Summer Refresher!

There are a lot of things that make me think of Summertime with drinks. Sun brewed ice tea. Lemonade. Arnold Palmer. Last year there was some kind of trend where there was a lemonade made mixed with something creamy. Which is always delicious! But since it’s been getting hotter and hotter here, I was tryingContinue reading “Summer Refresher!”

Japanese Home Cooking

I found this cookbook on Overdrive/Libby through my local Library’s online checkout system and I absolutely love it. I’m biased and have an obsession with cookbooks. I know you can find recipes online, but there’s something nice about being able to just look at the recipe and skip over the talking part. Every cooking blogContinue reading “Japanese Home Cooking”

International No Diet Day

My SO won’t be breaking his diet today, because he’s been doing so well with Keto. 20 pounds down! I’m so proud of him. I’ll probably try to make something for him today. Something that actually fits his diet. I’m not doing great on my diet, sadly. But it’s International No Diet Day! So let’sContinue reading “International No Diet Day”

Keto Cake?

This actually turned out amazing. I forgot to take a picture after I was done, but I loved it. I didn’t buy the icing, I made my own and wasn’t impressed. The keto powdered sugar was way too sweet. I think instead of using that and butter to make a keto buttercream, next time I’llContinue reading “Keto Cake?”

Chicken Salad

Typically, when I cook, I prefer to have exact amounts. But I’ve learned through the years to estimate pretty well when it comes to cooking and even baking. I.E. Making mug cakes and such. Since an exact amount isn’t always feasible. My MIL boiled two boneless and two bone-in chicken breasts. They cooked until theContinue reading “Chicken Salad”

Tea Puns Forever!

“Where there’s tea there’s hope.” — Arthur Wing Pinero This isn’t an original pun. Let’s be honest. I’ve seen some people do this with two Boba teacups. I just really thought it would be cute to have two tea bags hanging together. I’m going to keep going with these drawing puns. I’m such a tea person instead ofContinue reading “Tea Puns Forever!”

Tea Time

Just a simple little doodle today! I’m really feeling the idea of tea though. My MIL bought some Stinging Nettle tea and some Hibiscus tea so maybe I shall have one of those two. All this cold weather this week has frozen me to the core. I’ll need to fill my water bottle up withContinue reading “Tea Time”

Sippy Cups

I have an obsession with cups. We’ll just say that. Right now I don’t even know where half of my Tervis cups are. And I did lose one of my favorite owl cups and my sugar skull Tervis up to my job at a call center. I had a nervous breakdown, hyperventilated under my desk,Continue reading “Sippy Cups”

Keto Lunches

I found a decent “magazine” from the digital Libby Library. And it’s got some good staples in it for keto meals. I’ve gained a few pounds and I’m trying not to beat myself up about it. So all and all, I’m back to my pre-diet weight again. Bleck. Slapping the reset button on this dietContinue reading “Keto Lunches”

The Keto Diet Cookbook

I checked out an interesting e-book from the library on Libby. I don’t usually do e-books because I don’t really like reading on my tablet. It doesn’t feel as nice to me. I’ve become a little more inclined to at least “try” reading on the computer sometimes. And I’ve found that the things I wantContinue reading “The Keto Diet Cookbook”
