I had peppermint Jo-Jos this holiday season... They were exquisite

Happy new year everyone! I’m ready to get back on track, but my holiday (from Cmas through my sister’s wedding and NY) included: stuffed pasta shells, homemade jam, crackers, British-style roasted potatoes, peas and corn, bread, egnogg, Irish coffee, peppermint Jo-Jos, chocolate candies, McDonalds, Chik-Fil-A, homemade…

One more week until Christmas!!! I’m soooo ready. Bring on the goodies!

These are SO GOOD. The olives are delicious and the blue cheese isn’t weird; it’s nice and it on the same flavor “level” as the olive. I think they might only be seasonal in which case I will cry for a year

I made keto friendly chocolate truffles for my work potluck yesterday. They were pretty awesome. I rolled 1/2 of the in hazelnuts ❤️

I need to plan my Christmas menu... It’ll be just me and husband. I know there will be ham and pecan pie. But what else...

Picked this up last month. Honestly on it’s own, it’s not very good. It tastes nothing like pumpkin spice and just like... Pumpkin. Imagine drinking squash water. Lol BUT today I brewed it in a cup alongside a bag of English breakfast and added some cream. It’s really good! Gives the tea a nice hint of pumpkin smell and…

I made a zuchinni lasagne for the first time this last weekend. It was amazing. I think the meat and tomato sauce and piles of melted mozzarella balance out the vegetable that was in it ;) LOL

I finally got to try the rainbow and waffle and syrup Halo Tops over TG! The rainbow was AMAZING. It tastes like and has the texture of a Push-Up pop, and I LOVE push-ups beyond anything. The waffle and syrup was good too; it didn’t taste like waffle and/or syrup per se, just very sweet and maybe a bit maple-y, but I still…

Thanksgiving was awesome

Pre keto one of my favorite foods was rice, edimame, soy sauce, and avocado, and those little seaweed sprinkles/rice flavoring you can get at Asian markets. Like deconstructed sushi

Who else is so ready for it to be Thankgiving????

Oh my gosh I love it so much. Easiest "diet" I have ever done, I feel like I can stick with it for life. It also helped my chronic migraines and random stomach pains :)

I had thin oreos last night for Halloween. I was surprised at how much I liked them, being a double-stufft girl. I think the thin cookie is really nice

Well I had my fun with Taco Bell, Twix, beer, and Oreos and milk. Back on the keto wagon today! I have a major carb hangover but it was all so good. I forgot how much I love those stupid frito burritos :D

Taco Bell in T-minus 4ish hours...

Probably a good idea lol. Well once you can get where you need to be, try making it! It's not hard in the microwave and is absolutely spectacular. I've only done it once because I could bathe in sweetened condensed milk... A can probably wouldn't make it to the ducle de leche phase in most cases lol

OMG yes. Have you made it from sweetened condensed milk?

THAT WAS MY REACTION. Also is the troll gone yet?

What's everyone's fave Halloween candy? Just curious. Like if you had a trick or treat bag only filled with ONE thing, what would make you happiest?

Hahah! Nope, the tacos aren't getting shared with anyone :D

I'm so excited for Halloween... Husband and I are planning on Taco Bell, Oreos, and Twix :p

I'm making this again next week... Missisippi roast. If no one's heard of it, it includes herbs, peppercinis (spelling?), and a stick of butter. Yes one stick. Tonight I think we're going to Black Bear Diner for one of my favorite meals on earth, the cheeseburger salad. I'm excited more than I should be lol

Sure! Keep in mind that we are keto, so our foods are high fat/moderate protien/very little carbs, so it may not match up with your way of eating, but if nothing else hopefully provides some inspo: First night we had lettuce-wrapped cheeseburgers with all the fixins (tomato, mayo, mustard, the works) and homemade egg…

@Mandunc happy belated birthday!

WAIT... Someone else did PB and brown sugar as a child??? I thought I was the only one!! Every time I mention it people look at me like I'm insane!

I finally caved and agreed to try Ju Jitsu with my husband! I don't know why I didn't want to but I realized it wasn't going to hurt me to try it and see if I like it :) We found a studio and I'm going to their fundamentals class on Sat to see what I think!

Oh my LAWD you have a lot on your plate! Internet hugs! What are you in college for? I'm going back to school on 10/1 myself :)

Right?? I'm trying to not think too much about Starbucks caramel apple cider. I got some apple cinnamon tea the other day that's doing pretty well at curbing the cravings, but it's not totally the same of course

I'm going to make fathead pizza for dinner... Can't wait for the day to be over JUST for that :D
