Happy New Year!!!


Hi everyone,

Happy New Year! I hope you all had a lovely new years eve and got to celebrate for the New year. We stayed in, baked future cookies as my husband calls it, played games with our daughter and watched movies.

One thing I enjoyed about not going out and celebrating was that I didn't feel awful the next day. haha I don't know about you, but I just can't do late nights anymore, I know the little carebear will still wake up at the same time and that means I do too. :/

For the New Year I have decided that I will be making some changes, My New Years resolutions are to be Healthy, Happy & to be the best Mother I can be to my daughter. 

I have decided that I want to incorporate exercise into my daily life. I want to eat cleaner & drink more water. I will also be making an effort to do more activities with my daughter, try to see things from her perspective and to have more patience. Last but not least, I want to try to be more positive, let go of grudges & not take everything to heart.

Have any of you made any resolutions for the new year? If so what are they? well, it's our bed time.... but I look forward to posting a new recipe or activity soon.

Future cookies, resolutions and lots of hugs,

Scarlett's Mommy!

Whole 30 Challenge: Turkey Veggie Burgers & Butternut Squash Fries

Hi again! I have been a little M.I.A since the new year. I apologize, but I am back again and I wanted to share with you my newest thing. I stumbled across the Whole30 Challenge, and after reading about it and it's benefits, I decided I wanted to take part in this challenge too. So, Today was my first day, it's been good so far but I can see there will be some difficult days ahead as far as cravings go. For my first day I started out with Eggs, bacon & an apple for breakfast. for lunch I was a getting hungry and needed something quick so, I had a rolled egg omelet & a delicious salad packed with lots of yummy things and I just sprinkled it with some salt, pepper & lemon. For dinner I made more of an effort, I had turkey veggie patties, butternut squash baked fries & some salad vegetables on the side. If you would like the recipe for my Turkey veggie Burgers just follow the steps below. 1 lb Ground Turkey 1 small onion or half a regular sized onion chop
