Bites of My Life

/
Crossing my finger's all these April showers bring May flowers. It rained almost everyday last week and it is forecasted to do the same this week. I love some good spring showers, but it's getting a little repetitive. So many good bites happened last week like trying new recipes, having mom in town for my last Mom's weekend, and Take a Bite turning 2!
It's been such a great last two years and I don't feel like I say thank you to y'all enough! TAB wouldn't be a thing if you didn't read it. Thank you for the encouraging comments, making my recipes, reading my posts and ignoring my grammar mistakes! Let's hope we can keep taking bites together for years to come!
-Fancied up yogurt.
-Cauliflower Crust Pizza with pesto, tomatoes, red onion, mozzarella and truffle oil. Make this recipe!
-Birthday toast because TAB turned 2 last week!
-Lentil tabouli-just simply lentils, parsley, red onion, tomatoes, olive oil, lemon juice, and s&p!
-Yoga in the park with my favorite yoga instructor!
-Bringing back my easy recipe for foil packet tilapia.
-Friday frito chili pie-cause it's the weekend!
-Loaded avocado toast with tahini, avo, onion and tomatoes.
-Pre-party cheese board.
-Best last Mom's weekend with Les!
-Sunday smoothie bowl, recipe coming this week!
-Shower numero dos for sister bride!

Take A Bite is two years old today! It was two years ago I decided to put all worries away and put dreams ahead to start my little baby. I cringe when I look back at some of my first posts. The layout, the topics, the pictures; sometimes I don't know what I was thinking. That being said I'm still so proud of those beginning posts for they were the foundation of what TAB is today.

Blog birthdays are fun, I feel like it's my own birthday! I'm celebrating this morning the same way I did last year with Birthday Toast for breakfast! It's a twist on Australian's Fairy Bread. Here Molly makes it three different ways. My favorite is Ezekiel bread, almond butter and sprinkles!

Make yourself a piece of piece of birthday toast and take a look back at Take A Bite with me...

My very  first post: yikes! Unsized pictures, Pinterest quotes (I hate quotes), it's just kind of all over the place.

TAB's birthday last year, look at what my heading used to be! Oh man I was so proud of that.

If only I could have a birthday party for TAB like this....maybe next year!

I was just a sweet innocent sophomore in college when I started TAB. I was so nervous what people would think of me and what I put on the internet. I've had some people poke fun here and there, but I've also had a lot of encouragement. There have been times where I'm totally obsessed with blogging then other times where I want to close it down. I'm so proud of this little site and what it's become. It's been a conversation starter, it's gotten me jobs, and it's given me opportunities I wouldn't have otherwise. Take A Bite is just a toddler, but here's to hopefully many years more!
