My dad’s birthday was yesterday so, I decided that it would be an excellent idea to MAKE an ice cream cake. You know instead of making my life easy and buying a Carvel one. Since I’ve never made homemade ice cream cake before, I looked at a lot of different recipes. Like the log roll style and cake with ice cream in the middle. but they all seemed so complicated.

Everyone has been posting their decades and/or year in review on their Instagram. And honestly, not that I’m not happy for others, I 100% am, but I can’t help but feel a little shitty when I see them. It makes me question myself, my own goals, and ask, did I do enough? I don’t want to look back at the past. I want to enjoy today. The best way I feel like we can all do that is to scroll a little less and be present more. It was one of my goals from last year that I now realize…
