Memories Per Mile: A Comeback & A New Chapter

Hey, everyone! It’s been a while since my last post, and I wanted to take a moment to reconnect, share what’s been going on, and give you a glimpse into the exciting new content coming your way.

Like so many of you, life has been hectic, unpredictable, and full of change. Over the past few months, our pace of travel has slowed down, and while that’s been an adjustment, it has also given me time to reflect on what’s next for Memories Per Mile.


Life Lately: A Shift in Pace

For years, travel has been at the heart of this blog—sharing stories from the road, travel tips, and unforgettable experiences. But lately, our suitcases have stayed put more than usual. Whether due to personal commitments, shifting priorities, or simply the need to pause and recharge, we’ve found ourselves embracing a slower, more grounded lifestyle.

At first, I struggled with what this meant for Memories Per Mile. Would I still have stories to tell without a constant stream of new destinations? The answer is a resounding yes!

Because while the miles may have slowed, the memories and experiences haven’t stopped.


A Fresh Approach to Content

This shift has given me the opportunity to explore new directions for the blog. While travel will always be a core part of Memories Per Mile, I want to expand into deeper storytelling, reflection, and lifestyle content that captures the essence of adventure—whether that’s through past journeys, travel-inspired experiences at home, or finding new ways to fuel our wanderlust when we can’t be on the road.

What’s Coming Next?

Here’s a sneak peek at some of the content I’m working on:
Throwback Travel Stories – Revisiting some of our most memorable trips with fresh reflections and tips.
How to Bring Travel Home – Ways to stay inspired by travel, even when you’re not on the move.
Life Between the Trips – How we’re embracing slower living while still staying adventurous.
Travel Planning & Dreaming – Looking ahead to future adventures and helping you do the same!

This new chapter of Memories Per Mile is about adaptation, inspiration, and storytelling—whether from the road or from home.


Let’s Reconnect!

I’ve missed this community, and I’d love to hear from you! How has your life changed lately? Are you traveling less, shifting priorities, or finding new ways to stay inspired?

Drop a comment below or connect with me on social media—I can’t wait to catch up and embark on this next journey together.

Stay tuned, stay inspired, and remember—every mile, near or far, holds a memory worth sharing.

See you in the next post! 💙

How to create the most delicious Peanut Butter Cookies

If you’ve never made peanut butter cookies you’re missing out!

I had a few extra minutes to create these while my middle child and husband went to the ER for a possible broken finger (luckily it was only sprained). I surprised her with the cookies when she got home.

I have made these cookies since I as a little girl. They are delicious and super easy to make. Just follow the directions below!

Turn your oven onto 350°F (177°C) degrees.

Gather these Ingredients:

1 egg

1 cup sugar

1 cup peanut butter

1 Package of mini chocolate chips (optional)

Now, mix all the ingredients together. Once mixed grab small portions and roll them into balls.

**If you want something extra roll the balls in some sugar before placing on your cookie sheet.**

After rolling the balls (in the sugar if you went that route) place them on the cookie sheets about an inch apart. Now use a fork and create a crisscross (+) at the top.

It is the time to bake your cookies! Be cautious not to bake them too long of they’ll come out burnt. Place them in oven between 9-13 minutes depending on your oven temperature (mine heats up super fast; these were out in 10 mins).

Let them sit for about 2-3 minutes before eating anything!! You can store your cookies at room temperature. Enjoy!

*please note I used 2 cups of each ingredient and made 4 dozen cookies. **please use your own discretion when creating and eating these. Calories: ~224 calories per cookie
