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!

The boys are back in school and while this came along with a whirlwind of emotions, there are undeniably some upsides for me from a work perspective. School days = Work days for me which opens up more time for blogging and the resurrection past blog series that have fallen to the wayside. Hooray!! I’m…
