Strawberry Milk WITH Strawberry Cream
Are your children just like mine? My kids go through so much milk – gallons! But they aren’t particularly fond of plain milk. They do love strawberry, chocolate etc… Many adults are the same way – let’s make our milk more interesting right? Additionally, everyone loves whip cream and we make our own cream all the time. Now they can add strawberry cream on to their strawberry milk. Easy peasy. Best of all they can make it themselves. This really is quite easy. Simply mix 1/4 tablespoon of 1/4 cup heavy cream and blend! You can blend quickly with an immersion blender or even mix by hand (though be prepared,…

Delicious Chocolate Chip Cookies
My daughter and I love to cook – especially bake. But between work, school, blogging, karate and horses to care for – we never seem to have the time to slow down and cook. Like many of you COVID has changed your life at least for the moment. We are now doing school from home, working from home and even karate from home. The only thing we cannot do from home is care for our horses since we board them. I am actually very thankful for that because it allows a safe space for me to take the kids where we don’t really need to worry about catching something from…

Quick and Easy Vegan Meals
I have recently started following a vegan way of living. Everyone has their own reasons for the change and in my case, it is completely about my health and wellness. I am totally against any form of animal abuse but that isn’t why I am changing. You won’t find me on a corner waving a flag that you are a horrible person for wanting steak. I will leave that to the PETA folks. I have never been a fan of meat so it is no big deal to walk away from it. My parents used to go crazy because I didn’t like meat – well now I am the cool…

The Best Chicken Noodle Soup – Crockpot Set it and Go!
If there is one thing Winter reminds me of is chicken noodle soup. This year has been a tough year with illness in our house. We have had one cold after another – feels like we get better for two weeks then something starts making its way through the house again. I seriously can’t wait for this winter to be over. Thankfully no one has gotten the flu yet (yes I am knocking on wood). Someday when everything will be normal again, I would like to visit My nephew in Newyork. That city is filled with amazing Nyc steakhouses and the choice is almost limitless. There are classic steakhouses that are…

Copycat Starbucks Pink Drink – Keto Friendly
I don’t have too many options for what I like to drink. I am very picky and I really have no idea why. The list is quite short – water, a few flavors of Crystal Light, Diet Coke (only from McDonalds), diet orange soda from anywhere, and several drinks from Starbucks. In rare instances if I can find a diet grape soda – yum! I totally love the Coca Cola Freestyle machines so I can get the diet orange and diet grape! But, my favorite Starbucks drink is their Keto Friendly Pink Drink – Passion Tea Drink. This stuff is awesome and perfect of course for a low carb, keto…

You Can Have Your Pancakes and Your Keto Too! #Keto #LowCarb
One of the things I have been missing most on our Keto journey is breakfast other than eggs. I love eggs – or did… But they have been a main staple for several weeks and well, the novelty is wearing off. Funny thing is when I wasn’t on Keto I really didn’t care for things like pancakes too much. But now – I really wanted something different. Additionally, our son has been expressing an interest in trying more Keto friendly meals and as soon as I started cooking these this morning, he jumped out of bed! He made it clear that next time I need to make a much…

Keto Crack Chicken – Crockpot Fun
This post contains affiliate links I am always looking to try a new recipe that is Keto Friendly. I want our family to follow a low carb way of eating as much as possible and to do so – I need to keep them interested. Much of my cooking is done on the weekend and I always try to make enough for our family of five as well as enough to freeze for later in the week. So this weekend we are trying Keto Crack Chicken and I can tell you it was a huge hit. I followed (basically) the recipe from Mess for Less with some minor variations. What could…

Keto Friendly Chocolate Chip Cookies – Comfort Food Fun #Keto #KetoFriendly #LowCarb
This post contains affiliate links Following a Keto diet is awesome but sometimes you just want a treat – even a traditional comfort food type of treat like chocolate chip cookies! So I have tried several different versions and each iteration got closer and closer. This set is really good. I am more than happy to try some other versions but now I know I have a winner! I always recommend using a stand mixer for making cookies – who really wants to put all that elbow grease into each batch. We all have enough things to work hard on – this doesn’t need to be one of them.…
