post may contain affiliate links Having risalamande or Danish rice pudding every Christmas was one of my favorite memories. I loved the taste of it and, as a kid, finding the almond before the rest of my family was probably the most competition I could handle. The funny part about it was that my cousins did not like it. I vividly remember my cousins trying to choke and gag it down and then they would still get the whole almond and get the prize. I would get so mad! YOU DIDN'T EVEN LIKE IT! When we were kids, the...
Trying to find gifts for somebody that has recently made a lifestyle change can be really difficult. You don't want to give them something they won't use or is not right for their way of eating. But you also don't want to offend them with getting a diet related product that could hurt their feelings. There are so many fun options that you can give somebody that is on keto. There are fun and sassy shirts and there are products that can make life a lot easier. Be mindful when searching though that you are not inadvertently signing your friend...
I have seen a lot of keto jalapeño popper chicken roaming around Pinterest. This recipe stemmed from that, but I made some changes because I am not actually a fan of jalapeño poppers to begin with. Too much cream cheese in one bite for my liking. This is more like a casserole where the cream cheese jalapeño mixture is all mixed up with the chicken and ooooooh is it yummy. So creamy and rich with just a hint of spice. Most of the recipes I see the mixture is placed on the top of a whole chicken breast. I am not amazing at...
Being keto for over a year, I have learned many things. Mainly as I learn new things, the products that I purchase change and grow. A lot of times, when starting out, you want to try products that replace what you can no longer eat. Sugar free candy, low carb tortillas. Stuff that is still pretty readily available in any grocery store. Also when you start out, you tend to buy pretty much anything that somebody mentions or posts about. You want to try new things and that usually ends with buying things that are not so tasty. You...

Doing keto for over a year, you think I would learn to not just buy everything that people post that is low carb. I end up with all these items that either take way too much work to end up using or I don't have the rest of ingredients to use the item in a recipe. This happened when I purchased coconut cream and coconut milk in a can from Trader Joe's. I kept reading of all these delicious desserts I could make by whipping it up into a mousse, but ain't nobody got time for that! Then I bought...
I was given the opportunity to review a product from LaBella Flora Children's Boutique that I would not normally review. Super girly clothing for little girls. Don't get me wrong, my daughter LOVES to wear dresses. Like every single day she wears a dress. But they are cheap and she gets them dirty every day. She is my dirtball princess. When I see all of those gorgeous dresses in stores, I know she would destroy them or she would not wear them. When I was contacted by LaBella Flora Children's Boutique to review their new fall releases, I was...
Keto mistakes are inevitable even for somebody that researches for months before starting. I would like to think that I am pretty proficient in all things keto at this point. I have been eating a keto lifestyle for over a year now and lost 45 pounds. 6 months of that year has been in a maintenance phase of keto rather than actively trying to lose weight. I think one of the main questions to ask before starting is keto, is why? Why are you wanting to do keto as your way of eating? I have been having digestive issues ever...
If you are new to keto, you might not have discovered yet that the loss of having a crunchy snack can cause sleepless nights and tears in the corner. Or so I have heard... These keto crackers will definitely satisfy that need for crunch and keep you full at the same time all while keeping that digestive system cranking all day! My mom has been dabbling in the keto ocean lately and since she has celiac, she inherently is already making gluten free items. She is an amazing baker and she was working on a recipe for some crunchy seed...
Not a sponsored post I have an almost 4 year old, a senior dog, and will be getting a new puppy next weekend. Let's just say the idea of grocery shopping no longer feels like something that I look forward to. I used to look forward to grocery shopping as my time by myself. Now I have to race through the grocery store and thanks to my horrible short term memory, I forget lots of items. Nobody should be sweating by the time they are done grocery shopping from racing down the aisles. Nobody! When we get our new puppy,...
