Instagram Mantel

Crafts/DIY· Home· Mantel

Well, it’s about time that I updated my mantel. If I’m completely honest with you, I still had the decor from the 4th of July still up. Until this weekend. Until I was finally inspired to update it when I received a beautiful print from the ladies behind Well Said. You can check out this lovely “Life is” print on…

I don’t know about you, but my family is the WORST about bringing mail in and letting it land on the counter…TOTAL pet peeve of mine.

It’s taken me years, but I finally made it to @new It’s taken me years, but I finally made it to @newpennycafe in Avondale! ☕🥐

I’ve wanted to visit forever, and today I finally checked it out with my good friend @allisonwaken. I ordered the popular BLVD Burrito (so good!) and a Copper Coin Latte, and both were absolutely worth the wait.

What made this visit even more special is that pennies have always meant a lot to me. My dad was an avid coin collector, and among his coin-collecting friends, he was known as “The Penny Man.” I even have a penny tattoo on my right arm in his memory, so walking into a place called New Penny Cafe felt a little extra meaningful.

Needless to say, I loved it—and I’ll definitely be back. 🤍

While we didn’t get to screen this one early, we m While we didn’t get to screen this one early, we made sure to get into the theater today because I knew you’d all be asking…so here are our thoughts! 🕷️ No spoilers here.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day is a spectacular movie—honestly, one of the strongest superhero films in recent memory. There’s a lot happening, but it never feels overwhelming, balancing action, villains, humor, and genuine emotion with impressive clarity and pacing. Do yourself a favor and avoid the clips and discussions floating around online because there are plenty of spoilers out there; going in blind is absolutely worth the wait. Comic book fans will have so much to appreciate, but there’s more than enough here for casual moviegoers too—this is peak superhero filmmaking, and we highly recommend it!

Parents: This one is Rated PG-13 for sequences of action/violence and some language. It’s very much in line with other Marvel films in terms of intensity.

🕸️ Grab your tickets, avoid the spoilers, and experience this one on the biggest screen you can.

If you’re in Tempe and have a sweet tooth, add Bak If you’re in Tempe and have a sweet tooth, add Bake The Cookie Shoppe to your must-try list! 🍪🍦

We stopped by this past weekend to try their popular scoopable cookie—a warm, gooey cookie served in a bowl, topped with soft serve and your choice of topping.

At $17, it isn’t the cheapest dessert, but it’s HUGE. We shared one between two people, and honestly, it would be easy to split one between four after dinner. Warm, rich, gooey, and absolutely delicious.

If cookies & ice cream are your love language, this place is definitely worth a stop. Have you tried Bake Tempe yet?

A recent coffee stop took us to Milk & Honey Coffe A recent coffee stop took us to Milk & Honey Coffee, and I’m kind of wondering why it took us so long to visit—it’s right around the corner from our house! ☕🤍

This cozy, faith-based neighborhood café in Old Litchfield Park has such a welcoming atmosphere, and the coffee did not disappoint.

We tried the Caramel Sea Salt Latte, Maple Whipped Latte, and Horchata Latte—and honestly, every single one was amazing. If you’re looking for a local coffee shop with great drinks, delicious sweet and savory crêpes, and a cozy place to slow down, this is definitely one to add to your list.

Have you been to Milk & Honey Coffee yet? If so, what’s your go-to order?
