A Different Way To Eat Zucchini
I know you are probably thinking do these two words even go well together, ZUCCHINI and FRIES.  We have an inside running joke in our family, where we send group text pictures to each other of our dinners and its plate presentation.

                    I love smoothies, but I have to admit sometimes you get bored of using the same fruits and veggies all the time.  Being from Jamaica, what I love most is the array of exotic fruits available, one of them being Sour Sop.  A few weeks […]

Make It Monday: Tea Specialty For Flu and Cold

Make It Monday: Chocolate Glazed Sweet Potato Donut
  My little 3 year old is obsessed with munchkins and doughnuts (which kid isn’t?).  I’m always looking for a much healthier alternative for “fun and yummy” foods.  Yesterday Little Model A and I decided to make our own healthy doughnuts.  Let’s just say he ate 2 and wanted a 3rd!  And each doughnut only […]

Make It Monday: Pumpkin Spice Makes Everything Nice
I think we can all agree that when we hear the word “Fall” we think of “Pumpkin.”  Pumpkin latte and coffee are the two things I look forward to every fall season.  A few weeks ago an article was released via Vani Hari’s site (love her by the way) that Starbuck’s Pumpkin Latte doesn’t include […]

Make It Monday: Rum Raisin Ice Cream
I love ice cream during the summer.  A couple of years ago my husband discovered harmful ingredients that are added to store bought ice cream.  That’s when we decided to invest in an ice cream maker and started to mix up our own recipes.  I don’t know about you, but the ingredients in ice cream […]
