This past weekend my friend Ashley and I made homemade poptarts. We really had no idea what to expect but they actually turned out to be delicious. It is an easy treat to make for a Friday night that only took about 15 minutes! 

Ingredients: poptart

• 1 whole pre-made pie crusts (they normally can be purchased in a two pack) 
• 1/2 cup of jam (any flavor; in our picture we did raspberry) 
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon butter

Ingredients: icing

• 1/2 cup powdered sugar 
• 1 tablespoon heavy cream 
• 1 tablespoon of jam

Steps: 

1. Preheat the oven to 400ºF
2. Lay the pie crust out on a cutting board and cut the pie into long strips.
3. Mix together the jam and cornstarch
4. Put the mixture on the slices of crust
5. Coat the edges with butter
6. Crimp the edges together so no jam gets out
7. Place poptarts in the oven for about 15 minutes 
8. While the poptarts are in the oven, mix the powdered sugar, heavy cream and jam together that is used for the icing
9. Once the poptarts are done, spread the icing gently on top and enjoy with a scoop of ice cream! 

Happy Fall! 

So excited that fall is here! Although the weather is changing and starting to get more chilly, this is the best time of year to go on adventures! This past week I went to Millstone Creek Orchards and picked apples. At the farm they sold apple cider and homemade donuts which were just amazing. They also had a section of the store set up where you could sample the different types of apples (some of them I have never heard of before!) My favorite was by far the Arkansas Black. I also visited an antique store that was so ascetically pleasing! It is called Salvage Sisters, located down the road from Elon. It was a gold mind for things to put in your dorm or apartment. Below are just some pictures from the day! 

This past weekend I went to downtown Greensboro, NC. It is such a little cute town. I visited 

Bohoblu, Shop Design Archives, and  Only Just Be. They were full of cute clothes and girly trinkets. The pictures below were taken on South Elms Street. 

Bermuda 2017: A couple of weeks ago I went out on a cruise with my mom. Yes, just the two of us!  It was my first time out of the country which was really exciting. Being able to relax by the pool and eat a ton of food was just great and when we got to the island we did everything from boating to snorkeling to kayaking. Here are some pictures that sum up the amazing trip we had together !
