Last day on the midday with these two! Officially off work to rest and nest before our little Biscuit arrives.

Today, I can’t help but reminisce. This time two years ago I left the hospital (as an outpatient dietitian) to say “yes” to a completely-out-of-my-comfort-zone opportunity. As I reflect, I’m reminded of how that opportunity was God-ordained.

I had been ready for something new- a place where I could learn and grow. I definitely have done a lot of that with KTBS! I’m excited to keep learning and growing as I add another role to the mix- Mom. 🥲

Today is my last day of work before maternity leave starts, and I’m in my feels 🥲 My coworkers are like family! Sadly, I don’t have everyone’s reaction, but I’m so happy I have some reactions on tape to remember. This has truly been the most special season! 🫶🏼

Funny story- my coworkers, Madelyn and Caroline, knew before my husband even knew because I took a test at work, and I got Madelyn to confirm that she saw a line. 😆😆 THEN I full on panicked because I forgot the test in a room where everyone would see it. And, of course, I had already left work for the day, so I had to get my friend Caroline to dispose of it for me. 😂😂😂 when I told Paul the great news later that night (6 tests later to confirm), I said, “I’m so sorry but you’re not the first to know” LOL! One of my favorite days ever.

I remember telling my friend, Johnette, pretty early on because I had had an emotional day. She asked me what was wrong, and I word vomited, “I’m pregnant” 😭😂 and she immediately said, “I’m throwing you a shower!” 🥲♥️ and it was the best shower surrounded by my work and Shreveport friends!

I can’t believe this season is coming to an end. Savoring it all before our lil Biscuit is done baking! 10 days or less 🥲♥️

Anchored my last show with my friend—who’s like a bro—double A, last night and it was pretty bittersweet. 🥲

We’ve been the main two anchors for the 3/4 PM shows the last year and a half, and it’s been the best! We have the best team and it never feels like work. I’m gonna miss being at the desk the next couple months.

I’m not officially signing off just yet- I’ll anchor my last show Monday, Jan. 5th with Nate Fluharty for the midday newscast and solo for 3/4. I’ll be taking a couple days off before my maternity leave begins. ♥️

Holiday meals don’t have to feel chaotic, and they definitely don’t have to derail your routine.
This visual is one of my favorite tools for enjoying all your holiday favorites while still feeling good afterward.

A balanced plate helps:
✔ stabilize blood sugar
✔ keep energy steady
✔ prevent that heavy, stuffed feeling
✔ and still make room for FUN foods

Save this guide for your holiday table, and stay tuned for a full breakdown of each section. I’ll show you how to build a plate that’s colorful, satisfying, and absolutely includes dessert! 😋

My first ever little mini bakery pop up 🥲🥲🥲 Thanks for always letting me share your space to bring hand crafted goodies to the area. I’m now taking orders for cinnamon rolls (VERY limited supply this year to save my back since I’m quite literally almost 9 months pregnant LOL 😂)

This Christmas I have-
🎄 Christmas cinnamon rolls by the half dozen with buttercream icing
🎄 Chocolate chip cookies
🎄 Santa’s cookie mix (take home and bake)
🎄 Dehydrated sourdough starter Christmas gift kits

I’ll have all these items at the next pop up on Dec 21st (cinnamon rolls pre-order only).

Everything left over from today will be sold at during their regular store hours Mon-Sat!

CHRISTMAS POP-UP TOMORROW (Sun. Nov. 30) with ! I’ll be selling my cinnamon rolls in limited supply by the half dozen (they’re fluffier and fatter this year - see my story highlight 😋) I’ll also be taking sticky bun pre-orders for the week leading up to Christmas.

I’ll also have some fun edible gift sets- chocolate chip cookies, cookie mixes for Santa (so fun for the kiddos to help make as a family), and dehydrated sourdough starter kits!

Let me know if you plan on stopping by- I’d love to see you! 🎄😁

Building a lighter Thanksgiving plate doesn’t have to mean skipping your favorites.
Here are 3 swaps that cut the heaviness — not the flavor:
🥔 Greek Yogurt Mashed Potatoes
• bone broth for richness
• Greek yogurt for creaminess + protein
🫛 Parmesan Green Beans
• sautéed onions → caramelized sweetness
• pine nuts → healthy fats + crunch
🍫 Dark Chocolate Holiday Bark
• antioxidant boost
• easy portion-friendly dessert
Save this if you want a holiday plate that feels good and tastes amazing.
