                      Hi, I'm Alyssa,
Welcome to my blog, I am so happy you're here! 

I am a married Mama of  two toddlers. Violet is two, and Madison just turned one. My husband Chris and I have been together for twelve years, married for five.  I work as a Registered Nurse in an elementary school but had the opportunity to take a year off after my second daughter was born. I am slowly learning how to navigate working life with two busy girls. I love sharing mom life, yummy recipes, home decor and products that make life easier. I hope you find this platform motivational, uplifting and helpful!

I am a huge believer in experiences over material objects. Prior to starting our family, my Husband and I made traveling a priority! We've explored Italy, France, England, Hawaii, various cities around the US and many islands. It's was so much fun jet-setting around the world with my best friend and we can't wait to share these experiences with our children one day!






One of my greatest passions in life is cooking! Maybe you can blame it on my Italian roots, but it has truly become an outlet for me, both mentally and creatively. My "happy place" is in the kitchen with my little sous chefs! I love sharing recipes, meal prep tips, lunch ideas & some of my favorite "secret" ingredients!








I hope you find this space helpful, encouraging and motivational! I'm looking forward to getting to know you through the comments, so please don't be shy!



XOXO,  Alyssa
