When life gives you lemons...make pound cake!
I feel like all we do lately is baking/cooking but I am so excited to be putting illustrating AND publishing a cookbook I could explode! I haven’t said much about it but I have been behind the scenes almost daily creating and testing out healthy recipes that anyone can follow!
As most of you know, I am on a total journey into health, both physical and mental. Which meant changes to my diet, mental and physical!
You see, what we feed ourselves is SO important and if I’ve learned ANYTHING its that weight loss happens in the kitchen whereas ABS happen in the gym.
We have mental diets as well though:
- Who we associate with.
- What we read.
- What we watch.
- Who we keep in our circles.
- The music we listen to.
And SO MUCH MORE! I never used to understand that concept. What does any of the above things have to do with health?! Well they ALL effect us mentally and that can effect us physically too!
With all of that being said, I took on an additional journey to make food both delicious, nutritious and FUN again!
If there is one thing I don’t like it’s feeling restricted when it comes to food! I’m just like anyone else! I love comfort foods, sweets and just good food in general so I made it my mission to create recipes that hit all of those marks! Things you could eat and not have to feel completely guilty about!
If you’re someone like me who has struggled with their weight their entire life, knowing how to eat and what to eat doesn’t come as easily to you!
Which is why I want to create a book that helps people understand the complex and beautiful ways that you can make food work for you!
Today I tested a Lemon Pound Cake recipe and let me tell you, it DID NOT disappoint!
I’m not doing to drop the recipe just yet but I am thrilled with the way it turned out! The texture and taste was excellent!
Here are some glamour shots of my creation!
Anywho, I appreciate you all, as always! I hope you have blessed and productive weeks ahead!
XOXO
