Ohgabetta's Coconut Macaroons

Can I just get an amen for those beauts above? I mean, seriously, they were heaven, And yes, were, as in past tense because they lasted all of 1-1/2 days in the hizzy.

I did a simple Google search for easy Coconut Macaroon recipes. Literally, I typed in easy because ain't nobody got time for complex instructions, ya dig? Allow me to enter a screen shot of the screen shot I took for your convenience:

Ok, ok, here is the link itself just to keep things official via Food Network.

The only adjustments I made was doubling the vanilla because I plain ol'love vanilla. And I bought Betty Crocker Hershey chocolate frosting and smeared some on half the amount of 'roons with a buttah knife. Both plain and choco were equally delicious.

This is now going to be a staple party item for me to bake. And a staple item for random Tuesdays. Let's be honest. Life's short, eat dessert first, ya know? It was so so easy and an absolutely fantastic outcome. Win-win.

Let's meet again,

Self care reset

We all hear the buzzwords self care more than ever these days. Every where you turn, a lifestyle blogger, health guru, or magazine article shares insight on ways to treat yo self to some basic T.

For example, some weeks I am just done by the tine Friday hits. Hell, a rough Wednesday or Thursday has crept in there, too, requiring a pause and reflection for how best to naturally beat a funk or a “feeling of less than stellar”. Here my top self care reset ideas for your consideration: Drink water: Warm it with some lemon, try some green tea for an antioxidant boost, or just plain old room temperature is a sure way to get the boost to feeling a bit better. Face it: Fewer things feel as good as a really great face mask. I love charcoal in particular lately and always feel refreshed and restored and ready to ‘face’ another day. See w...

Reset on a Weekend

One of my favorite things in the world is laying in bed on a weekend night watching Netflix movies while my Hunter and my Ro nap next to me and I scroll Instagram home design and wellness accounts as well. This is particularly enjoyable after an extra long week, I might add. I feel calm and giddy alike throughout this downtime. I am able to relax and unwind, often taking mindfulness breaks and enjoying a komboocha or lemon water simultaneously. It couldn’t be any more basic. This recharge makes me naturally happy creating reflection and gratefulness for everything in my life. I’m a hard worker with determination and I like to reach goals and make new ones so I feel like I’m on more than I’m not. I need to reset like this because it reiterates what it’s about most at the end of the day; health, happiness, and an attitude of gratitude. What is your approach to bring it all back to center? ...
