The two of us at Perfect Little Planet love being able to take a vacation and love even more when we get a little break on the $$$ (who doesn't?). One of the ways we do this is by using credit card points! We wanted to create this post to share with you our favorite...
Did you ever wish your house had secret tunnels in it? Growing up, our family had a coat closet upstairs that I would hide in and I so wished it had a secret tunnel that would bring me to my room. It would've been such a fun twist to hide and seek! Those dreams...
Cookies are one of my all-time favorite desserts. Chewy, frosted, chip'd, dip'd, crunchy, cakey, small or large. I will eat them ALL. And Brian and I practically did when we ate 13 (baker's dozen!) different cookies around NYC—you can watch the video of the whole...
Italy is one of our favorite destinations and one of our favorite things to do in Italy is to hop off trains on stopovers in the smaller cities. Parma has been one of my absolute favorite stopovers. Not only is it a food-centric city (parmesan cheese or Parma ham...
Angkor Wat is one of those places that is on everybody's bucket list—or if it's not currently, get it on there now! 😉 This isn't your average visit to an old, 12th century city. Angkor is filled with 72—yep, 72—wats (temples) both pieced back together and in...

The first time I went to Arizona I was 6 years old. I remember being at the airport and stepping through the sliding doors and immediately the heat and dry air took my breath away. This Alaskan was NOT used to this weather. On that vacation, one of the top stops was...
Starting about two years ago, exactly like clockwork, I would turn on Food Network at the start of my working-from-home 1pm lunch hour (I like lunching late) because The Pioneer Woman was on. Ree uses so much butter and sugar, how can her recipes not be enticing!...
I’m gonna be honest here: I’m not a huge pie person. Wait! Don’t go! I like pie just fine, but it’s highly unusual that it’s my first choice for dessert. But when it comes to cream pies—coconut, French silk, peanut butter, KEY LIME—I am 110% into pie. So, when Brian...
