100 Day Creativity Challenge (Days 92-100)

Okay, So I have a couple extra days in this post, but it's the last post!!!!! 100 DAYS!!!!! I am the coolest!

Leading off with #DAY92 with my all time favorite motivational quote! It's seriously amazing, and online it has an extra part, but I didn't think that was appropriate for social media....

For #DAY93 I was sitting around knowing I wanted to do some block letters, but couldn't think of anything to write. Then my hubbers walked in the door and here it is. It was a quick doodle, but he really liked it. So, it's a keeper.

Now #DAY94 I made this amazing WHOLE30 approved gumbo with cauliflower rice!!!! It was so amazing, very spicy, but will eat again after the diet..... probably with real rice, but that's okay. PS, don't you just love my parsley garnish??? So artsy. Hahahaha! Recipe here

And this is #DAY95. I only have 5 days left.... this is insane. I'm sure all my family and friends are happy it's almost over... Anyway, I posted my yummy lunch and dinner. What I love about Whole 30 is you can make everything so easily and similar ingredients from the day before, but it is a completely new dish. Here is my arugula salad with roasted green peppers and chicken with dump ranch (That I totally messed up and made more of an italian dressing.... always use light olive oil...). Then sweet potato fries on the side. And for dinner I had a kielbasa, pepper, and potato hash. So much yum!

Then there is #DAY96. I know, I know. I posted a lot of food back to back and it's all not that cool, but I am proud of myself and feel I am being creative, but I understand. Anyway, I made my own pesto. I know, I'm a hippy. Zucchini noodle pesto with chicken and sundried tomatoes. My husband was drooling.

This is #DAY97. Remember when I talked about feeling passion behind a quote? So this brought me back my passion. It's amazing. I literally looked up quotes and laughed at my screen in my apartment alone for 20 minutes. 20 MINUTES!! I didn't have a stopwatch but roughly 20 MINUTES! I thought it was so funny and cute, and I decided I needed a new kitchen chalk sign. (I still had a Christmas one up..... Judgment, I know). This was perfect. I showed it to my husband and he chuckled lightly and said, that's cute. Oh no, he didn't get it.... So, I exaggerated out the TO MA TOES part. Then he died, and our marriage made sense again. I love you from my head to my toes!!!!

100 Day Creativity Challenge (Days 8-14)

Hey Guys, I'm back- and trying to be even more creative than ever. I love hand lettering, and obviously it is what I think I am good at. But I am determined to be more "creative" in my creativity choices. So, for Day 8 I chose to learn to crochet. Sounds easier said than done, right? Well, you are correct. I was quite terrible. I first started with the chain, pretty easy. A little awkward at first, but then relatively easy. Then I had to move to the next level, that's when it got a little sloppy. But then I ended going up another 4 levels and it got better and better each time. Now I just need to learn something other than a single or double stitch.... What do you think of my #DAY8 ? Alright, moving on to Day 9. I thought I would mix my creativity up a little and make some delicious dessert. When it comes to desserts I usually stick with cookies, brownies, and ice cream. That's usually where I stay, and I enjoy it there- don't get me w...

Whole 30 Gumbo

Ya'll, I need to go to New Orleans right now. If this is healthy gumbo, Oh my goodness!!! I would be in heaven. Anyway, I found this Whole30 recipe of gumbo, I was skeptical, but it was amazing!!!! PLEASE TRY!!!! I think I needed to let it simmer a little extra, there was more liquid than I was expecting. Anyway, without further ado, here's how you make the easiest and most delicious weeknight or group party meal ever. Serves: 4 Time: 45 minutes- 1 hour (depends on how fast you cut vegetables) INGREDIENTS: 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil or Ghee (if you're cool like that) 12 oz Andouille Sausage (hard to find compliant, read your labels) slice into 1/2 inch thick coins 1 Red Bell Pepper (diced) 2 Ribs of Celery (diced) 1 Yellow Onion (diced) 2 Tablespoons Cajun or Creole seasoning (Can adjust if you don't like the spiciness) 1 (14.5 oz) Can Diced Tomatoes (drained) 2/3 Cup of Chicken Stock ( I used bone broth- tasted delicious, but might be be...
