About Julie

My name is Julie and I am a full-time blogger, new mama, fitness enthusiast (certified personal trainer and group exercise instructor) and food fanatic (mostly healthy... but also not-so-healthy) living in North Carolina with my husband, dog and baby boy. Thank you for visiting Peanut Butter Fingers! I hope you enjoy little glimpses into my life and have fun trying the sweaty workouts I frequently share and making some of my favorite recipes along the way!

Good morning, good morning! I’m sitting down at my computer this morning with a million and one different blog post ideas flowing through my brain but we’ll have to settle at one.

Hi friends! Friday is here but this one feels a little different as we’re saying goodbye to my parents and my sister and her family — a big ol’ gang we’ve been loving having under our roof over the past week. I’ve fully unplugged which felt wonderful and while I feel immensely behind on life…

We arrived home from the Azores late Sunday night (recap coming soon!) so it felt like the first half of our week was spent unpacking, adjusting to jetlag and finding our summertime groove. We don’t have many camps booked for the boys this year…

But that’s where this trip begins (in a very roundabout way) so that’s where we’re starting! An Unexpected 2 Days in Lisbon,…

Yes Day: What is is, how we planned it and what we did

Have you guys heard of a “Yes Day” for kids? A Yes Day is a day when parents/grownups agree to say “yes” to any kid requests (within reason, of course). Our kids naturally thought this concept was the coolest — our oldest requested a Yes Day a while back after a friend came to school…

Fishwife smoked salmon | Things I

Aaand just like that, our family’s chapter on the preschool days has come to a close. I need to take a minute to type out the swirling mess of emotions I’m experiencing relating to Rhett’s preschool graduation and our family’s conclusion of the preschool days but it’s a LOT and it’s one of those moments…
