dinner has been very popular this week. And speaking of easy dinners, here are 25 easy weeknight dinners for you to survive busy May!
- I only sleep with silk pillowcases. They are great for your hair and skin.
- 15 perennial flowers to plant for gorgeous spring blooms.
- I love this color of blue and I like this dress in both colors!
- 50 Costco favorites. I always love seeing what people buy! A few of my staples: organic peanut butter, plain Greek yogurt, frozen berries, and I used to buy the Jackson’s sweet potato chips, but they haven’t had them the last couple of times. SAD!
- Josh’s birthday is on Saturday! We have lots of baseball, but we will find time to celebrate. I will probably make him his favorite dessert!
Happy Birthday, Josh! Good Luck with your elbow surgery. Can’t wait to see the garden grow and all the lovely flowers.
Thanks so much!
Good luck with the surgery and happy birthday when it arrives!!
Thank you!
Happy Bless Birthday Josh!!! Praying for healing from your surgery. Enjoy your day In Jesus Name Amen
Thank you!
Hi, happy Mother’s Day and keep those great recipes coming. They’re really helping me a lot because now I’m a care partner now and I’m pretty busy but I still read your column every single day when I get a chance or a couple of days thank you so very much.
