100 Day Creativity Challenge (Days 71-77)

I'm gonna go really fast, so hold onto your hats!

#DAY71, my family and I went to the St. Louis Botanical Gardens for their Garden Glow event. It was so fun, cold, but beautiful!



Then #DAY72 I had a girls day with my sister and mom. It was super fun, and it reminded me how much I love them!!! This is done using my dad's old Boeing notebook.... creative, I know.



#DAY73 I found a cute little heart tree on Pinterest! Maybe I'll use this for next year's Christmas card!!



Now for #DAY74 it was New Years Eve and my friend asked me to make a recycle sign for his laundry shoot that he macgyvered.



Then #DAY75 it was New Year's Day and as always, my mom made Hoppin john! Supposedly it is good luck to eat black eyed peas on January 1st. It Was So Yummy!




#Day76 was the day we drove back to Colorado. I know.... I am so creative.



And finally, #DAY77 my husband and I started Whole30 (blog to come). I had sweet potato toast with chicken avocado salad for lunch (Recipe), some tea, and we had chicken and veggie soup for dinner. Can't wait for the tiger blood to hit me.

How to Spatchcock a Turkey

Are you ready to find out the secret to an amazing Thanksgiving turkey? Is it brining? Basting? Butter under the skin? WHAT IS IT?!?! It's called spatchcocking and it is a Godsend. Note: you can also do this to chicken or any poultry (it will probably be different cooking times and whatnot) What is spatchcocking? Spatchcocking means you remove the backbone and lay your bird flat (don't worry I will do a step by step tutorial below). You do this so your legs and breasts cook at relatively the same time. With this method you want the breasts to end at about 150 degrees and the legs to end at about 165 degrees. Which is why we removed our legs in case they needed to cook longer. How to Prepare a spatchcocked turkey?  First, we bought a turkey. You buy one pound per guest. We had to get a frozen one because we bought it a week and a half early... But if you are cooking for Thanksgiving I highly recommend getting a fresh bird. There is no need to get one that is pre ...

100 Day Creativity Challenge (Days 29-35)

I know, I know... I am super behind... But I am determined to catch up! Day 29, I have been wanting to get better with my ipad and Apple pencil.... since I have one and don't want to waste my money. Anyway, this isn't my best work, and I haven't found the best pens to use... I'll get there. Plus this replay time lapse is the coolest thing ever. Here's #DAY29 On to day 30, I have finally made this a habit! Today I used my chalk markers on slate. I chose a Zombieland quote, because it makes me happy. Here it is #DAY30 Day 31. So, I want to apologize for today... My husband and I were celebrating our anniversary (early) and I took some pretty pictures and mixed my own cocktail.. I'd call that creative. I know these snippets are really short.... Anyway, Day 32 I decided to commemorate our anniversary trip at Devil's Thumb Ranch (MOST BEAUTIFUL PLACE EVER!!!) So, this is my creative project for #DAY32 Moving on to Day 33, I...

100 Day Creativity Challenge (Days 43-49)

Next up, we have Day 43, the first day of the week. I made an ADVENT BEER CALENDAR. Where we will drink a beer everyday in December. And I bought all new kinds of beers. I have only had three of them before, SO EXCITED!! This is #DAY43 On Day 44 I made a casual lunch because my husband was working from home. Chicken Caprese! So easy and it looks super fancy. #DAY44 For Day 45 we set up our tree. We live in a small apartment right now, so our tree is super small, but it always reminds me of home and how much I love Christmas. Plus we hung our stockings from this table, and it turned out super cute. Here is #DAY45 Day 46 I wanted to make a fancy dessert. I have been watching too many baking shows. Anyway, my suggestion is to never be fancy with desserts again. Just make brownies or cookies.... that's all anyone wants in life. Anyway, I made whoopie pies!!! They are great and delicious, but very rich. They have chocolate whoopie pies (not my fav, but very good) a...
