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,

Simple blessings

I’m lying in bed, next to a snoring husband and my baby girl dogter sprawled out cozy as can be, while the rain falls down upon our roof. Gone are the days of spending a Saturday night downtown at a club, throwing beers back in a honky think, or galavanting around to anywhere with the lights on. And I’m not mad about it. Not even a little bit. There is tilt no place I’d rather be than with hunter, Roni and our comfy sweet little home happily netflixing and writing this here post. It’s a good feeling indeed. I count my blessings extra on nights like this and say a few additional prayers for love and comfort to continue on. I truly don’t ask for more than health, happiness, and love. Anything else is gravy. To simple blessings for all.

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. While I love modern discussions as much as the next girl, I’m aware sometimes it just doesn’t fit and you have to reset what isn’t working. 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...
