Making alternative eating easier on YOU!
Y’all!!! It’s February!! My second favorite month of the year (second only to December=Christmas), which means it’s the time of the year where we ALL get to celebrate my favorite thing in the entire world: love. That’s right- the mushy, flowery, glittery, pink-red-and-white everything kind. My heart is for celebration and hospitality, and this is … Continue reading “Month of BROWNIES!! This week: Vegan Chocolate Chip”
Helloooooo my precious readers!! I’m pumped! I’m caffeinated! I have nutrition flowing through my veins!! Why? You ask. Coffee smoothies!! And you know what else? Ladybird Coffee Bombs. Happy cacao. Vanilla Thunder. FOCUS. The flavors of these grass-fed butter, coconut oil, and collagen butter coffee “pucks” (they look like a beautiful Reese’s cup, but wayyyyy healthier) … Continue reading “SECRET Coffee Routine + Spicy Chocolate Coffee Smoothie”
Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies from Callie Blount on Vimeo. PALEO!!!!!!!!!! For some reason I felt I needed to shout that OUT. In my mind, I also equate “Paleo” with the Geico Caveman at the Country Club. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27Q5RE0q9Lo Not sure where that correlation began, but Paleo eating (in my mind) equals Cross Fit equals foraging … Continue reading “Taste Testing Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies!”
Y’all, it’s Thanksgiving week, and I don’t know about you, but I have work/life/blog details piling up in my mind like stacks of leftover turkey sandwiches. How are you guys feeling? How is life this week for you? I hope it’s been smooth as pumpkin butterscotch trifle. I think that this year, we should make recipe planning a … Continue reading “Pumpkin Spice Pumpkin Seed Chocolate Bark”
Ok everyone, it’s official: fall has arrived. Not only is it fabulous news that summer is over, here in the South it is officially 70 degrees at night and our formerly green leaves are fading into a light shade of orange. However, if someone could please share this news with the mosquitos that continue to bite the tops of … Continue reading “Peanut Butter Chocolate Energy Bars”
For those of you who may have spent the last week under a rock, or like one or two people I know (#roommates), have been so immersed in the winter Olympics that all you can think about is ice, snowboarders, and whether or not Sochi is actually a resort destination, I offer a friendly reminder: … Continue reading “Spicy Chocolate Sweetie-Pie”
It’s holiday time! And you know what that means. Dust off that Kool and the Gang record, put on a Christmas scarf, and sing it with me, “Ce-le-brate good times, come on!” Now in your deepest Alto, “It’s a Celebration!” And really, is there anything better than sparkly Christmas lights, fur trees loaded with ornaments, … Continue reading “Chocolate Spice Cake with White Wine Berry Glaze”
Some weeks, you just need to bake. And this week, the pull has been especially strong. The weather in the South has been unusually frigid-rain battered against my roof all day yesterday- and cold air continues to seep through the frames of gray, foggy windows. It’s at this point that my mind wanders to what … Continue reading “Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies”
It’s Labor Day weekend, and you know what that means? That’s right- it’s time for s’mores! For those of you living below the Mason Dixon line, the idea of roasting a marshmallow on a 95-degree afternoon using a open flame is about as appealing standing on the asphalt in your driveway wearing a down vest–and … Continue reading “Dark Chocolate S’mores with Salted Peanut Butter”
Happy Belated Valentine’s Day! For a blog devoted to luv, it is bit embarrassing that I missed the February 14 deadline for this recipe. To be fair, the treat I planned to debut was a bit of a sweet-potato-biscuit disaster. Marshmallows melted with chocolate do not become marshmallow fluff, they become liquid Tootsie-Roll, and my … Continue reading “Peanut Butter Chocolate Crunch Granola”
