Getting my groove back!




    There is literally nothing more that I love than a good pattern! I absolutely LOVED creating this piece! I literally love all things food! And since my health journey started I've been even more interested in food! Where it comes from, where it grows, who grows it, what flavor combinations I can do! Minimalistic ingredients and everything in between! I eat way more than salads, but I do find myself loving them A LOT more! 

    There are so many salad combinations and additions that are healthy and so freakin' delicious! I love trying new things! That used to be the complete opposite! I hated trying things that looked different, healthy or green! I am so different now! My pallet isn't that of a toddler anymore and I am thrilled! 

    I used to eat and order the same foods over and over again! It got boring but going outside my comfort zone was enough to send me into an anxiety attack before! I'm so thankful for the mental clarity that I have now! It's amazing how much effect your diet can have on your brain! 

    Add in some self confidence, mindfulness and a whole lot of therapy and I am a whole grown adult now! With feelings, an opinion and a LOUD, audible voice! 

    I am not sure how my picture about food ended up about me and my new outlook on life, but nonetheless, I am glad that it did!


Happy Saturday, Loves! 


XOXO

Cookie Era!

  Listen, I’m in my cookie era! Here’s what I did! I made a double batch, scooped them and placed them on parchment paper to keep them separated. Placed them in freezer bags and then froze the second batch. That way I have chemical free cookies ready to take out of the freezer whenever I want and bake fresh! This way I can bake 2 if I want instead of making up a whole batch.

Adult Money...

Image
Having access to adult money is ridiculous sometimes! Gets notification: “Your TV will be delivered Saturday!” Gets another notification: “Your remaining packages will be being delivered several a day until Christmas” Like okay, Siri! Thanks for reminding me of my inability to stick to the budget I created each week! I go over it by an offensive amount each week! I should know by now that I can't even follow my own rules.  If you're good at this kind of stuff, I applaud you!  XOXO  Also, thanks for selling me out, SIRI- you bitch!

What would you tell your former self if you had the chance?

So yesterday was all about confessions and today I am going to talk about what I wish I knew back then that I know now.   I have always thought the world was out to get me. If not the world, the people in my world. I haven ’t always had the easiest time and I have had some hard shit happen in my life; but who hasn’t?    Here’s a list of some of the things I've dealt with: 1.  Being an overweight child 2.  Having undiagnosed anxiety 3.  Being bullied 4.  Having literally no self confidence  5.  Being completely introverted   And h ere are the things I wish I could have said to myself back then :   Bullies:    It’s hard to even describe what it’s like to be bullied. Unless you’ve been there you just don’t know. My parents always made sure I had nice, name brand clothes and that I had anything I ever needed. But it didn’t matter, people couldn’t get over my size long enough to see that I had a good personality. And eventually...
