The Adventures of Julie and Bella 2025

Happy Super Bowl Sunday and, more importantly, Crockpot Sunday! Today’s menu featured Salsa Chicken, a ridiculously easy yet flavor-packed dish that hit the spot after a long, stressful weekend. Nothing beats a hearty, delicious meal that practically cooks itself! 😋 If you’re looking for a simple, crowd-pleasing recipe, you need to try this—trust me! Recipe link below 👇

A Cozy Sunday with Bella

Today was exactly what I needed—a day to unwind! Bella and I spent most of it snuggled up on the couch while I got lost in my latest read. 📖 I’m officially on book #6 for the year (not bad, right?). And the best part? I found this gem at Dollar Tree! You never know what treasures you’ll stumble upon there.

This afternoon, we had a special tradition—watching the Puppy Bowl! 🐶🏈 Bella actually enjoyed it this year! In the past, all that chaotic running would send her into a barking frenzy, but today, she cozied up and watched right along with me. Maybe she’s maturing… but let’s not dwell on that. My baby girl is still my little pup at heart!

Super Bowl Thoughts… or Lack Thereof

As for the actual Super Bowl? Meh. I’ll check in on the score here and there (gotta see how my numbers are doing), but let’s be real—I’m still salty. My Bills should be playing tonight, not the Cheats (Chiefs). So, consider this my unofficial boycott.

Instead, I’ll be wrapping up this Sunday the best way possible—relaxing, enjoying some TV, and spending quality time with Bella. Here’s to good food, good books, and mostly good football!
